DYNAMO Kickstarter is a monthly open morning boost for young cultural entrepreneurs, artists, students and curious souls in Odense! We meet for free breakfast, sharp presentations and dialogue. Dynamo provides a kick-off, a presentation, a workshop each time. Dynamo’s cafe is then open for your own work, collaboration or just another cup of coffee.
This kickstarter lecture and workshop is designed to help creatives navigate the complex terrain of political art, ethics, and the capitalist, market-driven systems we all operate within.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How can artists make a living without compromising their ethics? Should you tone down the political nature of your work to become more commercially viable? What are your ethical boundaries, and how can you actively maintain them? And, in practical terms, what kinds of political art create the greatest impact?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The session begins with a lecture by activist, artist, academic, engineer, and applied ethicist Dylan Cawthorne (PhD). Dylan\u2019s talk combines theoretical perspectives with practical tools for addressing real-world dilemmas faced by artists today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following the lecture, the event opens into a collaborative workshop. Participants will work in small groups of 1\u20133 people to map out their own political positions, ethical considerations, and the economic realities of their specific art form or industry. With facilitation from Dylan and other experienced cultural practitioners, participants will receive feedback on how to strengthen the political impact of their work, fund their practice in ethically responsible ways, and better align their values with their working lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
