Carl Lindgren :) MANAGING EDITOR [email protected]

Welcome to map magazines 146th issue, focussing on some of the wonderful dreamers who are helping to shape the culture and conversation around the food we consume. The sustainability of Australias food supply is top of mind at the moment, so much so that the Australian Government is developing Australias first ever National Food Plan (NFP). The aim of the NFP is to foster a sustainable, globally competitive, resilient food supply that supports access to nutritious and affordable food. It seems that the consensus from the Australian Food Sovereignty Alliance (AFSA) is that the current draft plan is considered to be woeful. Together with some

of Australias leading thinkers on the topic, the AFSA is drafting a document called the Peoples Food Plan (PFP) to present as an alternative to the governments approach. The PFP is a collaboration of organisations and individuals working together towards a food system, in which people have the opportunity to choose, create and manage their food supply from paddock to plate. One that they consider is the kind of national framework and agenda Australia really needs. Their approach is spot on, and if you hear about an AFSA planning session around your local area, I strongly recommend you get involved. I hope you enjoy the words of our dreamers.

ark WORLD FOOD DAYSadly, the level of poverty that exists in third-world nations across the globe seems only to be getting worse. In 1981, to raise awareness and hopefully one day come to an understanding about how to end hunger in developing countries, the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) created World Food Day. Falling on October 16 annually, World Food Day focuses on a different theme each year. This year, the day will explore the importance of agricultural cooperatives in helping to feed the world. @ www.fao.org

The meeting of two unlikely spirits can be the catalyst for the greatest adventures. The Intouchables is an uplifting French film inspired by Abdel Sellous memoir, You Changed My Life. After his wife is diagnosed with a terminal illness and a paragliding accident leaves him a quadriplegic, Count Philippe Pozzi di Borgo finds himself in need of a caretaker. As he begins to form an unwavering camaraderie with his new caretaker an unsentimental Algerian immigrant named Senegalese Philippe rediscovers his thirst for life, while Senegalese begins to adopt a new perspective. For your chance to attend map magazines special screening at Dendy Portside on October 16 at 6:30 pm, visit www.mapmagazine.com.au and follow the links. 112 lucky entrants will receive a double pass.

JULIA CHILDIt was as much her winsome disposition as her epicurean dexterity that endeared Julia Child to the world. Unfailingly passionate about French cuisine, she once described her first meal in France as being an opening up of the soul and spirit. Known for enlightening Americans about the wonders of French fare with her recipe books, and TV show The French Chef, Julia dreamed of spreading the joy of cooking to everyone she encountered.

A MEAL ALWAYS TASTES BETTER ...

EDITORS MEMO On a recent trip to Italy, I had the pleasure of spending a few days with an Italian friend and her family in the region of Liguria. The meals I ate during those few days were among some of the best Ive eaten in a long time, but not because they were intricate, overly complicated culinary masterpieces. In truth, they were wonderfully simple a few fresh ingredients combined to make a delectable feast. But what made them taste even better was the fact that every meal was enjoyed together with good company and long conversations, surrounded by the beauty of nature. Its no surprise that the Slow Food movement began in Italy, and its something that several of the dreamers in our October Eat issue have cited as an inspiration. So this month we praise the beauty of simplicity in food and in life enjoy!

An exciting thing about travelling is the enticing promise of being able to tuck into a feast of the local cuisine. Indulging her love for food, design and photography, designer Kelly Pratt created the Stately Sandwich Project. Her goal was to create a series of prints that reflected the main sandwich of each of the USAs 50 states. From New Yorks Reuben to Connecticuts Chicken Parmigiana, each sandwich is laid out as its separate ingredients, with the recipe featured on Kellys website. So far, 15 Stately Sandwiches have been immortalised, with Kelly hard at work at the remaining 35. @ www.statelysandwiches.com

