Hello,
I'm still in marking mode.... but I did find time to see the following at the Immigration Museum...well worth it. The show has been put together by George Michel (not george michael), much of his work has centred on the architecture of Vijayanagara Empire (i..e. he has quite a few publications and is also a regular visitor to Melbourne (and also a nice guy). What I enjoyed most was the reworking of a 19th century photograph by his photographer friend. Also the digital display was awesome:
