Taken a long while to create boundaries around this, still working on it, and still encountering it regularly. Especially when pitching ideas. That's the craziest part - I share money-making IP then you ask me to discount it because I'm excited about it. Enthusiasm has a cheapening effect.

I'd love to talk. There's a real overlap in both priorities and practice. I almost introduced myself in Glasgow a while back but you were with family. I'd love to speak to you (h/t: @racheljwillie.bsky.social) about what you're doing and what I'm trying for.

I know he will be inundated with weirdos trying to contact him but, after listening to Michael Sheen on βFront Rowβ last night, it feels a shame he and @rob-myles.bsky.social arenβt in touch. It sounds like they are trying to address similar issues from parallel perspectives.

Art should be funded like science. To properly fund art, you fund failure. Funding failure will give you occasional excellence. Creating any art with the aim of it being popular enough to make money, will give you consistent mediocrity. Arists need funding to play and fail because that's the process

Let me tell you about the weird business that delivers art into our lives, and the impact it has on the long-term careers of artists. This is a thread prompted by yet another article on authors' incomes, and the inevitable reactions from the 'people-would-pay-if-it-was-worth-it-to-them' brigade. 1/
