Simon Hunt reflects on his time in West Berlin, and a night spent hunting for a gay bar.

\r\n

Simon Hunt is a composer, performer, activist and writer who lectures in Media at the UNSW Faculty of Art & Design. He has won awards internationally as a filmmaker and composer, but is best known for his character ‘Pauline Pantsdown' - a drag simulacrum of politician Pauline Hanson - who enjoyed a top ten hit in the 1990s made from Hanson voice samples, and has more recently operated online as a virtual activist and satirist.
