i’m knic. i’m a local artrepreneur. i organize community. i play music. i plan, promote, and host events. most of this i do for little to no pay. i am a constant amateur — i do things primarily because i love doing them, not because i expect reimbursement for my efforts.
i receive many benefits from my positionality. Any struggles i inevitably experience are not made worse by the color of my skin, my assigned gender, my able body, or my straight-passing relationships.
i do not believe in simple binary choices — republican or democrat, capitalism or socialism, man or woman. everything is a spectrum. i believe the principles of art, when applied to conscious capitalism, can have an enormous and positive effect on communities.
If you appreciate my work, you are invited to give freely.
