Helipad Studio acknowledges the Wulgurukaba people as the traditional owners of Gurrumbilbarra and Yunbenun. We pay our respects to traditional owners and elders, past, present, and emerging, and to Aboriginal people as the first artists here in so-called Australia.

DESCRIPTION:

Nice people with soft smiles share rhythms.
A smooth glistening paired with tasty expression of self.
Comfort
Friends with your friends, with my friends we'll danceIntend bliss
Glide as you are, into thumping tranquility so we can bathe in the beauty of others
Enemies nowhere
Only clouds throughout this experimental void,
Non threatening.
Open
Illuminate from the feet up, then move one shoe-print at a time. Curious minds.. Questions alike of unknown yet welcoming impressions
Felt over the whole skin.
the mind can hover freely
Up, out, and away..It's the birth of new ecology; a nest of interest... visually/spatially intrigued, knowing to chase no meaning.It’s a safe place up here..

NIMBUS; an experimental arts and music event. Float into a dreamy world at your fave local, Heydays, though the space is re-imagined; filled with all the creative, quirky, and nice folks of T'ville. There's vocals in the carpark, beats in the roasting room, and various other cross-form shenanigans, amalgamating to an artistic social oasis.

NIMBUS is for curious minds. NIMBUS is a safe place. NIMBUS is friendly. NIMBUS is art. NIMBUS is wtf. NIMBUS is freedom to fully express yourself. NIMBUS is some seriously good techno. NIMBUS is a harp. NIMBUS on a card. NIMBUS is the cloud you can reach. NIMBUS is a feeling you can't teach.
