Business Amanda Palmer's TED Talk: "The Art Of Asking"

Posted by on Wed, Mar 13, 2013 at 1:27 PM

"Don't make people pay for music, says Amanda Palmer:
Let them. In a passionate talk that begins in her days as a street performer (drop a dollar in the hat for the Eight-Foot Bride!), she examines the new relationship between artist and fan."

Are you swayed? Does this change your mind, if you ever cared, about Palmer's Kickstarter-funded tour?

Oh barf. Her faux awkwardness and "aw shucks" ernest BS is just awful. Ms. Palmer is a female-female impersonator - her "look" is frightening. I am touched that she was touched by a Honduran family...bleech.

She is awful. HORRIBLE. And this talk is basically, "look how awesome I am, it's okay for me to take your money because I am awesome."

HORRIBLE.
