24.01.2022 It's time to meet the heroes! Introducing BUSINESSMAN - the caped corporate crusader. He's mastered the art of the deal, defending superior contract terms from the forces of upper middle management. Wielding extraordinary capabilities in Microsoft Excel - he's ready to circle back and streamline some innovations before close of business (but spoiler alert - business never closes). It's time to get down to business. We won't tell HR if you don't. . #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @darwinfestival @BrisbaneFestival
23.01.2022 Brisbane, it's nearly time - are you ready to step in and save the day? .. #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts @metroarts @BrisbaneFestival @westvillagebrisbane @optikalbloc
23.01.2022 Nana nana nana nana, nana nana nana nana Bootman! This guy has a lot of boots. A deadly collection of stunning footwear. Some people think they must have dangerous weaponry built in - but really their only secret is charisma. Perhaps the true superpower all along was just slightly above average confidence? . #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @darwinfestival @BrisbaneFestival
22.01.2022 So far Darwin has saved 90 heroes in AVOIDABLE PERILS - the multi-city game of competitive heroics! TWO shows left. Can they reach 100 before the baton gets passed over to Brisbane Festival next month? Darwin's rescue rate is currently 68% and they have one character left to fully unlock! Will it happen tonight? If they finally unlock Polar Magnet, they might just unlock something else in the process... Time for a twist perhaps? #releasethekraken... . #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @darwinfestival @BrisbaneFestival Image by Elise Derwin See more
22.01.2022 DRESS REHEARSAL via @optikalbloc studio. Perils in progress... The kind of rehearsal that makes you sweat! Looking forward to unleashing trouble @darwinfestival tomorrow night. @metroarts @brisbanefestival #avoidableperils
19.01.2022 Not all heroes wear capes. But Craig does. Always techs in a cape, apparently. #avoidableperils @metroarts @brisbanefestival @westvillage_brisbane @optikalbloc
19.01.2022 Avoidable Perils is now open in Brisbane! Can our own home town beat Darwin’s high score of 70% saved?! Only time will tell... Catch the perils before they catch you!!! 6-9pm, Tues-Sat, until 19 Sept. ... The Common, @westvillage_brisbane #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts @metroarts @optikalbloc @brisbanefestival
18.01.2022 Half-boy, half-possum, full-force. When GYMPOSSUM completed his new years resolution against inconceivable odds, he became endowed with freakish athletic abilities and an extraordinary commitment to routine. Believe in the Gympossum-ble. Because if not, he'll meet you in the parking lot... .. #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts @metroarts @BrisbaneFestival @westvillage_brisbane @optikalbloc
18.01.2022 Lighthouses, Loneliness, Rising Oceans, Sinking Hearts.... We're currently developing a new work as part of a residency at Bundanon, supported by the legends at @bundanontrust. We're hiding out in the beautiful artist studios on the Shoalhaven River in NSW, flanked by wombats and the spirit of Arthur Boyd. The headphones are out, the devices are charged, and the stories are unravelling. For the next week, this is our process - Camp Counterpilot. Keep an eye on our daily stories for strange and unnecessary insights. #campcounterpilot #adrift #bundanonresidency
18.01.2022 Ice-Tini is the undisputed master of hydration - saving lives with the power of Dihydrogen Monoxide. A bartender by day, but hydro-conjurer by night, Ice-Tini is here to remind you to hydrate before you diedrate. What's cooler than being cool? Ice cold water! Alright alright alright alright alright alright. . #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @darwinfestival @BrisbaneFestival
15.01.2022 Brisbane, get ready to meet your heroes! Remember that time you opened that attachment, clicked that link, and entered your details? Well there's a good chance you may already know HACKSTER. Or at least she definitely knows you. Your accounts, your files, those photos at the back of your camera roll... Don't worry - she promises to use big data for good, not evil! And even if she hadn't been able to guess your password - her axe enables her to hack straight into the mainframe...... .. #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts @metroarts @BrisbaneFestival @westvillage_brisbane @optikalbloc
13.01.2022 NAPGIRL is putting the power back into power naps. This well-rested rebel is ready to relax, and bringing the masses with her into superior slumber. Wielding powers of mindfulness and unwavering calm, Napgirl just wants everyone to reach that state of perfect zen. When in doubt, nap it out! . #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @darwinfestival @BrisbaneFestival
