SODA Magazine

20/03/2013

Dear internet,

It is with great sadness that I announce after 6 issues, 227 pages of content, 13000 copies, 1000’s of beers, and even a few tears, SODA Magazine has shut down production as of our SUMMER edition.

I would like to sincerely thank everyone who ever read, wrote for, photographed for, illustrated for, sponsored, advertised with, modelled for, styled for, saw us in a shop window, wondered what all the SODA stickers were around town, loved us, hated us, picked a copy up off a coffee table and flicked through, used SODA to start a fire, used SODA as a roach (guilty), used SODA boxes to sneak booze into falls (guilty), mentioned us in the griffith review HA, followed us on facebook, sent us n**e photos (I wish), bought our merch and prayed for us.

I hope it was as good for you as it was for me. Stay in school, don’t do drugs (too often) and keep an eye out for updates because creativity never dies.

Sincerely,
Daniel Butcher
SODA Magazine Editor-In-Chief / Big boss man.

Reader Timothy Williamson submitted this for you guys to check out, further discussion on the recent Griffith Review edition focusing on the future of Tasmania. Thanks Tim.

The Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) has helped put Tasmania back on the map. But where it Tasmania headed?

“Copa Room showgirl Lee Merlin poses in a cotton mushroom cloud swimsuit as she is crowned Miss Atomic Bomb 1957. Above-ground nuclear testing was a major public attraction during the late 1950s, and hotels capitalized on the craze by hosting nuclear bomb watch parties, which usually included the dubbing of a chorus girl as Miss Atomic Bomb. Merlin was the last and most famous of the Miss Atomic Bomb girls”

Community support needed!

The future of digital community radio is at risk. To survive, our community stations need the Fed Government to commit to funding their digital future.

Float your boat!

Jamin, Tom O'Hern & Rob O'Connor were commissioned to paint the new MONA ferry, MONA ROMA 1. The ferry was built at Incat, by the Roche Brothers, with the exterior camo design by Damian Scott and the interior design by Georgina Freeman. We spent about 6 nights painting and drawing collaboratively on walls, glass and doors.

Australia day RUINED:

"Drewe located over 20,000 submissions which, based on the 1.3 million votes tallied in last year’s Hottest 100, means The Warmest 100 represents a 2% sample size. According to University of Queensland Chair of Applied Statistics, Professor You-Gan Wang, that sample size could accurately predict approximately 90% of the final results."

Need space to work, hang, pretend you have an office, getaway from your desk, set up a meeting or mention to all your friends that "I'll be in Parliament today"?...

Open plan co-working on the Hobart waterfront. Grab a desk, book one of the meeting rooms, or chill out in the communal spaces.
