Personally I feel like there are a lot of important and opposing conversations about the interaction between authentic creativity and money.

One of the biggest reasons I’m a proponent of Universal Basic Income is that I want creative people to be able to create without having to fall prey to things like cutting out their medium in order to make sure they can eat and have a place to live.

However: we are currently within a capitalist society, and because of that we have to think of how we can financially enable the art and culture that we want to see more of.

This is a deeply interwoven and complex topic, but at the end of the day I just want to see interesting stuff and know that the people creating it are better because of it.
