Flagship · Interactive design in storytelling

A manifesto you play.

The Great Libertarian Data Loss turns a long argument into an interactive page: the text chars as the story darkens, a held button turns the page, and the whole essay resolves at the end. This is what storytelling looks like when the design is part of the plot.

Built on BackGold

Your website is the front door. BackGold is the whole building.

Campaigns lose their lists between tools, staff handoffs, and election cycles. A site built on BackGold keeps every supporter, dollar, and volunteer hour in one record that carries forward to the next race. Our own Michael Wilhelm is the platform's cofounder and CEO, the one who fronts it and convenes the team that built it, so your site and your data live on infrastructure the liberty movement actually owns.
