Filter mag to close, but Culture Collide will live on
By Chris Cooke | Published on Monday 30 June 2014
American music magazine Filter is to cease operations later this summer, though its spin-off festival Culture Collide will live on, while one of the title’s owners will launch a new publication.
Filter co-founders Alan Sartirana and Alan Miller say that they just feel the time is right to park their combined media enterprise, adding that they are parting on good terms, and that the business side of Filter was doing just fine.
Miller will take the Culture Collide brand, and staff who worked on it, with him, with an editorial platform to be built around the festival. Meanwhile Sartirana will be joined by most of Filter’s editorial staff to launch a new online music and culture publication called Anthemic.
