Exposure Bucks - Sarah Lawrence
Beim morgendlichen Blättern in der Timeline ist mir gerade ein Artikel zu Spotify und deren (nicht)Vergütung begegnet.
Aber mehr noch als der Artikel hat mich die Illustration, mit der er bebildert war, angesprochen.
Eine kurze DuckDuckGo Suche später habe ich die mutmaßliche Urheberin gefunden: Sarah Lawrence, eine Designerin aus Atlanta/US, die das Motiv bereits 2016 geschaffen hat und auf Ihrer Website schreibt:
Every freelancer knows this struggle – "I can't pay you, but I can offer you plenty of exposure when this thing launches!" – this is a lie, meant to take advantage of struggling artists. I got so fed up with this concept that I wondered... what if you could pay in Exposure? With Exposure Bucks?
This design immediately went viral once released and sold out at Cotton Bureau. Ironically, it resonated so well with the creative community that it gets posted without permission about once a week since 2016.
sarahclawrence.comDas Motiv gibt es auch in ihrem Cottonbureau shop.
Exposure, after all. Seufz.

Seeing as all it seems to take is money to get Trump to do whatever you want (Kraken is the latest I've read about but there are many examples) should we regular folk have a whip-round and see what we can muster up to convince him not to be a fascist fuck stick?
If 100,000,000 of us each put in a dollar that should be enough to get /something/ given all it took Kraken was a million to make their legal woes go away.
For all the kiddies playing along at home, I give you Mike Monteiro telling it how it is...

Great advice here for creatives and freelancers from Mike Monteiro. There's very little to protect small creatives from bad clients in the absence of a solid contract.
