Our previous post on Imprint Culture Lab 2008: The Cult of Collaboration was interesting. Imprint recently posted a few more videos. This one in on making and selling your own arts and crafts.

Their panel of the DIY/Crafts community leaders discussed their own work as it has garnered cult-status, and how that affects the larger world of curious creators working in tactile media.

Panel: Jill Bliss, Matt Stinchcomb, Jamie Chan

Moderator: Eric Nakamura from Giant Robot

The things we found interesting were founder Jamie Chan talking about Bazaar Bizarre and Matthew Stinchcomb talking about Etsy. Anyone with great arts and crafts can have their own business whether in person with Bazaar Bizarre or online with Etsy.com. We kept thinking of Joyce Wan, who started Wan Art while watching this clip.
