BAIG: <Bourbon|Beer|BBQ> for Arts Infrastructure Geeks

We are not chip-tuners or projection designers. We are not moving light programmers or expert sound designers. We don't do the sexy stuff, and we like it. We are arts infrastructure geeks.

We are a group of people interested in

1) Technology, computer programming, geeky stuff
2) Arts administration
3) #1 used in service of #2

Marketing, analysis, grant-making, ticket-selling, modelling, reporting, cultural asset mapping, open source, service-oriented architecture, the cloud, constituent relationship management, the coming obsolescence of Joe the IT guy, social cultural constituent asset relationship map modelling: these are the things we love.

We also love bourbon, beer and barbecue (and bubbly water for the non-imbibing).
