If you missed out on seeing Transient Nature at the Tibetan Buddhist Institute, don't despair!

Monks from Sera Jey Monastery will be creating another beautiful sand mandala at the State Library of South Australia this week. It's a centuries-old practice, rarely seen outside a monastery.

This free event is open from Thursday 27 until Sunday 30 August at the State Library of South Australia (corner of North Terrace & Kintore Avenue, Adelaide).

If you missed out on seeing Transient Nature at the Tibetan Buddhist Institute, don't despair! Monks from Sera Jey Monastery will be creating another beautiful sand mandala at the State Library of South Australia this week. It's a centuries-old practice, rarely seen outside a monastery.

According to Tibetan Buddhist tradition, simply seeing a sacred mandala is believed to create positive karmic imprints, inspiring compassion, wisdom, and inner peace. Experience for yourself the tradition that influenced South Australian artist Benjamin Liew’s recent photographic work (pictured).

I'm talking to a few musicians this week, Romanie Assez, known as Romanie; there's a very short and sweet check-in with Harley and a relatively brief conversation with Djawarray. They're each on a journey, compelled to do what they're doing for one reason or another; we'll unpick that a little, and enjoy listening to their music. I'm also playing new music from MyCherie, Sugar Wife, Dugong Jr.

The bulk of what I'm playing on the show is Australian music some of it stone-throw local, some of it from further down the road in every direction. These days you can listen back to the show too.

Interesting to chat with Romanie about her creative process and plan to write a song with each support act on her tour.

★ It’s Not That Funny, we’re touring the album around Australia !!! ★

tickets on sale now for a very special run of album shows, where i will be writing a song before the show with the local support and we invite you into our worlds on the stage whilst also playing our own rock shows. this album means so much to me and the concept of this tour is something i have been dreaming of for a very very long time. i feel very lucky to have received some funding (shout out Creative Australia ) to be able to do this and bring my band along to cities we have never been before, hopefully see you all at the show LFGGGGGG