NATURAL // DESIGN

The creative hand of Mother Nature has sculpted some of the worlds most captivating landmarks, but its not often that her principles are applied to homewares. In a creative critique of contemporary industrialisation, Barcelona designer Victor Castanera turned to the hand of nature to create the Areniscos range of crockery. Using no machines, Victor shapes sand on the beach by pouring water to create a hole, then adds an eco-friendly resin that catalyses with the water to create a unique hardened shape in the form of different homewares. @ www.victorcastanera.com

PATRIOTIC // SANDWICH

Those who used to sit in the kitchen as a child and watch their mothers or grandmothers cook (selflessly volunteering to lick the spoon), would likely recall the conical Tala Cooks Measure. British design outfit Broadbase has recently revamped the Tala kitchenware range (of more than 350 products) to acquaint younger generations with the iconic brand. Keeping the nostalgic design of the original packaging but adding a contemporary mix of fonts, Broadbases Tala Retro range also features necessary cooking tools such as the sifter and a classic icing syringe set. @ www.broad-base.co.uk

CULINARY // CLASSIC

When wandering the streets of a foreign metropolis and finding yourself lost, it can be a chagrining experience having to pull out a map and affirm your tourist status. While a discreet glance at Google or Apple Maps is now possible, a more sartorial solution could be the GPS Shoes by Dominic Wilcox, which have a navigational tool built into their design. But before Marty McFlys futuristic kicks spring to mind, rest assured that these dapper oxfords feature delicate broguing that leads you to your pre-programmed destination with a gentle (and very subtle) flash of LED lights. @ www.dominicwilcox.com

Those who have had to fight for their freedom often experience a newfound sense of creativity once they have achieved their independence. While it may not regularly rate upon the worlds design radar, the Eastern European nation of Ukraine (which regained its independence in 1991) is one such milieu of burgeoning creativity. An archetype of this emerging ingenuity is Tavernetta restaurant, nestled in the Ukrainian city of Odessa on the northwestern coast of the Black Sea. Designed by local architectural collective Studio Belenko, Tavernetta emphasises the philosophy that a simple life is the best life. Warmth emanates from the raw Siberian pine finishes and the traditional stucco walls, with the contrasting textures uniting to create

a rustic ambience that is at once homely and shrewdly crafted. Collections of retro kitchen items act as centrepieces of the decor a rainbow of KitchenAids perches along the ledge of one wall, their mixing arms raised to attention in readiness, while motley bouquets of rolling pins cluster along another. Elsewhere in the space, old-style colanders, saucepans and copper utensils hang in tribute to the intricacies of cooking. Bathing the space in a charming glow, muted sunlight filters in through the ample windows, providing glimpses to the natural setting outside where verdant trees sway lazily in the breeze. And as evening sets in, retro lamps cast luminous intimacy over diners as they tuck into the lovingly prepared fare, making them feel as though the homely space has been created especially for them.

ALISON SHEEHAN artisan producer/stella may fine foods

JAIME REYES food stylist/jaime reyes food stylist Trust your

instincts. ALISON SHEEHAN

All you need is a love of food. JAIME REYES

What is your profession? I create food for use in TV, cinema, advertising, publishing, marketing, packaging, cookbooks and recipe development. What training or qualifications do you need to fill this role? I have previously worked as a chef, and I have a fine arts degree and an interest in art, but the best qualification is a love of food. What are the key skills and responsibilities of the role? A knowledge of food, a thirst to know more and, above all, people skills. You have to listen to clients and interpret what they ask for until you get it right. How did you get involved in your profession? I was asked by a friend to style a barbecue scene for a brochure. I loved the experience and went to university to study fine arts. I also did dedicated food-styling courses in New York City. Could you break into the industry in other ways? All you need is a love of food. Its a pretty specialised skill set and there are no courses in Australia. What do you hope to achieve within your industry? I couldnt think of anything better than travelling the world with my family, tasting food and experiencing the cultures of the places that make up this planet. Food is the bond between us all. Are you in the industry for the long term? For the term of my natural life. What advice would you give someone looking to emulate your success? Start on the other side of the world and Ill meet you halfway. Did you always think you would be in this role? No, but Im much happier in my skin now as a husband, father and food obsessive. What was your first paid job? Picking up golf balls at a driving range wearing a motorbike helmet and a mattress wrapped around me with bungee cords I lasted two days. What would you love to do if you werent in this role? Id be a professional surfer. What inspires you? People who follow their dreams not for financial gain, but because they have a fire that burns so deeply within. Who is your rolemodel? People like Carlo Petrini (founder of Slow Food), Stephanie Alexander and Jamie Oliver, who teach us that food really is something special that should be respected. What are your words of wisdom? Dont read labels talk to farmers.

