In an exclusively commissioned performance featuring a 10-piece band and specially-made visuals, Ziggy Ramo Burrmuruk Fatnowna presented his debut album Black Thoughts like never before as part of the Sydney Opera House's live-streamed lockdown programme. A hip-hop reckoning through love, compassion, dispossession and systemic racism envisioned for listeners from all walks of life, the interdisciplinary performance sparked an ongoing creative relationship with the Opera House that culminated in the award-winning film ‘Little Things (feat. Paul Kelly)’ captured on the famous white Sails.

Created during a period of global turmoil surrounding the Black Lives Matters movement, pandemic lockdown and social distancing, the event featured illustrations by celebrated Perth-based artist Kambarni, animated live from the broadcast studio in an innovative expansion of how the live streamed framework can impact contemporary music experiences.
