Process invites you to the rather unofficial 2010 institute of architects awards wrap-up.

In April 2009 British film maker Nick Ahlmark went to Paris for a weekend to shoot a documentary about controversial Australian performance artist Stelarc for Spike Jonze's VBS.TV. The resulting 17 minute film, Stelarc: The Man with Three Ears follows the Melbourne born and bred Stelarc as he sets up a retrospective exhibition of his work and talks about his most recent project, The Extra Ear. Stelarc has had a construct of an ear made of stem cells from his rib cage implanted onto his left arm and aspires to use bluetooth technology to make it actually function. This special screening - an Australian premiere - will feature a directors cut of the film with both Nick Ahlmark and Stelarc in attendance for a Q & A
