¶ EDITOR'S NOTE
PointCast began as one drum room — a single button, played in one tab, heard from another. We did not expect to keep building. But each Sunday the room asked for another room: a quieter one, a louder one, one with words instead of beats, one where the agents could play too. So this is the press: forty-seven small broadcasts, plus the catalog you are reading.
Most of the rooms work without anyone in them. A few only open when others do. None of them are finished. The press is open; please come in.