What is your profession? I produce fine pates, terrines and rillettes, respecting time-honoured traditions. What training or qualifications do you need to fill this role? Whilst my business and marketing qualifications and Certificate III Commercial Cookery (Catering) are a good platform, Ive found that a small business owner needs plenty of steadfastness and belief.

Its a rare occasion (and, frankly, slightly concerning) when someone needs to be coerced or persuaded into eating ice-cream. Regardless, in such situations, the Kkis ice-cream canape glasses by Jakobsen Design would be a handy method of enticement. Resembling delicate glass tulips, the dessert vessels are an impressive means of serving sweets in colourful sugar-infused bouquets. To commence consumption, grasp the long stem and begin licking as if holding a cone, before artfully seizing the last remaining drops with a teaspoon (or, for the less well-mannered, your tongue). @ www.jakobsendesign.com

In case you need the occasional reminder of how wonderful life really is, the 100 lb Coal Bag from Best Made Co. will happily oblige. Sturdy is somewhat of an understatement when waxing about the wonders of this tote, which is based on the design of the bags used to haul 100 lb of coal or dirt during the 1920s and is crafted from #6 Duck Canvas. Suggested uses of the handy tote include lugging about your farmers market bounty, discreetly yet stylish storing your dirty clothes in your bedroom or toting a small-to-medium-sized canine. @ www.bestmadeco.com

I grew up in Brisbane I went to Churchie and I graduated from the University of Queensland in 2000. I then embarked on a career in finance that, to be honest, I always detested but just happened to be good at.Id always had a love for brewing For my 18th birthday, my mates gave me one of those rubbish Coopers homebrew kits and we made some horrendous beers during college.My elder brother passed away in 2001 and I think that was the catalyst for me to pack it in and take off to the UK. I ended up in Dublin working for the infamous AIG American International Group before I was sent to London to work on its trading desk in early 2004. While living in London my friends and I would always do daytrips to little countryside villages to visit all the English pubs, where there would be all these obscure beers with ridiculous names. I fell in love with that whole culture the Slow Food movement and everything that came with it. I met my wife Abigail in London and I soon learned the fantastic news that her mother, Penny Coles, was a commercial brewer in the UK. As you can imagine, it was every guys dream. After that, I was more or less always in Pennys brewery. Shes obsessed with real ale and the culture and basic produce that comes with it

all those things that tie into the concept of the Slow Food movement and the philosophy of taking things from farm to plate. It was fantastic. Shed recycle her spent grain from the brewery to the local piggery and then Id go for dinner at her house and shed serve pork that had been fed on her spent grain.Penny is one of my greatest inspirations She was one of the first female brewers in the UK and shes been at it for more than 30 years. Now that Im in the industry, I know that its quite male dominated, and that it can be difficult to be the new guy on the scene. I cant imagine what it must have been like for her when she started in a very traditional place like Cheshire in England. I find it so incredible that she stuck with it and became so successful. I began to take brewing more seriously after seeing it on that commercial scale that was still tangible and hands on. Youd physically put the malt into the mash tun from a grain sack off your shoulder and then stir it through with a big fork. The process seems incredibly old-fashioned, but its very exciting in the same right.It was actually in America that the craft-beer movement really got me. We moved to the USA after Abigail was transferred to Ohio for work and, not long after, I was asked to go to work in New York City. I was working

