The Australian Dream? 🏡 - Last week I was fortunate to get to attend the launch of the new exhibition The Australian Dream? (sl.nsw.gov.au/exhibitions/aust…) at the State Library of NSW. It’s part of their Year of Architecture (sl.nsw.gov.au/about/about-libr…), and it focuses on Australia’s fixation with home ownership, property, and the mythical quarter-acre block. I invited my friends Hank and Megan to come along, and we felt very fancy rubbing elbows with architects, designers, and politicians from across the city.
Dr. Caroline Butler-Bowdon, the State Librarian, kicked things off by talking about how the exhibition came about, and thanking everyone who contributed to the project. We also heard from Dr Kirsten Orr, CEO of the NSW Architects Registration Board, who supported the exhibition.
Next we heard from curator Anna Dearnley, who focuses on developing and curating the Library’s architectural collection. (I was surprised to learn that right now, the State Library has pretty much the preeminent collection of architecture materials in NSW.) She told a couple stories of working with co-curator Tim Ross, including one where he joined a group of experts looking at a photo of new apartment construction in St. Peters. She said the experts were focused on the brutalism of the photo, with earthworks and diggers in front of a generic apartment building. “But that’s somebody’s home,” he said. “To them it’s probably perfect.” She said that his perspective was so helpful, and it inspired a project to document some of the new development in suburbs like Parramatta. Many of the people in the photos, she said, were actually there at the launch event.
And lastly, we got to hear from Tim himself. (Wikipedia’s disambiguation (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Ross) is particularly good: “Australian comedian, design nerd and radio host.”) He told a couple stories about growing up in rural Victoria, like how there was once a copperhead in his childhood sandpit so his Dad whacked it with garden hoe. And because his Dad was a chemist, they put it in formaldehyde and for years he’d take it to school Show and Tell. He also talked about his mother, who had previously been a GP. He recalled her hanging nappies on the Hills Hoist and having an epiphany that her lift needed to be about more than this, and how it inspired her to go back to being a doctor. He talked about how notions of housing in Australia had changed over the years, with fun data points like the explosion in petrol lawn mower ownership. We talk a lot about property in Australia, Tim said, but we don’t talk enough about home.
With the formalities out of the way, the exhibition was finally open. It’s a fairly small space, and I plan to go back with Rodd so I only had a very quick look around. I especially liked this drawing of the Beachcomber House by Nino Sydney (beachcomber web-goddess.org/archive/79037

She’s all too willing to stand up and speak out 100% against her own best interests and judgement. To eat shit and argue the official stance with conviction regardless her personal stance.
It makes me wonder how much (if at all) she argues her personal stance.
How do you argue against someone who very well may agree with you but is willing to assert the opposite of their potential beliefs so strongly and purposefully?

We are watchin a 70s movie about a ragtag band of rebels who are trying to take down some manner of evil galactic empire using the power of laser swords. It is DEFINITELY NOT STAR WARS (1977) we are watching a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT move that has NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with Star Wars, you can tell because it is called Starcrash (1978 or 1979 I dunno I guess this movie is so epic that it took to years to come out), which is a very different name, look there is not even a space after the word "Star"

La imagen muestra un tweet del usuario "Poder del Consumidor" ([@]elpoderdelc) que advierte sobre los Takis Blue Heat. El tweet menciona que estos snacks contienen glutamato monosódico, un aditivo con efectos neurotóxicos comprobados. Aunque existe un debate sobre sus efectos, investigadores a favor de la salud pública han comprobado su neurotoxicidad y su asociación con la obesidad. Se incluye un enlace para más información.
A continuación, se presenta una radiografía del producto "Takis Blue Heat de Barcel". La sección "Nuestra Valoración" recomienda evitar su consumo debido a las altas cantidades de calorías, sodio y aditivos dañinos. Se propone como alternativa los taquitos de deshebrada con tortilla de maíz azul.
La sección "Sellos de Advertencia" destaca el exceso de calorías y sodio, con 584 calorías y 1,562 mg de sodio por cada media bolsa de 120 g. Se menciona que el 51% de las calorías provienen de grasa.
En la sección "Publicidad", se señala que el producto se presenta como una botana "divertida e intensa", pero su consumo en exceso puede tener repercusiones negativas en el organismo.
La sección "Aditivos" detalla que el glutamato monosódico es neurotóxico, y se mencionan los colorantes amarillo 5 y azul 1, que son altamente alergénicos. Se señala que el amarillo 5 se asocia con déficit de atención e hiperactividad en niños.
En la parte inferior, se incluyen iconos que indican la cantidad de sodio (1,562 mg), calorías (584 kcal), y el aditivo glutamato monosódico. También se menciona la fecha de consulta: 25 de mayo de 2025.
