Thank you Sue for this vivid story – I love the image of cigarette-reeking essays returned to students! What years were you a student of Peter? Lucas

I’ve only just discovered from Dirk de Bruyn this evening that Peter has been lost to us all. Lucas, thank you for sharing and starting this page of memories. Anecdotal stories, a favourite of Peter’s, he told so many good ones, here’s one to add to what Mike has shared above. As many will know, Peter’s favourite way of marking student essays was to travel up to his Toodyay bush block and spend the weekend huddled in the back of his ute inside its canopy, (he had yet to build his shack), to fastidiously read every word and to provide his comments and insights, which left many an essay reeking of cigarette smoke. He would spend the whole weekend doing this, not moving from his spot – these were his words in describing how he marked. The bush block was his place, his escape, but one weekend when he went up there he had taken with him in the back of his ute a large wooden picnic table. Once there, with no near neighbours, he proceeded to unload that large heavy wooden picnic table from the ute on his own. Low and behold, it was too much for one person but already in the midst of it with table heaved to his back Peter found himself no longer in control but suddenly underneath it, pinned to the ground. Nobody to hear him call for help he spent the night in this way with his arms and hands trapped beneath it also, struggling to dig himself out in this predicament, and fearing it could be the end. No access to his mobile phone, nobody knew he was in deep trouble. I can’t clearly remember how the story ended, but end it did do, as by morning he was free and lived to tell the tale. When he recalled the event to me sometime in the following weeks I remember gently scalding that doing a thing like that was quite dangerous, though many of us probably would have done the same thing. To tie this back to what Mike has written, I do wonder if the back problems that Peter had that he refers to may have been a result of that event. I’m not sure how many know this story of Peter, but I remember telling David Curtis about it and how shocked David was to hear the story.

As many have stated, Peter gave something so significant to Perth artists that can’t matched. He shared something so bloody amazing that changed the lives of many, me very much included. Thank you Peter. Thank you.

It’s been a long time since we last did this work! The previous blog posts were very useful in our set up, as these measurements are not in the users manual. This time we solved the height issue by using a 16mm project stand, which gets a bit higher than super 8 size stands. We were able to put both super8 projectors on the same 16mm stand. See a photo here:
https://photos.app.goo.gl/8TBndZSXQttbrArk6

The top of the projector stand is set to 137cm, and Louise’s projector sits on that. Then there is a 10cm tall ‘pedestal’ (made out of a cardboard box topped with a bit of plywood) to rise up Lucas’ projector base to 147cm.

This room is surrounded by a big black woollen curtain. It makes a difference, we’ve not performed before in a room with black walls. When performing, it’s harder to see what you’re doing, and you don’t get the ‘tripling’ effect of the image overflowing onto the back wall as much. Be good to chat with Guy about that, what his experience has been.

would pick me up from home, on his way through to UWA, Peter and David were a team at UWA, I had the great enrichment to be mentored by them both, encouraged, supported and included in their circle of happenings for the while, I ran the Verge Gallery office …and I initiated many projects, one of which was Drive-By, at about 2001 when I had enough of running the Verge office I arranged to pass it on to David and by extension Peter also became involved in that scene. It was a time that is really important in my life, all that I learnt from Peter and David was very much about the avante garde spirit. Punk if you li(k)fe; you need a little punk to start a fire! Definately firestarters light bearers, materialists-the stuff of performance and interventionists. Both Peter and David Bromfield are dearly remembered.

thanks Felix. Yes I think we can’t underestimate the impact of having Peter (and other art lecturers) embedded within the same faculty as architecture. Exposure to the work of Michael Snow is a real treat for any creative practitioner.
