Most of us barely have enough money for a daily tram ticket, let alone to cultivate an art collection. But when an original work that lasts FOREVER can be bought for just $100, walking for a month starts to sound good.
Craft Victoria’s hush hush silent bidding and exhibition starts this Thursday, with work from local artists Ramona Barry, Kris Coad, Sophie Milne and Jessie Tucker on display and ripe for the bidding.
The exhibition culminates on December 2 with a live auction, and all funds raised will go to a series of grants for the partaking artists. Even if a bid seems out of your budget, pool your shrapnel and who knows, you could walk away with the goods. |

Design is both a broad term and a broad community, which means that sometimes it is nice to narrow it down a little. Many design publications exist in the ether, out there somewhere, with no location in mind. The Melbourne Design Guide 06/07 however, is more directional than a city tram.
Covering built design, product design, fashion design, graphic design, craft, arts, food and nightlife, festivals and events, tours, day trips as well as a range of lists, the guide is not only comprehensive but also easy to navigate. Editors Ewan McEoin and Viviane Stappmans, both with backgrounds in design and journalism, have worked with lab.3000 and Studio Round to create something that Melbourne is in need of – actual proof to outsiders that the city is Australia’s creative capital. |

Let’s face it, most magazines write about their friends anyway, so treat this not so much as a review but as a congratulations to The Temper Trap for releasing a brilliant new EP. Take it with a pinch of salt if you need to, but either way, just take it.
Their sound is both electric and hypnotising, with vocals that pull heart strings and bass lines that break guitar strings. They know how to sweat and are without a doubt one of the hardest working and most talented bands in Australia, having toured constantly and supporting a wide range of acts from Spank Rock to Damo Suzuki. Although this EP sounds different to those who know their live sound well, it is a well-considered side-step that highlights their cohesion and their song structures while still harnessing the raw energy of their performance.
The Temper Trap will launch their EP at the ThreeThousand Xmas party on Friday December 1 at Miss Libertine, 34 Franklin St, Melbourne. We are honoured to have them, and we will be honoured for our subscribers to attend. |

Six mangos, $5. Bag of oranges, $3.50. 20 punnets of strawberries, $20.
We’re not sure what you’d do with 20 punnets of strawberries, but who cares, you can still buy them for bargain price every week at the Gleadell Street Market.
An early Saturday morning might sound trying after a long Friday night, but just a short spell at Gleadell Street makes for a week’s worth of fresh fruit, vegetables, nuts, bread, herbs, seafood and flowers – and sure beats a week’s worth of 2 Minute Noodles, for around the same price.
From the seafood van banter to the old men arguing over an artichoke, Gleadell St has all the market trimmings just off Bridge Road. At $2 a bag, how can we not like them apples?

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
