Great BBC story about the Grateful Dead's role in the internet's evolution, including how our late beloved Board Member John Perry Barlow's cyber adventures led to founding the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), a 1993-1994 Rex grantee.

We're really happy to share this recently unearthed interview with our late and beloved Founding Board Member Bill Graham from 1991, where he talks about the Grateful Dead, and Rex, and how they make the world better. Travel back in time.
