Bikwil
Description
Bikwil celebrates quiet enthusiasms, where "quiet" implies subtlety, restraint, minimum hype, while "enthusiasm" has its usual meaning of any pursuit or interest that beguiles us. A crucial corollary of the Bikwilian approach concerns our avoidance of negativity. What we emphasise here is involvement that is mainly "positive towards . . ." and "in praise of . . .".
Bikwil first saw the light of day in Sydney in May 1997 as a "newsletter". Although the idea of a magazine was that of editor Tony Rogers, in a way its genesis had actually occurred a few years earlier among a group of like-minded souls. They were talking over lunch and the phrase "small dinosaur" got coined to convey the meaning "we are small creatures who enjoy waxing passionate on topics of value that most of the modern world appears to deem 'old-fashioned' or even 'extinct'".
Tony and several other compatible types were soon recruited into this proto-society of neo-Mesozoic iconoplasts. Many conversations later, Bikwil came into being as a free publication, with the aim of sharing our enthusiasms with a wider community.
