David Byrne

I think that new media is all about changing the creative community landscape, redistributing the artistic wealth, and leveling the playing field so that anybody with a good idea, or a notable talent has a shot at fame. There is, however, a really special and beneficial effect you feel as an artist when you are surrounded by other artists. It's like the power rangers, when they all got together they could make that big robot. I think that these collectives can happen anywhere though, with an advanced online network and presence, anywhere on the planet can be an artist's headquarters.
