The Crimson Feet Magazine started in Match, 2003 as an online magazine and gradually moved towards a dual existence in print and electronic form. The magazine is designed as - 

"a space for urgent, visionary, volatile, enlightening, evolutionary words & vision. It is designed as an open network for the creative; as an interactive, responsive and malleable bridge between them and the readers / audiences.
