Blinter Magazine celebrates the way that this world can leave us wonderstruck.
Named after the Scottish word for “Glimmer” or “Flicker,” Blinter Magazine tells stories that honor that magical feeling that comes with exploring the planet, whether that be physically through travel or emotionally through the arts.
Not only does our name capture the beauty of our world, but it pays homage to our northern roots.
We cover travel, art & culture, food, and climate. We also publish interviews conducted with inspiring people who are making the world a better place. With origins in the north – specifically the Pacific Northwest, Scandinavia, and the Celtic Isles – we focus on storytelling that covers this part of the world. However, we make it a point to explore every corner of our planet, so our travel tales reach further than our geographic history. Our article topics range from Nordic berry-picking to how biophilic design is changing cities to ecologically-inspired fashion shows that made us believe in luxury again.
This publication puts articles into the world that conscious readers would want to read. Blinter Magazine is for people who like to forage just as much as they like to visit art museums in the city. It’s for people who are inspired by zero-waste fashion designers, artivists, and Norwegian film. It’s for those who are curious about earth ships and the best places to camp in Puget Sound. It’s for those who go to Disneyland and head straight for Tarzan’s treehouse and those who cry over land art.
While Blinter Magazine may not fit into just one category, its mission is concise: to inspire you to see the world and to save it.
We believe that while this motivation can stem from fear, guilt, and traditional science or travel reporting, it strikes a stronger chord when it comes instead from a feeling of love; of awe. For this reason, we write with the vision of a wonderstruck reader on the other side. With our words, we weave rich tapestries of strong imagery, emotional language, and inspired angles. We make it a point not to practice the adjective-less and neutral style of other outlets. This is journalism with feeling.
