Will Misnomer Make a Difference?
From one of my favorite blogs about a really, really neat dance company: Misnomer. Their site pushes the edge of what online presence can really do for a dance company, with things like a Remix section for video artists, the ubiquitous (but more engaging than most) blog, lots of videos, photos, and links to projects (including a profile by Apple) and this bit:
…we are currently competing as an Ideablob finalist to win $10,000 to develop web tools aimed at helping performing arts groups to build and broaden online audience involvement. The prize goes to the idea that receives the most online user votes.
It’s too late to vote…but I confess to finding a bit of tension as I check the site and wonder if they won? Here’s their idea, in case you would like to join in the suspense…
