Traditionally, a wayzgoose was a celebration at the end of a printer’s year, a night off in the late fall before the work began of printing by candlelight. According to the OED, the Master Printer would make for the journeymen “a good Feast, and not only entertains them at his own House, but besides, gives them Money to spend at the Ale­house or Tavern at Night.”

Paul Thomas, Tim Morton
28 August, Newtown, Sydney: following an encounter the day prior at the National Institute for Experimental Arts, they meet again. A fluid discussion around art, perception, philosophy, vision, probabilities, and physics resulted—transforming into an activity of mobile phone photography—a photo-walk, a means of engaging with the world. The walk down King Street is a visual discussion, collected observations of things noted, a probability map, and a becoming, “like the emergence of another world.”
