Powerhouse

A personal highlight of Sydney's Powerhouse Museum was an exhibit case devoted to Rosie X and her 'zine/site GeekGrrrl. I've lost touch, but GeekGr+l used to run intelligent reviews of new hypertext fiction.

It's cool that there's space in the museum for zines. Also, they have some fine exhibits of design history and ideas, including good treatments of current designers and design firms, and even an intelligent section on the history of marketing in Australia.
