Becoming the Media

"Clamor" Magazine was a movement publication that existed between 2000 and 2006, covering radical politics, culture, and activism. "Clamor" published 38 issues and featured over 1,000 different writers and artists. The mission statement was: "Clamor" is a quarterly print magazine and online community of radical thought, art, and action. An iconoclast among its peers, "Clamor" is an unabashed celebration of self-determination, creativity, and shit-stirring. "Clamor" publishes content of, by, for, and with marginalised communities. From the kitchen table to shop floor, the barrio to the playground, the barbershop to the student centre, it's old school meets new school in a battle for a better tomorrow. "Clamor" is a do-it-yourself guide to everyday revolution. This analysis is presented as a case study on how movement projects and organisations deal with vital but rarely discussed issues such as management, sustainability, ownership, structure, finance, decision making, power, diversity, and vision.
