living document, written by Adem Jaffers 2013-2025.<EXCERPT>
In the wake of the Max-Q ‘Monday Night by Satellite’ music video, and during the production of Third Eye’s music videos, ‘The Real Thing’ and ‘Pray’, a period spanning c.1987-90. Director Jeff Jaffers and musician Ollie Olsen lived together at Marine Parade in St Kilda. They hosted weekly gatherings centered around emergent technologies at their home.These informal gatherings brought together interesting and regular guest speakers to discuss all things Tekno-Cyberdelic. Covering topics ranging from modems, computers, chaos theory, cyberpunk ethos, virtual reality, science fiction, futurism, techno/acid-house (electronic) music and other related topics.
This informed the exciting ideals of the time and marking an incredibly formative and mind-expanding time of collaborations. For me personally, a passionate dive into digital and analogue video art, the underpinning impetus for the Cyberthon’s.
