Unleashing of the ‘Beast’
There once was a farm tractor and it was transformed. But why and how? Make sure you are at the forecourt from the beginning to reserve your seat for the TRACTOR TATTOO 2012. Fun for the family with exhibitions, entertainment and children’s activities.
Experience the Tattoo of events, arriving in and out of the stages. Be impressed by the talent in the region, feel a shiver down your spine from the lone piper and keep an eye out for that Tractor!
Feel the rhythm, the horsepower of the showpieces and the show getting louder and louder. Sense the atmosphere leading into the unveiling of the ‘beast’.
Be excited by what you are about to see, never seen in the world before, a ‘beast’ of percussion, a musical tractor that will be owned by it’s instrumentalists. Tractor Music for this section was composed by Peter Rankine and the Tractor designed
and built by Steve Langton.
Tractor Tattoo 2012 is a community arts and cultural project based around an event featuring the transformation of an old tractor into a playable musical instrument and the composition of an original piece of music for that event and a month of visual arts projects across the region. Funding for the musical instrument and composition component of the project has been provided by the Regional Arts Fund, Australia Council for the Arts and Arts Queensland.
A tractor is synonymous with a rural area whether you are a farmer, a tree changer or a child at school. Tattoo was chosen as the Edinburgh Tattoo is famous worldwide for its musical performance (a musical performance is a part of the project) and tattoos are also an art form.
