History
The magazine was first formed in 1986 by Ramses H. Ayana as a quarterly publication covering human rights, the environment, alternative health, women's rights, New Age, Free Energy, alternative science and the paranormal. Co-founder of the magazine was Jenni Elf and both founders had previously worked on the independent Australian magazine 'Maggie's Farm'. R. Ayana now publishes blogs new illuminati and Her(m)etic Hermit. NEXUS was handed on to Duncan Roads in 1990, continuing a long tradition of keeping alternative publications alive in Australia, regardless of monetary considerations. Following the handover, the topics covered by Nexus were changed and it moved to a bi-monthly publication schedule. Duncan Roads and his partner Catherine Simons have produced the magazine since then.
