Sea Stories | Roslyn Oades and collaborators (AUS)
Grab a free coffee, pull up a deck chair and settle in for an intimate, uplifting journey into the headspace of some extraordinary humans.
Where does the human mind go when its challenged to survive, endure or succeed? Inspired by the experiences of elite athletes, Sea Stories takes you into the meditative zone.
As the sun rises over Broadbeach you'll hear a collection of first-person stories that poetically connect with the ever-changing seascape before you.
Based on interviews with Gold Coast locals, Sea Stories explores the relationship between dreaming, discipline, resilience and water.
Take a listen to the Sea Stories soundtrack...
