Quite simply, because we think it is needed. Right now we see very little promise in mainstream magazines to provide an informative and reflexive glimpse of what it is like to be living in the world today. We don't want articles and features on super models and celebrities - we want to read about ourselves, and people just like us. So we have started clamor with the intention of providing a resource and outlet for people to find and express themselves. As you look through the pages of clamor, you will notice that it is a magazine that doesn't behave like most magazines.
Advertising is minimal and diverse content makes up the balance.
Some of the pieces will be self-contained works while others will be works in progress inviting you to enter your own thoughts into the discussion. In clamor you will find something that interests you and connects to your life in some way. By creating a magazine that is about real people and real experiences, we are opening up the often one-sided medium and actively encouraging you, the reader, to participate in the creation of useful media. We invite you to contribute your own thoughts, experiences, opinions, and art to help us fulfill this goal and continue to do so for many more issues.