on this crazy trading desk and the world was imploding around it during the GFC it was chaos. All the guys I worked with ... had these refillable draught-beer growlers under their desks. It made me wonder why, in a country like Australia that loves beer, Id never seen them here. We used to go down to this place in Brooklyn called Sixpoint Brewery, where theyd just have a rollerdoor up on this dodgy street. There would be Wall Street guys in suits next to taxi drivers and guys from the meatworks around the corner. It was something that didnt exist in Australia that myriad of people and faces and the culture around the beer. The focus was on knowing which beers were local and I loved that. I guess it was then that things just began to stir in me. I knew I was going to walk away from my job and so when I was offered a voluntary redundancy I jumped at it with both hands. Abigail and I then went and drove around Europe for four months before coming back to Australia.Marc and I have been great friends since we were about 12, but it feels like forever. He had actually been living in the UK as well, but he came back to Australia to help run the family architecture business after, sadly, both his parents died suddenly within months of each other. By the time I got back to Australia, he was just biding time and I

Make time for people when they need it ...

INTERVIEW BY MIKKI BRAMMERPHOTOGRAPHY BY CARL LINDGREN

When local lad Adrian Slaughter (pictured right) discovered that his future

mother in law was one of the UKs first female brewers, his life changed

forever. Abandoning a finance career that had taken him to London

and New York, Adrian returned to Brisbane determined to bring the

craft-beer culture he had seen in his time abroad to his hometown.

When he and childhood friend Marc Chrismas open the doors to Green

Beacon Brewing Company in Teneriffe (next to Campos) later this year,

the gents hope to infuse Brisbane with an appreciation for the art of local

craft beer. Alongside their selection of diligently crafted ales, the boys

will also be serving up share plates of fresh local seafood, signalling the

beginning of many a Sunday session to be enjoyed by locals.

was looking for something to do in Brisbane, only halfheartedly searching for jobs in finance. And thats how we got started.Its easy when you leave Brisbane to knock it. Or, if youre from Sydney or Melbourne, theres often that cultural cringe. But I completely reject that coming back for me was an eye-opener because Brisbane had completely changed. I love the direction its taking but I think we need even more. Its very hard to tell people that youre leaving a finance career to go into craft brewing. The hardest people to tell were the people closest to me, like my dad. These days hes our biggest supporter, but initially it was tough to fill people with the same enthusiasm that I had for what I was doing. What were doing is bold and it wouldnt have worked in Brisbane ten years ago. But it seems to me now that the place is ripe. People want this and theres an understanding within Brisbanes food culture. So we decided that we were going to just go for it and brew the best local beers that we could.

Now when we tell people what were doing theres hardly anyone who isnt inspired by it. Its completely infectious and thats what keeps you going when things get challenging.We chose Teneriffe because the old warehouses there were the only style of architecture that would fit with what we were trying to do. The building we found on Helen Street was perfect. Its an awesome late-1920s building and weve stripped it all back to the original brickwork.Life has taught me that things can all end pretty quickly both through personal experience and through Marcs history. And if I ended up being 65 and still sitting at a desk, it would not have been time well spent. I dont want to just be making up the numbers I want to be at the forefront of something. And I cant think of many better things to do than being a commercial brewer!My advice for the world is to love your wife and love your friends. Make time for people when they need it because you never know when youre going to need them to make time for you.

An unusual combination of two cultures can result in a fascinating creative synthesis. Fusing influences from her Italo-Haitian background, Rome-based designer Stella Jean designs refined, precious garments imbued with her sense of multiculturalism. Juxtaposing the ancient traditions of Creole culture with a shrewd Italian sense of design, the resulting collections are unexpected and striking, combining bright splashes of colour with intricate detailing. Stella Jeans spring/summer 2013 collection recently launched at Milan Fashion Week. @ www.stellajean.it

