Seemed much thinner and less exciting than previous years. Always hard to know whether it might've just been my particular route and time, and in this its fourth year some of the novelty might be expected to've worn off anyway, but looking at the program makes me think that might be an objective fact - perhaps due to the uncertainty until relatively close to the event about whether it was going ahead this year? Definitely felt the lack of the really large-scale cbd exterior projections that have characterised previous years, and nor was there any sense of discovery or scattered treasures throughout the landscape. Having said that:
Started around 3.30am, which wasn't actually that difficult given how all over the place my sleeping and other habits have been lately.

- it was still somewhat great to see the familiar face of the REB all lit up
- "The Dresses", down the very southern end in the gardens, was pretty (Tae Gon Kim)
- the NGV front projection was good ("Still Here" - Josh Muir)
- given how little else seemed to be happening, we spent some time with "Manifesto" in the chilly time just before sunrise
- sunrise was also pretty.
