Buzzcuts is
proudly brought to you by Express Media, a not-for-profit organisation
working with and for young people at a national level through
mentorship programs, a quarterly magazine Voiceworks and
arts projects such as Buzzcuts.
Express Media exists to enable young people to create their own culture. Focusing
on writers and artists under 25, Express Media aims to create a space for self-expression
and the exploration of a youth 'voice' rather than the parroting of a 'youth
line'. Striving for recognition of the creative skills, ideas, concerns and opinions
of young people, Express Media provides access to training, publishing and other
creative opportunities in order to nurture the next generation of Australia's
culture makers.
Express Media would like to thank Melbourne
Fringe, Mary-Jane Fenech, Kath Letch and Archie Cuthbertson @ 3RRR,
Bruce Berryman @ RMIT,
Mel Sherridan @ Beat,
Brett Cropley @ All
Media, and Megan Gannon
for their assistance in presenting this project. We would also like to thank
our many volunteers, without whom this project would not be possible. |
