SXSW: Fray Cafe with Eric Rice (Spin Martin)

As Eric Rice tells it, Fray started out back in 1996 as a site where readers would tell true stories. Once a month, the site's creator, Derek Powazek, would design beautiful pages to go with the story. Since then, readers have held Fray Days in various parts of the world to join together and share their stories.

In 2001, Fray held their first Fray Cafe at SXSW. Attendees would have five minutes to share any kind of story, be it lighthearted or dealing with more serious subject matter. Eric Rice has been hosting the event at the Red Eye Fly since 2005 and he has many stories to tell. I captured his intro to share with all of you because it really gives insight into this special occasion.
