I will be presenting an eBook copy of his book
to the Indonesian director, Garin Nugroho, at the conclusion of the panel
discussion about the background to Garin's latest film, Setan Jawa,
being held this Thursday, 23 February at 5.30 pm at the Sydney Myer Asia Centre
at the University of Melbourne.
(Garin, incidentally, is featured shooting a
film in the pictures(s) on the cover of my book.)
Details about this panel discussion are at the
following website (registration required if you wish to attend):
Screening of Garin Nugroho's Setan Jawa in
Hamer Hall at the Victorian Arts Centre, this Friday 24 February at 7.30 pm

silent film reportedly influenced by Murnau's Nosferatu will
be screened in Hamer Hall this Friday, with musical accompaniment jointly by a
gamelan orchestra from Central Java, and the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.
