Transmission Lines 1955 - 1974 will be presented as part of the Freestyle Books exhibition at the State Library of Queensland. The exhibition features artists' books from the collection and explores means and methods of redefining the book as a contemporary artwork. The show opens 27 June and runs until 12 October at the SLQ Gallery, Level 2, State Library of Queensland at South Bank. The program also includes floor talks, a symposium, exhibition tours and film works. I'll be discussing this work and some ideas about online technologies, writing and publishing on 16 August at noon at the SLQ Auditorium 2, level 2.

Transmission Lines 1955–1974 is a project by Linda Carroli. It documents my father’s working life as a rigger and linesman with the Electric Power Transmission and its Italian parent company. He kept a photographic record of his working life and the photographs featured in this map are his personal photographs from Australia and Italy in the period 1955 to 1974. He commenced work in Italy in 1954 and remained working with EPT until 1975.
