We saw an opportunity to connect audiences into work that was beyond the fringes, and offer artists opportunities to widen their community. Although that mission could well be endless, online networks now afford artists easier access to fans and supporters, in ways we could not have imagined five years ago. This therefore feels like a good moment to conclude, to reflect on the collective achievements of all the artists involved, and to showcase some of the work that has made the project so compelling.\u201d<br \/>\nIn addition to the &#8216;Passages&#8217; compilation trilogy, New Weird Australia\u2019s netlabel, Wood &amp; Wire, will release its final album featuring exclusive soundtracks recorded for FBi\u2019s \u2018<em>Ears Have Ears<\/em>\u2019 experimental music program, with extended material from\u00a0<strong>Fatti Frances, Rites Wild, Hollow Press<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Cycle~ 440<\/strong>.<br \/>\n<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Tracklisting.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>New Weird Australia,\u00a0Passages, Volume One<\/strong> (NWA017A)<br \/>\nCurated by Stuart Buchanan<br \/>\n1.
