Description Richard Meale’s homage to Rimbaud is an iconic work of
Australian modernist art which, like the pilotless boat of the poem from which it draws its title, ‘composed itself’ in an August Adelaide terrace at the start of the Dunstan era, 50 years ago. A slightly surreal doco by the young Peter Weir captures the spirit and ironies of the age. The incomparable Geoffrey Collins plays the solo Meale wrote for him (Mélisande) and two joyous pieces
by Ross Edwards provide fresh bush-scented relief from one and marimba magic from the other.
