Welcome

Hi, I’m George, former Baroque composer and all-round bon vivant. Days out are so much fun, and if you’re anything like me you’ll be wanting to get out and about as often as possible. So buckle up your shoes and join me as I go here, there and everywhere. Wig, clavichord, go!

Engineering Block B Building, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Jul 2021. Another view of the University of Melbourne's Engineering Block B Building (Civil & Civic, 1972–73), this time with central Melbourne skyscrapers in the background.
Engineering Block B Building, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Jul 2021. The Engineering Block B Building (Civil & Civic, 1972–73) at the University of Melbourne's Parkville campus is a notable example of Brutalism "in its undiluted form," which began to appear in central Melbourne in the 1970s ('Melbourne’s Marvellous Modernism: A Comparative Analysis of Post-War Modern Architecture in Melbourne’s CBD 1955-1975', National Trust Australia (Victoria), Sept 2014). It is certainly a very attractive building.

Charles Grimes Bridge, Docklands, Melbourne, Jul 2021. The Charles Grimes Bridge, a reinforced concrete and steel bridge built in 1975, spans the Yarra River in Melbourne's Docklands and looks very handsome in concrete grey with orange trim. The Jim Stynes Bridge, built in 2014 and named after a legendary footballer, passes underneath.
