Youngsters having fun in the tidal waves at Coogee

I visited Shushann in Coogee to do some mutual planning for the year and then went for a stroll to Coogee Beach. There were some large waves breaking over the tidal rocks, much to the delight of some local school leavers.

Newcastle Birding Research

I'm planning to spend a couple of days birding in Newcastle. I'll hire a car and camp one or two nights.  Here is a map I've created with good birding spots.

Data Dreams: Art and AI exhibit at the Contemporary Art Museum

I spent a very enjoyable morning exploring the Data Dreams: Art and AI exhibit at the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia. The exhibit brings together ten international artists to investigate the creative, philosophical and societal implications of artificial intelligence. The show uses immersive installations, AI-generated films, hallucinatory imagery and sculptural works to explore how AI reshapes perception, identity, power and what it means to be human in the digital age. It was very good. I especially enjoyed the more sensory, hallucinatory art works. Some of them were very meditative.
