A community-farmproject finds a supportive architect. three people notice that they are carrying the same idea \u2013 the course for refugees is growing into a free language-school. a<span class=\"s1\">nd an old guitar changes its owner<\/span>. the discussions carry on: why am i so shy to ask for money? what is the difficulty in having money and to give it freely? all the social problems of neediness and patronage are right here \u2013 in the same room. but still. something seems to work: a glimpse of free cultural life is tangible and some projects become reality because of individual perception.<\/p>\n<p><strong>our way to live-crowdfunding<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>we have experienced two problems. one is the nightlong writing of grant applications to get maybe 1.000 \u20ac for a cultural-project in which you gave half a year of your life. the other problem starts if you are becoming a trustee yourself \u2013 and after a few years of scrolling through too many applications you might realize that a neat design can influence a group decision a lot.<br \/>\nthese experiences lead to the wish to make funding-decisions more accesable and transparent. The exclusive circle of a foundation may generate qualitative aspects, but often builds a barrier to the real people asking for the funding. Even in cases where money does not reach a project, also the valuable feedback stays backdoors, because most foundations don\u00b4t justify their decision. Therefore culural activists suffer quite ofen from the complicated application bureaucracy, but also from the missing learning-transfer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>again \u2013 what are you doing?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>participants of a live-crowdfunding-process are invited to bring old or new born initiatives. the perception of all these intentions creates new relationships. as one result money can flow. the undertakings of some will be weighed, strengthened or questioned by the eyes of many. in banks and foundations the judging is mostly happening behind closed doors. the crowdfunding web-plattforms open this process to the masses, but the digital also brings in anonymity. we want to unite both qualities \u2013 the grinding of estimation in intensive group-processes and the broad overview of projects and intelligence of the crowd. therefore live-crowdfunding may bring some uncomfortable questions to the surface, but also the joyfull excitement of giving and receiving in the here and now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>what does it cost\u00a0?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">at the moment we carry the project in honorary office \u2013 just without honour and office \ud83d\ude09<br \/>\ntherefore to join a\u00a0live-crowdfunding-process does not cost any money<br \/>\nbecause we want to build this work fully on the trust of the people<br \/>\nso feel free\u00a0to donate and liberate our work!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"post-excerpt\">what is live-crowdfunding? fifty people, three days in an old factory loft. everybody is looking for something. the long dreamt-of&hellip;<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.schenkgeld.org\/en\/idee\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> \"Idea\"<\/span>&hellip;<\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":257,"parent":0,"menu_order":3,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/P5YFRa-1p","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.schenkgeld.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/87"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.schenkgeld.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.schenkgeld.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.schenkgeld.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.schenkgeld.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=87"}],"version-history":[{"count":16,"href":"https:\/\/www.schenkgeld.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/87\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":523,"href":"https:\/\/www.schenkgeld.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/87\/revisions\/523"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.schenkgeld.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/257"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.schenkgeld.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=87"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
