Kickstart The Evolution

Evolver is all about creating a new paradigm based on group collaboration so I thought funding the Evolution should take a similar approach.  Kickstarter offers that opportunity and so I took the initiative, volunteered my time and organized the filming of a video and came up with gifts we could give people in return for their donations.  The money will go towards making upgrades to the Evolver.net user interface--giving users better tools to create and share projects with one another.  The goal is to raise at least $5,000 by 10AM EDT on 10/10/10.

You can see it all here:

In return for donations we're offering one-of-a-kind art, books signed by RS Editorial, and a special Reality Sandwich t-shirt designed by RS Creative Director Michael Robinson.  This is your chance to get some great stuff and support the movement at the same time!

Special thanks to Lee McEwen and Nicholas Herms for volunteering their time to shoot and edit the video. This (unofficial) animated logo was made by Ashley Carter.

Here’s my feeling about it. If we support what Evolver is doing, and want it to grow - we need to nurture it.

It was fun to invite artists come to my place. I was delighted to see them sit down, get to work and create some amazing original art – likewise asking people to donate their time to be filmed on camera gave us all a chance to rally and support the cause. If we raise this money, the site can be improved and really accelerate the work that Evolver is doing.

This was an amazing group effort. Let’s see what the community can do! Please post the video and/or link to the kickstarter on your facebook page! Let's do this!Tweet
