Tour Book Maps For Info/Installation use

Here are a couple of tour book images; one of "New Orleans Attractions" which may be useful and from which I can share where the theatres I've interviewed are located, and one of the flood levels so people can have an idea of where was hit. I think the "tour book" look adds to Louise's "postcard" element.

Script Rough Draft

Hello Everyone!

Now that the script rough draft has been compiled, I really can't wait to see how it all comes together in NOLA! We will continue editing, of course, but I think we have the start of something really good. We've seemed to each pick up on the gaps between the "facts" of a place, the stories that surround these facts, and the lived experiences of them. Good stuff.

If you haven't received our draft (there's a main rough draft and the Storyville connectors), please let me know.

Look out ATHE, here comes the Turgs...

NY Times Audio Slide Show

Hello RE:Actions Group! Today's NY Times (July 2) has a brief audio slide show on the reconstruction that individual New Orleanians are doing on their homes in a variety of neighborhoods. It is nice to have an update on how the city is doing—both good to see people's initiative and important to see that the city has not helped them.
