Jack Ladder: You Won’t Be Forgotten (When You Leave)
The first time we were meant to film Jack Ladder was at a chicken shop on Marrickville Road. Ladder was recording his new album at the time and the band had scheduled a lunch break at an iconic fluorescent dive. I had imagined, like a scene from a 70s musical, we would turn up and the whole shop would erupt in a spontaneous outburst of song – milkshakes would whiz down the counter, kids would twist on swivel stools, and Ladder would take center stage singing into his chiko roll. It didn’t work out that way in the end and it was 6 months before I heard from Ladder again.

The dog races was Ladder’s idea. Tucked behind the city and the sea, Wentworth Park was oddly perfect. The vast amphitheater flushed with lights and the dedicated regulars who ambled around made for an energetic and patriotic setting. Ladder mentioned he was moving to New York in a matter of weeks; what a send off.

However, if we are talking simply about the sensuous differentiation of one kind of subjectivity from another, bats from those without a sonar modality, sighted humans from ones that are blind at birth, it’s hard to see how the blank wall isn’t there from the start and forever. ,