13.01.2022 Meet CONSPIRATAURUS - the free-thinking conspiracist dinosaur. He's asking the big questions, and standing up to prove that there was no meteor shower. Extinction event?! What a cover-up. With the power to bend logic using the sheer forces of his mind, Conspirataurus just wants everyone to wake up to the truth. No, not that truth - the other truth. . #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @darwinfestival @BrisbaneFestival
11.01.2022 FANTASER may be small but her energy is electric. Danger danger - she might not be high voltage but she can produce enough energy to charge a smart phone - or perhaps very gently tase people. The recharger at large, sparks will fly when Fantaser turns it on! . #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @darwinfestival @BrisbaneFestival
09.01.2022 Safeguarder of snacks, protector of pastries, and crusader for the crumb - BISCUITEER is here to enable your sweetest of tooths! Stealing from the rich and distributing to the hungry, he's bound to appear when the catering just doesn't quite cut it. With Biscuiteer at large, it's crumbs for all and all for crumb! .. #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts @metroarts @BrisbaneFestival @westvillage_brisbane @optikalbloc
09.01.2022 Meet GRAMMARTRON - defender of prose! He's our protector of language, and corrector of typos. Brandishing semi-colons, and wrangling clauses; he's improving your language whether you wanted it or not! His invisible grammar waves will fix your wording before you've even noticed! When the punctuation's in a twist - whom might you call? Only one hero can handle a true apostrophiasco! . #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @darwinfestival @BrisbaneFestival
09.01.2022 Meet Van Glow - the radioactive impressionist with a luminescent creative flair! He's been making waves in the arts sector lately - microwaves, that is. He can glow in the dark, sure, but did you know he can also capture refined nuance in a pastel landscape? His fission statement has a lot to say, but most of his work can speak for itself (just don't get too close, yeah?). . #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @darwinfestival @BrisbaneFestival
08.01.2022 Final perils tonight! Last chance to influence the record, Brisbane!
05.01.2022 The world premiere of Avoidable Perils kicks off in Festival Park for @darwinfestival at 5pm tonight! Darwin, can you save our heroes before it's too late? We're counting on you! And by counting on you, we mean we'll be keeping score. If Darwin can't save these innocents, maybe Brisbane can do a better job next month?... Get ready: this inter-city game of death-defying cooperation is about to begin... . #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @darwinfestival @BrisbaneFestival
02.01.2022 Darwin! In two weeks, you made 119 daring rescues and unlocked all 12x of our heroes! But now you only have a few hours left to claim your rewards... See avoidableperils.com for a range of commemorative memorabilia, including these lasercut wooden fringe magnets, heroically handcrafted by @Felminghamdesign. Remember the rules though - these collectibles are only available for purchase by residents of the host city who saved them. Darwin, you have until 5pm before we lock up ...all of the characters again in preparation for Brisbane's turn! Brisbane, you'll have to save the heroes yourselves before you get the chance to take home your own super souvenirs. . #avoidableperils #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @darwinfestival
02.01.2022 Brisbane has one week left to prove themselves in this multi-city game of death-defying cooperation! The stats are looking good, but can the sunshine state maintain these standards for long enough to beat @darwinfestival's record?! Track the progress at avoidableperils.com... And Avoid the Perils at West Village, from 6pm. Tues-Sat this week! . #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @darwinfestival @BrisbaneFestival @westvillage_brisbane @optikalbloc
01.01.2022 Opening night went off with a bang! And a thud, and a squish, and a long scream into the void... So far, so good, Darwin - you managed to save 12 heroes in your first attempt! Unfortunately though, these four faced their tragic fates... We're sending our thoughts & prayers to BusinessMan, Conspirataurus, Van Glow & Napgirl. Who will make it through tonight? Shenanigans commence in Festival Park at 5pm (ACST)....

01.01.2022 Last chance Darwin! Final performance of Avoidable Perils for @darwinfestival has just begun! Your rescue rate is currently floating around 69% - can you bump this up before @BrisbaneFestival takes their turn at the leaderboard?! The clock is ticking...... #avoidableperils #BrisFest #MetroArtsAtBrisFest #metroarts #darwinfestival #DF20 @metroarts @optikalbloc Photo by Elise Derwin
