*The Picnic* was an site-specific art event spanning 4 locations over 4 hours in October 2000. DEVILS FOODsmOver 70 artists and designers presented new works, with a live MUD connecting artists and audiences. *The Picnic* employed the theme of a temporarily emplaced social event to trace new psychogeographies between and within public spaces and art practices in New Zealand and an emerging digital awareness.

in 2002 a book and CD with music and animations was launched at ARC Cafe in Dunedin, with an associated event *The Picnic International Party*. Images here are from the book showing work by Douglas Kelaher, Layla Rudneva-Mackay, Penny Hagen, Regan Gentry.