FASHION // PACK

There comes a time when we must graduate from the everyday backpack to something somewhat more refined. But while satchels and totes might look more glamorous, they usually dont seem to manage the same feats as a backpack. Sporting a design that wont make you look like youre reconnecting with your 16-year-old self, the Sacagawea Bag from Materials + Process fulfils the necessary functions of a backpack whilst still being a worthy part of a fashion ensemble. Made from vegetable-dyed leather, the Sacagawea Bag is intended to visually age over time. @ www.materialsandprocess.com

CULTURAL // FUSION

In the culinary realm, some people prefer to cook with strict adherence to a recipe, while others prefer the freewheeling method of trial and error, interpreting the recipe as they see fit. For those who err on the side of precision (not only in cooking but all aspects of life), the Measuring Square Scarf by Sebastian Bergne will set minds at ease when an exact measurement is required.

An unspoken rule of a good clutch is that it is large enough to fit a phone, lipstick, money and your house keys unless of course you have an obliging date who will graciously keep said items in his pockets. The other important rules are that it be small enough to clutch with ease and that it be an eye-catching addition to an outfit. The Ana Locking clutch, by Spanish designer Ana Gonzales, fulfils all the aforementioned requirements whilst also resembling a neatly wrapped gift just waiting to be opened with squeals of delight. @ www.analocking.com

GARDENIA // Classic Annick Goutal scent Gardenia Passion was inspired by a trip the French perfumer once made to Kyoto during the rainy season. As the aroma of fresh raindrops lingered upon gardenia flowers, a heady scent filled the air, inspiring Annick to recreate the scent as a divine perfume that is both rich and subtle.

STRONG // Flax seed is known as a healthy addition to smoothies, but perhaps one of its lesser-known uses is as a holding agent for wayward strands of hair. One of the long-standing staples of the Aveda haircare range, Control Paste features organic flax seed in its secret recipe, helping coiffures to stay perfectly styled whatever the weather outside may yield.

SECRET // Its common to see someone with a near-perfect complexion and wonder whether they were simply blessed with enviably good genes or if they have a secret grooming weapon. For the latter, theres a good chance they have a bottle of HealGel in their bathroom cabinet. A soothing rescue gel packed with active ingredients, HealGel is designed to improve your skin regardless of its type.

P.J. Hogans latest film, Mental, is an unpredictable ride, swinging from funny to dark, from sad to profound. Asked how much of the film is autobiographical, P.J. admits: Pretty much all of it. Actually, a better question is how much of it didnt happen. Its based on something that happened when I was young my mother had a nervous breakdown and was institutionalised. One day we got home from school and she was gone. My dad was running for re-election in local government at the time and said: No-one votes for a bloke whose wife is crazy. Youve got to keep this quiet. Shes on holiday. So that was the official story.

But then he was stuck with the five of us kids and we were to be fair to my dad a bunch of ratbags. We just went to town and ordered pizzas every night and didnt clean up after ourselves. It was mayhem. So my dad stopped for a hitchhiker on his way to work, and he trusted her to be our nanny because she had a dog

P.J.s new comedy follows a similar sequence of events. In Mental, the five siblings are rambunctious girls who are certain they all suffer from some kind of undiagnosed mental illness they worry that, if theyre not crazy, then theyre just unpopular. Toni Collette plays the nanny, Shaz, who transforms the five girls lives by encouraging them to shun conformity and embrace individuality.

P.J. explains that the real Shaz whose character is charismatic, hot-tempered, inspiring and unpredictable in the movie remains the most inspiring, outrageous and crazy person he has ever met.

A lot of the things that Shaz the character says in the movie came from the real Shaz. We were something of outcasts in our neighbourhood and at school, and she was the first person who said: You may be a bunch of nonconformists, but thats great. Who wants to be a sheep? She was the first person Id ever heard say something like that that you should embrace what is eccentric and different about you.

P.J. knows he makes his best films when drawing from his life experiences. Its the same approach he took when writing Muriels Wedding, after struggling for ten years to make films that stuck.

