# Maeve Woods

Maeve Woods is an Australian artist based in Tasmania.

## Early life and education

Woods was born in Melbourne.
Following an international trip to London and Paris in the late 1940s, Woods began taking classes at the then National Gallery Schoolin Melbourne. Studying alongside friends, including Fred Williams, Lesley Lawson, and Rod Clark, Woods came under the tutelage of George Bell. Bell's emphasis on en plein air excursions and collaborations with others stayed with Woods, with some of this early word receiving prominence in the early 1950s, with patronage from leading Australian author Patrick White.

## Career

Working extensively from the early 1950s across a range of media, Woods keenly engaged in Melbourne's burgeoning experimental jazz scene, often employing techniques of improvisation and rhythm in their work.
Moving to Mittagong, New South Wales, in the late 1950s, Woods actively engaged with Sydney-based artists and musicians, later holding exhibitions in Barry Stearn's Paddington gallery in 1963. Throughout the mid-1960s through to the mid-1970s Woods traveled extensively throughout Australia and the world to undertake sessional teaching in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. Wood held her first significant solo exhibition in 1970 at the Watters Gallery in the eastern suburbs of Sydney. Working across a broad range of abstract and architectural collages, Woods began employing postcards and found objects to construct unstable collages that evoked the work of Pontormo and Tintoretto.
Working across film and slides throughout the 1980s, Woods kept painting and collage close by, often exhibiting in Melbourne and Sydney.
Living in Victoria's Dandenong Ranges from 1988 to 1998, Woods continued to paint, using borrowed images and surfaces to explore the natural world around her. Since 1998 Woods has been living and working in Hobart, Tasmania, exhibiting works regularly throughout the 2000s and 2010s. Referring to their most recent work at the time, Woods said in 2013:
"My interest in the colour informs all the works and their titles. Hidden on the reverse side of the support, a frame gives strength but does not conceal the wild paper’s ragged edges. As the painting is slightly raised in advance of the wall, a shadow is cast and this peripheral fact can interact with after-images and other ephemera evoked by the paintings."

## Work

Woods has worked across every media, with particular success in painting, collage, and film. Retaining an interest in the surface since those early lessons with George Bell, much of Woods' work concerns itself with squares and frames. Often abstract, Woods has remained restless in their pursuit of different surface qualities in painting, collage, and cinema – often drawing on cinematic history ranging from Hitchcock to Bunuel. Their work is held in numerous state and national collections, including: Muswellbrook Regional Art Centre.

| The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings | |
On All About Jazz, Dan McCleneghan observed "On Keep Searchin' Turre pays tribute to his own musical/life philosophy on a set of forward-looking original (mostly) compositions, performed with a group of stellar musicians ... Turre mixes up the sound with different mutes throughout, and adds, again, the hollow, peacefully haunting timbre of the conch shell on the closing title track. An excellent set by an ever-searching artist".
In JazzTimes, David Whiteis stated "Turre and his bandmates take us on a journey that’s spiritually uplifting, to be sure, but also hard-swinging and, for the most part, ebulliently down-to-earth and joyful".

# Beyond Time

Beyond Time aka Shadow of the Obelisk: Delve Into the Corridors of Time is a 1997 full motion video adventure game developed by Jones and Jones Multimedia and published by DreamCatcher Interactive.

## Development

The background of Jones and Jones Multimedia employees included theatre, fiction, literature, and art, and the company's video game output (including this game) combined these aspects together. They aimed to include genuine art and historical information to make it appealing and long-lasting. They set the game in locations that had an air of mystery and fascination. The team spent more than a year doing art history research to have a better understanding of the architectural worlds which were being created in the game. They turned their research into 3D representations; while they didn't recreate existing structures, they incorporated elements that they observed. The team aimed to add 2D animation and sound effects to as many screens as possible to give a sense of a lived-in world, for instance a bird flying across the sky. A unique game engine was made for the title.

## Critical reception

Review score :
| Publication | Score |
| PC Games | F |
Quandary thought the game's short length let it down. Just Adventure and Adventure Gamers described the game as a watered-down Timelapse-type experience. Game Revolution thought the graphics were underwhelming. Adventure Classic Gaming criticised the game's "plodding, chatty, confused storyline". Computer Gaming World said it "wants to be Myst" and fails at it. PC PowerPlay deemed the game a "dry, humorless, dull, and pretty monotonous" Myst-clone. It received a score of 78 from FamilyPC.

### Awards and nominations

The game was the Runner-up for the "Coaster of the Year" award in the April 1999 issue of Computer Gaming World.

# Gromphadorhina oblongonota

Gromphadorhina oblongonota (often misspelled oblongata or oblongonata), the wide-horned hisser, is a large, flightless species of hissing cockroach from southern Madagascar, and one of four members of the genus Gromphadorhina. This species is common in the pet trade, but it is difficult to distinguish from G. portentosa and is commonly confused with it, although oblongonota tends to be significantly larger and somewhat darker than portentosa.

## As pets

All four known Gromphadorhina species are widely kept as exotic pets, with G. portentosa being arguably the most common. Many pet dealers, unaware of the fact that there are four species in the genus, classify their stock as portentosa, even though they are selling oblongonota, mixtures of portentosa and oblongonota, or hybrids of these two species.
