The closest thing to a working commune and a working democracy I ever expect to see in this material world we live in.
Foremost is an aggressive booking policy that presents live national and local talent two hundred nights a year, with enough variety to satisfy even the most hard-core music lovers... It makes perfectly good sense to me, for instance, to present Bill Monroe one night and Ravi Shankar the next, Fats Domino after that, then Mighty Clouds of Joy or Jerry Jeff Walker, and then a Sunday performance of Stanley Hall's Austin Ballet Theatre. Show me another club or concert hall as adventurous as that.
StoryArk grew out of a website we built for the Texas Coastal Bend Collection, a documentation of the ranching culture in South Texas (Black cowboys, Vaqueros and the Irish immigration). The site houses 1,400 hours of audio interviews, 9,000 photographs, 4 books, journals, maps, and other historical ephemera all cross-linked using the StoryArk platform.
