Sam Sejavka

[5] Australian musicologist, Ian McFarlane, described their singles, which "echoed the sounds of David Bowie and Brian Ferry crossed with Magazine and The Boys Next Door.

[6] Fellow founders were Ross Farnell on bass guitar (ex-Daily Planet), Carl Manuel on drums and Gus Till on keyboards (both former latter day members of the Ears).

[6] McFarlane noticed, "[they] adopted a sophisticated, quasi-decadent look and style that drew from English antecedents like Roxy Music, Japan and Psychedelic Furs.

"[6] The fictionalised bio-pic and musical film, Dogs in Space (December 1986), written and directed by his friend and former flat mate, Richard Lowenstein, drew inspiration from various episodes of Sejavka's life during the late 1970s.

[8] In 1995 his play, All Flesh is Glass, took him to New York as part of an exchange programme organised by New Dramatists and the Australian National Playwright's Centre.

[9] Sejavka appeared in stage productions including: The Death of Peter Pan, Quintessence and Shipwreck!, all directed by Robert Chuter and produced at La Mama Theatre, Carlton.

He later worked on Ambergris – set on an island off the coast of Queensland, dealing with beauty and greed, and As Above So Below – a play about the occult practices of the poet, W. B. Yeats.
