RADIO PROGRAM SERIES ON ABC RADIO AUSTRALIA  ON
Fiona Martin, co-producer and presenter of the ABC Radio National Programme 
Australia series entitled  'Reimagining Utopia' (interviews from 
communities around Australia), has advised that the series is to be 
re-broadcast AND has won an award. So there's another chance to hear the 
series, if you missed it the first time:

"In even better news, Life Matters has just told us they will be re-playing 
the series from December 25th onwards, every Thursday for 6 weeks sometime 
between 9 and 10 am.  For the occasion we are overhauling the website 
<http://www.abs>http://www.<http://www.abs>abs.net.au/rn/utopias and adding 
new material.  This will include Countercycle, a history of ideas 
associated with Australia's intentional communities; a series of brief 
interviews with new communards; and a catalogue of quotations summarising 
the significant changes people have noticed on their communities in the 
last 30 years or so.  These updates will be uploaded in a couple of weeks.

If you have time please leave a message in the guestbook "Your Stories" so 
the ABC people know what you think of the site.

In even better news, the overall project - radio programs and website - won 
the University's Vice Chancellor's award for excellence in research and 
scholarship.  Just under half of the $10,000 prize money will go to help 
set up the Rainbow Archives, an attempt to collect and catalogue materials 
relating to post-Aquarian social movements in the Northern Rivers 
region.  The rest will go to further research projects, books, conference 
fees etc for the team members who pulled this together.   Your enthusiasm 
and generosity made this possible.  Thanks for trusting 'the media' one 
more time."
