Creatine supplements have long become increasingly popular as social media influencers tout their benefits. What does the evidence say?

King Stingray is a story of lifelong friendship. Growing up together in Yirrkala North-East Arnhem Land (a very remote Aboriginal community on in the northern tip of Australia) founding members Theo Dimathaya Burarrwanga (frontman) and Roy Kellaway (guitar) have been playing and making music together for as long as they can remember. The band blend ancient indigenous melodies (Yolŋu Manikay) with surf, indie and funk influences to create their unique “Yolŋu surf-rock” sound which has captivated the nation. Hailed as "one of the most exciting acts in the country today" (NME), King Stingray took out triple j's "Unearthed Artist of the Year" J Award for 2021, NME Australia's "Best New Act From Australia" and Rolling Stone Australia's "Best New Artist" award all before an album was released. Their much-anticipated debut LP "King Stingray" dropped in August 2022, supported by a typically cheeky campaign encouraging fans to take #kingstingday off to celebrate the album’s release. The band was nominated for a whopping five ARIA Awards (including a win for the "Michael Gudinski Breakthrough Artist"). In 2023 the band won the "Australian Music Prize." A total of five singles from the album made it into triple j’s Hottest 100 making it the second most successful Aussie debuts in the history of the countdown. King Stingray on Facebook / Instagram

Join us for Reframing the Narrative, a powerful evening of thought-provoking conversations, art, and community, centered on the rich and resilient stories of the Black experience in San Diego. This immersive event is part of "Beyond the Line", the current San Diego Made Factory My Creative Journey Residency by filmmaker Rose Sanchez, which explores the intersection of history, storytelling, and community empowerment. The Line represents the long-standing systems of redlining and structural inequality. Beyond is about breaking through those barriers—reclaiming space, shaping new narratives, and building generational wealth and identity within the Black community. What to Expect: Three engaging talks from key Black community voices: Ramel Wallace: "The San Diego Black Experience" Herman Collins: "Redlining, the Promise Zone, and Our Historical Footprint" Rose Sanchez: "Film and Art as a Vessel for Black History" Enjoy a curated selection of Black artist vendors, showcasing and selling original works that reflect the evening’s themes of resistance, resilience, and vision. This event is more than a lecture series—it’s a living archive, a creative gathering space, and an invitation to reimagine what legacy and liberation can look like when the community authors its own story.
