This sign was located in the foyer of Carriageworks, the arts venue located in the former Eveleigh Rail Yards. The large scale installation was created for a recent exhibition called Rage: Celebrating 25 Years. It celebrates the 25 years of the television show "rage" on ABC TV, the longest running music television program still in production. The exhibition documented the history of music video from Australia and around the world that has inspired generations. This artwork is made up of neon lights and old fat back television sets screening old episodes of the show. In this context, "rage" means to party hard.
That's cool ;)

While it probably makes me rather uncool to say it, that is so cool.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for the all the light display posts. They get better every year.
It's a fun sign made great by the reflection.
ReplyDeleteEG CameraGirl, I thought the reflections on the wet ground outside, after the rain, added something to it.
ReplyDeleteThat's so inventive! Love it.

lots of interesting effects in this shot..
ReplyDeleteGreat sign. Superb capture with the reflection. Never heard of the show. Don't like the emotion. LOL!
ReplyDeleteFrancisca, the title is not about an intense form of anger but slang for partying hard and long. Perhaps it's another case of uniquely Australian slang. I'll add something to the post. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha... who says English is English? There was a time I was a party hardy. Now not so much.
ReplyDeleteI usually remember to explain Aussie slang if ever I use it but it's amazing how many times I don't even realise some words we use are not universal or uniquely Australian.
