Agreed about cultural significance, I’ve avoided arts council funding for the reasons you set out (although have years experience working with people in funded groups, mental health, young people etc).
I certainly believe this is one of the most DIY spaces available in this era and I’m a big believer in that.
Whether we’re right or not only time will tell…
we are right. the question is whether us being motivated by that vision is enough on its own to bring about change or whether it inspires others to do the same, either way it's exciting and either way the outcome doesn't matter.
It’s funny, right now I’m trying to find value in what I do, I’m an odd chap and whilst some of my skills may be transferable, I’m so used to being in and around music the thought of pivoting scares me. Independence is important to me and I’m searching for something.
Not quite sure where I’m going with this but I’ll crack on regardless. I think the right path will reveal itself.
