At LOVELAND we love getting into creative collaborations with our friends and discovering new ways to crowdsource magical things into reality. We’re happy to announce a very cool new collaboration that could use some lovin’. Please see http://bit.ly/oPMedd .
Our friends James and Miguel are hustling to raise $3,500 to put one of Miguel’s paintings up on a prominent billboard near downtown Detroit. They’re using a brand new crowdfunding service called LoudSauce that makes it easy for people to collectively purchase advertising channels (billboards, print, TV, radio, etc). Once the fundraising goal is hit, LoudSauce will work with the billboard company to automagically print and install the image where it will live for 30 days.
Our friend Chris made a great trailer for the project, dubbed “Imagine Detroit Together”, and everything is accessible from the splash page at http://imaginedetroittogether.org. Please have a look and drop some quarters, tweets, and hearts into the machine if the spirit moves you.
Once the art is up on the billboard we’ll also write up a little case study about using LoudSauce so you’ll have a better idea of how it works if you want to try it. It’s exciting to be in a world where there are new and simpler ways to get messages and beauty into channels that formerly seemed inaccessible like, oh, giant expensive billboards. But this billboard doesn’t have to be expensive to any one person, and that’s part of the magic.
We’ve been hard at work as usual. If you want to see some other recent happenings check the blog: http://makeloveland.com/blog .
We hope you like,
