Hmm, I see. Looks like we have to have a day job right? Just curious, is there anyone have a day job in a field that has no relation with art? Like for example, I myself, I work as a network consultant. And then use my spare time to do some art stuff.

The day job is a wonderful thing when you find a good one.  I do a lot of random technical freelancing and some sound design, plus I teach workshops and university courses.  That gives me lots flexible time to work on what I want to.

Here's the last big project that was done from our own pockets for our own satisfaction.  It has nothing to do with pd, in fact we didn't even use computers anywhere in the process:

i wouldn't rely on artistic works to have something to eat for me and family.

I find it rather difficult to be paid for personal work.
i wish money would'nt interfere with creativity.
the economic model of art is so different of industry.

i work as an editor for a (quite cheap) living but sometimes i find it interesting to be part of artistic things
it makes my day more beautiful.

artistic projects needs  much more personnal  investment

imagine a kind of switch : (ARTIST ON / ARTIST OFF)

until glory and fame of course AHAHAHAHAH

hi there everyone!

well, my question would be very simple this time. Is there anyone here make a living as a new media artist? If yes, how do you get money to financially funding your project while still gaining money for personal usage or eve for providing your family? or do you have another job?

Thank you for answering :)
