How do we talk about love and sex in a world where ‘boy meets girl’ just doesn’t cut it any more? As we sift through thousands of years of tradition, how do we know what to throw out – and what to keep? And will our kids all grow up to be bisexual nymphomaniac porn addicts?

This course examines Melbourne’s music culture with a particular focus on the way music works to generate memories. We welcome some of the city’s finest songwriters, musicians, radio presenters, venue owners, and academics to the MFU to discuss their involvement in Melbourne music and to explore the relationship between music, memory and place. This course attempts to address both the intellectual and visceral qualities that song can communicate, and we hope that you will join us in sharing your memories and stories that are connected with Melbourne and music.
