First press release

Pay a Day
How much will you pay a composer for a single day's work?

The Borealis Festival for contemporary music in Bergen/Norway seeks individuals and institutions interested in participating financially in the debate around cultural subsidies:

Are you, or is your organisation, interested in funding a single day of work by the Brussels based artist and composer David Helbich?

You decide how much his time is worth and on which day he will undertake the work. By paying for a single day you have the opportunity to contribute to the project as a whole.

Borealis initiates this project by paying David Helbich:
200 nok for November the 23rd 2009
and
5000 nok for February the 7th 2010.
  • The final work will be performed at the Borealis festival, March 9-13 2010.
  • David will report on each day of work on his blog at pay-a-day.blogsopt.com
  • All patrons will have the opportunity to speak directly with the composer if they wish.

Will you support us in our aim to have 10 days work scheduled by December 1st 2009? Or do you prefer to fund a day in the last and critical phase of the project?
