Edition 338
Thanks to the seductive appeal of TV and film, vampires are cool again: bitten by TV-series True Blood, Monique Hohnberg ponders the mass appeal of the undead in ‘Blood Lust’; in ‘Art of Darkness’, Anthony Morris explores the eternal reign of cinematic vampires; and in ‘Caught in the Twilight’, self-confessed ‘Twi-Hard’ Emily Wan explains what it’s like to be possessed by the popular vampire romance, Twilight.
Also in this issue:
Lindy Burns charts the industrial fall and artful rise of downtown Newcastle, NSW, in ‘Urban Renewal’; George Dunford chats to Big Issue columnist Mic Looby about his novel approach to guidebooks in ‘Looking for Looby’; while in ‘Roving Eye’, Michael Green casts the spotlight on prize-winning images by some of Australia’s best documentary photographers.
Our ‘Vendor Profile’ is Will from Wangaratta in regional Victoria. And we have ‘Streetsheet’ contributions from Stephen in Point Lonsdale, Victoria and vendors Gordon in Melbourne, Glenn P in Sydney and Mary in Subiaco, WA.
