UPDATE: Good news! Due to overwhelming demand, a new 2nd event will be announced soon. Details about when the new one goes on-sale will come in an upcoming post. Or sign up to my newsletter to be notified, link in my bio.

It’s 1879 and I cordially invite you to a gathering to talk to the dead... but will the dead talk back? 

As darkness falls, join me in the oldest majestic hall of State Library Victoria for a candlelit séance experiment inspired by Melbourne’s uncanny past. 

Drawing on my fellowship research into 19th-century mediumship in the @library_vic archives, this immersive performance lecture merges historical storytelling, interactive rituals and psychological experiments to resurrect a forgotten era of science, superstition and supernatural spectacle. 

Plus, for all you mystery/history nerds, if you join us earlier at 8pm, we’ve set up a gallery with a special collection viewing of rare books and artefacts about ghost communication. 

This event is supported by the City Of Melbourne Arts Grants and State Library 
Victoria. @cityofmelbourne @whatsonmelb @library_vic #melbmoment #cityofmelbourne

I made these Boba Fett inspired custom sneakers! I based them on my kids’ Lego mini-fig version of Boba Fett and learned how to make them at a wonderful workshop @shoe_school last year. Happy #StarWars Day #may4th.

UPDATE: The event now on sale. Oct 28, 2026. See link in bio. 

Sceptic or believer? I had too much nerdy fun presenting some findings from my State Library Victoria fellowship research into séances of late-1800s Melbourne, at Salon D’Arc earlier this month. 

Stay tuned! This work-in-progress pilot was an ace milestone towards realising my final fellowship outcome: a full immersive theatrical SÉANCE re-enactment in a Victorian-era chamber … yes, it’s confirmed for October 2026!

Like a kid in a haunted candy shop, I got to film in the dead of night at @library_vic to explore some of my Library Fellowship research findings into séances during 19th Century Melbourne. Full Video drops on #Halloween on State Library Victoria YouTube and on my socials. Expect Spirits Slates, hot dead prime ministers, a book ‘written’ by a ghost and some great work from @tinyempirecollective, Jodi from the Alma collection and best bud security @djandrewmcclelland.

“The Spirit Hand” is one of the curiosities that I have come across as part of my @library_vic research Fellowship to uncover Melbourne’s historical fascination with séances and mediumship. 👻

Hidden away inside a grey archive box in the WG Alma Collection, the Spirit Hand was originally used in a Spiritualist-themed conjuring act to evoke one the most common means of spirit communication: table rapping. 🫳

After being examined by sceptical witnesses, a sheet of glass would be suspended above the floor and this uncanny wooden hand placed upon it. Apparently, the Spirit Hand could answer any question from the audience by “rapping” (tapping sharply) upon the glass with its wooden fingers. One rap for “yes”, two raps for “no” and three if it was “uncertain”. At any time during the act, the wooden hand and glass sheet could be inspected for any hidden mechanisms, magnets, threads or trickery. At the end of the routine, supposedly the hand would slide off the glass at its own volition into the hands of the performer…

Solid, eerie and lifeless, this item appears to be a full scale replica of a woman’s hand and sits on my own gloved hand like a cold handshake. On inspection, it’s devoid of any mechanical tell-tale of its workings. I have my theories about the less than supernatural method of the phenomenon, but what is more of a mystery to me is why people of yesteryear would need to ‘talk to the hand’? Did they really believe? Or was communing with the dead 💀 simply entertainment? (👋*rap *rap *rap)

Happy #Halloween.
