‘Tap Dancing in a Minefield’: Tony Hall shoe-shuffles through another job interview; Anthony Carew talks to Brooklyn-based band Yeasayer about their unique sound in ‘Simply Indefinable’; and in ‘Roving Eye’: photographer Jessie Boylan journeys to the scorched Top End, which burns for much of the year.
