    It&#39;s the 1940s, and impressionist painter Sidney Nolan is on the run. He had deserted from the army after being conscripted to fight in Papua New Guinea. While in hiding, he paints his best-known works: A semi-autobiographical series on 19th century outlaw Ned Kelly. #art #impressionism #paintings

    Most of the new Southwest Sydney metro is an old heavy rail line, upgraded to have automated trains running every ~4 mins at peak and ~7 mins offpeak. As a result, at stations like Marrickville, there&#39;s century-old railway buildings with platform screen doors. @fuckcars@lemmy.world@pixelfed.social #rail #train

    There&#39;s a myth down in Melbourne that people in Western Sydney don&#39;t go to the footy. That&#39;s not true. The GWS members sit on the same side of the ground as the TV cameras. As you can see, both tiers are open and most of the seats on the members&#39; side are full. #GWS #GWSGiants #AFL

    The Macquarie St/Gasworks Bridge, Parramatta, NSW. This iron lattice bridge on sandstone pillars was built in 1885, and still carries thousands of cars a day. It now also has a shiny new bike path underneath it. #bridge #engineering #building #structure #Parramatta #NSW #Australia

    A couple of days ago, I posted photos of the PHIVE building, which (among other things) houses Parramatta Library. Here&#39;s the library on the inside... #Library #Parramatta #NSW #Australia #book #books #buildings #architecture

    The PHIVE building in Parramatta Square, with its iconic sloped red roof. It houses the city library, council services, convention and exhibition spaces, and is currently also the temporary home of the Riverside Theatre. #Parramatta #city #building #buildings #architecture #NSW #Australia

    In the urbanist discourse, there&#39;s rightly a lot of discussion about barrier-protected bike lanes. But I think there should be more advocacy for dedicated bus lanes as well. #bus #Urbanism #city #cities #UrbanPlanning #Streets #auspol

    The most popular games machine that Mattel distributed in Australia: The Nintendo NES. (Folks outside Australia: Note it says Mattel version on the cartridge cover.) #retrogaming #retrogames #retrocomputing #videogames #Nintendo #NES #Mattel

    It&#39;s not an Apple 2, it&#39;s a Wombat! Apple&#39;s lawsuit against the company that sold this machine ended up going all the way to the High Court. And Apple lost! Turns out software was not covered by Australian copyright law at the time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_Edge_v_Apple On display at https://acms.org.au/ #apple #computerhistory #law #legal #auspol
