I/T, her book and CD set of selected poems was short listed for the New South Wales Premier's

"This one has been years in the making. It's an elegant CD and book set of Amanda Stewart's
solo work in sound, visual, concrete, political, and text-based poetry, covering a period of 16
years from 1981 - 1997. Those who don't know her work will be amazed to discover a major
voice in Australian composition. This CD/book is clearly in the must-have category, both from
the musical and literary points of view." (Warren Burt - Experimental Musical Instruments)
