Resonance nominated for 2002 Utne Independent Press Award
[Seattle,
WA. October 22, 2002] Utne, the nation's leading magazine of alternative
ideas, announces the nomination of Resonance Magazine for an Utne Independent
Press Award in the category of Arts/Literature coverage. Since 1989 these
awards have showcased the best from the Independent Press in categories
ranging from reporting excellence to personal life, cultural and international
coverage."Resonance Magazine stands out as an important independent voice in the North American media. We are pleased to honor your accomplishments with an Utne Independent Press Award nomination," said Editor Jay Walljasper.
Resonance Magazine has championed independent, forward-thinking music, arts, literature and film since 1994. Recent issues feature David Byrne, Ira Glass, David Sedaris, Beth Orton, Vincent Gallo, Billy Bragg, Dan Clowes, Chuck Palahniuk and Robyn Hitchcock. Resonance photo essays have investigated wide-ranging topics from institutionalized surveillance to the subculture of demolition derbies.
The Utne Independent Press Awards (utne.com/uipa), previously known as Utne Reader Alternative Press Awards, recognize excellence in alternative and independent publishing. Utne's editors select nominee publications through their extensive reading process and careful examination, rather than a competition requiring entry forms and fees. In this way, Utne honors the efforts of small, sometimes unnoticed publications that provide innovative, thought-provoking perspectives often ignored or overlooked by mass media.
Utne magazine, the nation's leading digest of the alternative media, has a paid circulation of 225,000. Since 1984, Utne has published the most innovative thinking on the critical issues of our time, always informing and inspiring its readers to action.
