Overview

Locals may know the Petersham Bowling Club is no ordinary bowlo, but they didn't know it was this extraordinary. According to the folks behind Phantasm #3, unexplained "electronic media aberrations" have been reported from deep in its basement for many years. Now a pair of inquisitive investigators, led by new media artist Alex Davies, are conducting experiments to try to unearth the truth beneath these phenomena. Assist the dedicated researchers in their quest to solve this mystery and ensure that their endeavours are not in vain by taking part in the enquiry.

Phantasm #3 is presented by Performance Space as part of the Halls for Hire series, which is taking place from August 28 to October 7. Artists have been invited to create site-specific works which are inspired by and staged in community spaces around Sydney. Also check out Brown Council's durational baking project, Mass Action: 137 Cakes in 90 Hours; the one-evening-only awakening of Newtown's St Stephen's Cemetery, Nighttime: Twilight; the appropriately post-Olympian Opening and Closing Ceremony; the September equinox celebration Spring Cursive; and the proletarian live sewing event The Making of the Flag: Give Us Back Our Unions (held on the 'World Day for Decent Work' at the Sydney Trades Hall).

Phantasm #3 is open 12-6, Wednesday to Sunday.
