about
gavagai is an online community for creative people to connect with each other and their audience, and for their audience to connect with them.
community
gavagai is first and foremost a community. you can connect with other users on the site and join scenes with others you share common interests with.
works
everyone in the gavagai community is encouraged to post their works! gavagai supports audio works, text works, and image galleries. audio works can be in any style or genre. all users are given about 5 gigabytes of storage space for audio works. text works can be anything from poetry to reviews to short stories to blog posts. image galleries are just that - places to post photographs or other original artwork in image form.
collections
collections are places to group works that have a common theme. collections are like albums, playlists, or anthologies. you can add any number of audio or text works or image galleries to a collection.
scenes
scenes are groups or movements that share a common philosophy. scenes can be music genre-based like "pop" or "rap," or they can be regional like "southern rock" or "washington, dc hardcore." they can also be based on literary trends like "science fiction" or "verse." it's really up to the scene's creator.
