Dialectic with Jackson Dahl

I interviewed @yancey about why the 21st is on track to become the creative century.

Yancey Strickler co-founded Metalabel and Kickstarter, and has spent his life finding new ways to create and support artistic people.

We talked about how the modern world became individualistic and creative, and how the internet is changing how we relate to both.

Then, Yancey makes a case for creating in conversation and conspiracy with others, rather than alone—all in service of being a part of something bigger than ourselves.

Highlights:

- defense department seeding the word "creativity" and it entering the dictionary in the 60s

- the emergence of the "self-employed commercial expressor," a job that basically didn't exist 15 years ago

- what it looks to be an independent creator *and* be a part of a collective

- what it could look like for more people to make a living on the internet, rather than just a few people making a killing

- Artist Corps, Yancey's newest effor
