  1. so excited to see this model for selecting grant winners starting to catch on. the effort it reduces on both sides of the application process... jerwoodarts.org/2021/09/07/announcing-the-11-fund/

      but, more than that: the way existing funding models reward being good at applications more than good at the art. and rewards having connections who can explain what the funders are looking for and having time to apply for a pile of funds.

        and as they say: who can tell what the perfect thing is, when it is nebulous and early stage and high risk? why bash your heads out reviewing thousands of applications trying to figure it out? most of them are good enough. just accept you don't know.
