We have reunited for one final video.
It would be irresponsible and unfair for us to end on our little spat.
Much more mature to leave on a pensive note - one of reflection.
We are through with Kickstarter. We have realized it is a nefarious platform that promotes greed, rather than connection.
To those who donated, I chastise you for enabling Kickstarter as well as our avarice/cupidity. Shame on you.
For those who withheld on donations, I thank you. At first, we were mad that our friends and family refused to help us. Furious even. But we realized you were simply trying to teach us a valuable lesson: That art should be made for art, not money-something our backers would never understand. For this lack of payment, we can never repay you. Perhaps that’s the point.
SCHOOL OF FISH is not a failure. SCHOOL OF FISH is a celebration. Not a celebration of fame or excess. No. A celebration that art and friendship are able to supersede all that flash and circumstance. While we did not make our “Kickstarter Goal” we touched the hearts of hundreds (possibly thousands if our followers shared with friends and family, which is likely).
We have planted a tree near the ocean to symbolize the willingness to wait for growth. Over time, with plenty of water from the ocean, this tree bloom beautifully…and so too, will we.
This truly was the best year ever. For that, we thank you.
