Ordinary Magazine
What David Lynch showed us with Blue Velvet was how beneath the ordinary, every day life... there's some creepy shit going on. What we try and show each week with TwoThousand is how beneath the ordinary, every day life, there's some awesome shit going on.
Ordinary Magazine shows us that there's a fine line between creepy and awesome. Sometimes they're one and the same. Grown men playing with model trains - creepy, or awesome? A guy from Ryde who studied in Japan and became a ninja - awesome, or creepy? How about an artist who makes medical drawings for a living? Or a weekend bootcamp in picking up chicks? Or a look at the knives, skulls, and butter churns stored in Opera Australia's Alexandria prop warehouse?
A crew of Sydney writers publish Ordinary Magazine free, online, on a try-monthly basis (they try to publish it monthly). With a focus on interviews and undercover journalism, they eschew the usual magazine staple of celebrities, proving once and for all that ordinary people are way more interesting than rock stars. And just as frickin' weird.
