I urge you to read the report I wrote for the Rockefeller Foundation titled, "New Media Arts | New Funding Models" -- abstract below. The report is available for free download at my web site http://digital-bauhaus.com/html/mediaArtReport/reportabstract.html The report explores the very issue of self-sustainability for new media artists and non-profit organizations. As well, it offers first hand advice and experiences from the trenches of the funding community. Yes the report is US centric. But I've received more downloads from northern and eastern Europe than the US. cheers, Pamela Report Abstract New Media Art/ New Funding Models report investigates the current state of funding for new media artists.
