            <text>In 1829-30 the explorer Charles Sturt and his party hauled a whaling boat over the mountains to sail downstream along the Murrumbidgee River to the Murray in search of an imaginary inland sea. Beginning in Sydney, the artists made a (miniature - paper) whaling boat to take along Sturt's trail, the boat acting as a transportation/transformation device for their journey into memory and imagination. Making paper boats with found material along the way, and then with videos and soundtracks, they updated Sturt's journey as a performative media event for the 21st century. Three soundtracks, three scenes and a pile of paper boats.&lt;a href="http://www.out-of-sync.com/InsearchSea/Insearch1.html"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</text>

              <text>In Search of the Inland Sea is a three part video/sound work, installation and performance event that remixes a journey of early Australian explorer, Charles Sturt, in which he hauled a whaleboat overland in search of an inland sea. As the artists record their journey into inland Australia, they carry paper boats with them. These boats intervene or feature in each of the narratives that are laid over physical places visited on the journey. In voiceover actors narrate scenes taken from genre movies.&lt;br /&gt;Gillian Fuller</text>