When I sat down to do the screenplay for Muriels Wedding, it was the most honest thing Id ever written because Id decided that my previous scripts werent responding for a reason. So I thought, okay, Im going to write something thats personal that really comes from the heart, he explains.

So I wrote what I knew about, and that was failure. I wrote a character who was a total failure Muriel but who dreamed of fame and celebrity and that was my lesson I took as a filmmaker. Id found my voice on that film, which had eluded me before.

Muriels Wedding debuted in 1994 at Cannes Film Festival and was a success in cinemas across the globe. It scooped many awards, including four Australian Film Institute awards (most notably, Best Film), and was nominated for Best Original Screenplay in both the BAFTA Awards and the Writers Guild of America Awards.

P.J. didnt expect Muriels Wedding to be so well received. Its success left me reeling, to be honest. I couldnt quite believe it. I thought I was the victim of a very cruel cosmic joke, he explains.

Its astounding that P.J. failed to muster support for the film. We made Muriels on a shoestring budget, he recalls. Nobody wanted to make it. Wed scraped the finance together and it took five years to get it made. So I went into it thinking I was just lucky to be making it at all.

Asked how he remained motivated despite the lack of support, P.J. shares: Throughout my life Id always been told I was no good. My dad was very good at that. So if I get a kick or a shove I can get back up. Thats one of the pluses of not being praised you dont look to other people to validate you. Because if youre looking for that, well, its not enough fuel to sustain a career.

After his Muriels Wedding triumph, P.J. was approached to direct My Best Friends Wedding in 1997. He accepted the role after his wife and business partner Jocelyn

Embrace what is eccentric and different about you ...

INTERVIEW BY FRANCES FRANGENHEIM

While an unhappy childhood isnt an ideal foundation for

building a successful life, Brisbane-born, Sydney-based

filmmaker P.J. Hogan hasnt let a dismal upbringing curtail

his career. During 30 years of filmmaking, P.J. has learnt

that his best stories are his own. Like his first international

smash-hit Muriels Wedding, P.J.s newly released film,

Mental, is largely autobiographical. P.J. wrote the film

primarily for entertainments sake, but says its life message,

to just be who you are, comes from Toni Collettes loud-and-

proud character, Shaz.

Moorhouse convinced him it had merit. Jocelyn was right. The film become one of the highest-grossing romantic comedies of all time and was nominated for three Golden Globe awards, including Best Motion Picture Musical or Comedy.

P.J.s transition into filmmaking was a natural one because he loved films as a young boy. Movies provided an escape from his unhappy home and school life. He didnt realise film school existed until he stumbled across a handbook for the Australian Film Television and Radio School (AFTRS) in his final year of school.

And that for me was like finding the Dead Sea Scrolls, P.J. recalls. I had no idea that such a place existed. I thought it was too good to be true. P.J. applied to the AFTRS and was asked to submit a screenplay. He didnt know what one looked like, but knew he could write. He tracked down a screenplay of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid at his local secondhand store and pored over the pages.

He submitted a short comedy script to AFTRS and was accepted in 1981 at age 17. He recalls that he was young and naive about the world of film, unlike his classmates

Jane Campion, Alex Proyas and wife Jocelyn, who went there knowing what they wanted.

Upon graduating, P.J. struggled to find his place in the industry. The film school was just an extraordinary time for me, but after that I graduated into immediate unemployment and had to scrounge for a living and basically live that life for ten years before I came to Muriels Wedding.

Asked his greatest achievement, P.J. doesnt name his films, but rather his children. I have four children and two of my kids are special needs they have autism. And I think what Im most proud of is that a series of doctors told us our daughter would never speak, but Joc and I refused to believe it. And she speaks. She doesnt have the greatest vocabulary. But she speaks.

P.J. says making films is his passion. If you talk to any film director, they will say to you that its the best job in the world, and theyre right. I love being on a set. I love to work with actors But the main thing is Im a storyteller. I have always told stories to others and now I just get to do it on a grander scale. Thats what I do, I tell stories.
