My friend Oliver came over tonight. He’s a musician who’s looking for ways to market himself on the Internet. We had a couple of beers and talked about some interesting ideas about art, music and the Web. Here’s a picture:
What would it be like if there were a website that specialized in funding artists? What would it be like if the funders were regular people, web browsing folk, who had a vested interest in the artist’s success? (I’d give $10.00 to a new artist I believe in, wouldnot you?) What would it be like if individual artists could do an “IPO” (or something similar), like any other startup, without the hassle of dealing with record companies, or galleries, etc.? Interesting…
