Yes, there is. But compartmentalizing your financial activities from your art
activities is not a bad thing to do. You can do both and they can even
facilitate the other. Same for other activities, art is not politics, but
artists use art to promote political activities.
Being an artist does not seperate you from the material necessities of your
life, and the pursuit of material comfort is not inconsistent with being an
artist.
But I guess there are definitely two conversations here - one how to raise
resources to enable the building of industry competetive new media peices and
one on how to utilize such resources in the prodution of art. IE - the
producer's problem and the director's problem.
