Lots of people getting pissed off about this crud of a project. Its being tied to Walsh's general crassness and its incongruity with the idea of a cultural precinct.
The Architects listed in the original idea haven't replied to my emails yet. I'll start slinging it their way as well if necessary.  |
If there are lots of people opposing the project you need to get organised. Otherwise you risk looking like a lone nutter. I'm not sure of the best way to get the ball rolling but these days people tend to use Facebook and Twitter; I don't use either but every time I hear of a campaign they have a Facebook page. Also consider starting a petition on Change.org.
The banner on you car sound like a good idea, depending on how much you get around, but large banners cost a fair amount of money for a well made one that will last. If you do have a protest group or Facebook page advertise it on the banner(s). Try hitting the local media. Most ABC local radio stations are on the look-out for local stories, especially ones that land on their desk, and you will hit the right demographic there (bleedin' heart greenies, chardonay socialists and other NIMBY types
).
Good luck and keep us posted.
