Hey all, We had a fruitful discussion around the issue of “how to get money” as a freelance biohacker, in other words - how to get fair pay as a DIY artist, biohacker, person… Please add your notes from the session and any other comments for the future of such issue. ## Fair play discussion ###Freelancing and funding for freelance advisers… /\* how to get money for stable spaces, but also money for freelancers to work in such spaces. /\* Rate for presentations and “what we do” and workshops, remove the artistic practice of being called by institutions that have “limited budget”, so limited money…stop this narrative /\* budget should be transparent /\* what we offer is viable 100 million (Biotopia) - how to present the work as valuable (brand as consultants?) - 1. building confidence that what is coming is having value - 1. are there mechanisms for being paid like his by institutions - 1. are they willing? /\* for this, create a manifesto, where SOP, rates etc. A manifesto that speaks from the community. Set the standard higher than a minimum /\* to point out the professionalism - a collective pro identity /\* GitHub -\> DIY science
