In an age of terrorism it is good to see the word hijacked in a positive context. Similarly, in a world of two-a-penny self-indulgent rambling zines, it is refreshing to have this publishing medium shown in a good light as well.
Hijacked is a small limited edition production. Xerox quality, black and white and as lo-fi as it is loveable. Largely featuring Australian creatives, Hijacked regularly has contributions from international artists and writers. Each issue is themed and features photos, paintings, doodles, designs, stories and other things (apart from your bum) that can be photocopied and made into A5.
Hijacked has no advertising and is published by Modm publishing in cahoots with Perth duo Keith and Lottie. Each issue is launched with an exhibition of featured works and a party. Issue #007 – “Mugshots” and Issue #008 – “Melbourne City Serpents” are being launched at Loop this Sunday the 12th Feb. See OUT for details.

A perfect little nook up the more elegantly wasted end of Chapel Street, Borsch, Vodka and Tears plies its contempo-bohemian trade in an atmosphere somewhat more humorous than its name might suggest. Maybe it’s due to the ‘uplifting’ potential of the 90+ imported, house-infused and ‘special release’ vodkas, or their chuckle-worthy shots such as the ‘Polish Bitch’. With imported beers and spirits, plus a great wine list there are more than 160 tipples to choose from, any of which can suitably accompany the hearty Eastern European fare that make up BVT’s charmingly different menu. From authentic pierogi and uszka (Polish dumplings) to stews and soups (obviously the eponymous beet-y borsch), the meals can be as ‘heavy’ or ‘light’ as you care to make them. Old-school (as in, not too cool for school) hospitality makes this low-lit, cosy, warm and inviting eatery/watering hole as authentic as any bar on a Prague or Krakow backstreet. |

ThreeThousand is a weekly snapshot of Melbourne's subculture, fired by email into the loving arms of people who realise that the best things in life are often hard to find. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of writers, stylists, designers, photographers, sub-cultural attaches and a large troupe of monkeys who enjoy working for peanuts.
Without editorial independence ThreeThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it – not because it's paid for.
Advertising Partnerships:
ThreeThousand is funded in full by one advertising partner per issue. We warmly invite advertisers who see the benefit in speaking to Melbourne through a trusted and targeted medium to contact Francesco at frunch@rightanglepublishing.com
Editorial Submissions:
The editorial team at ThreeThousand may know a lot - but they don't know everything. Feel free to send information on events, venues or anything else to chris@threethousand.com.au
Feedback:
Heap praise, sling abuse, ramble inanely – if you have anything to say to us please send it directly to talk@threethousand.com.au
