“Crowdfunding frees us up to feel it’s OK to pursue our own passions. Too often in life, you have a great idea and you really feel good or excited about it and you never do anything with it because you think ‘I’m not the type of person who’ll follow through, no-one’s going to care, it’s too impractical, I have to do xyz.’ Having a place where you can at least try and you can say ‘I put this out in the world’ and see how people react, I think that is very powerful.”

“…what crowdfunding does is it allows more people to try – and it gives people the freedom to choose what art and what businesses they want to see become a reality without having any gatekeepers decide for them.”
