WE LIVE IN WEIRD AND FASCINATING TIMES
Some say we’re on the brink of WW3, or the collapse of the Western world (“The Changing World Order”).
Others see a new renaissance emerging.
Depending on who you ask, we’re either inches away from dystopia — total surveillance, full AI automation, and the disappearance of human relevance — or standing before a portal to something extraordinary.
Everywhere you look, people are fighting.
Citizens, artists, “influencers,” the media, and entrepreneurs turn almost everything into politics and ideology.
And those avoiding the fight?
They’re often chasing views — posting rubbish with no substance, making junk food for the mind.
But there are still individuals out there.
Those at the fringes busy creating things they care about, expressing themselves authentically, experimenting, learning, and generating things of value along the path.
Not for trends. Not for followers.
But because being creative and inquisitive is what keeps us moving.
A PLACE WHERE:
- Creative creatures are sovereign — free in time, thought, and resources.
- Opposing views are welcome and sought after.
- Cancelling someone isn’t even a thought.
- “Content” gives way to Substance.
- Complaints become creations. Don’t like something? Build it.
- Quantity bows to Quality.
- Knowledge flows freely.
- Competence outweighs signaling.
- Technology is embraced — and so is the past.
- Art, science and engineering play together.
- Value — cultural or functional — is created.
- We make more playgrounds than galleries.
- You are you.
Who is this for?
- “Dark Talent” — a term popularized by Vijay Pande and Balaji Srinivasan to describe high-potential outsiders. People with fewer than 333 followers (networks combined) will be prioritized.
- Those with at least one meaningful personal project per year for the last three years (or one big one that justifies three).
- People who live by self-sovereignty.
- Those who can coexist with opposing views.
What’s in it for you?
Twilight Fringe is an experiment in facilitating connection and distribution for people obsessed with creating.
We believe those of us “at the fringes” thrive when we’re represented —and "hyperlinked"— under one shared platform.
We don’t have a roadmap, nor are we promising riches.
As they say, we first need to "fuck around and find out."
WHAT WE CAN OFFER, FOR NOW, IS SIMPLE:
- A promise to care about what you care about most.
- To act as co-producers of your projects — not just by attaching our name, but by helping you move from vision to final shape.
- To share our knowledge and tools with you.
Our core strength lies in Creative Production — facilitating development and giving an (inter)face to creative work. Because that is what we’ve been doing for entrepreneurs for over a decade.
We don’t want to own your work in exchange for our services.
At most, we are thinking of a 3-9% royalty on sales made through our own distribution channels, depending on our level of involvement during the creative production process (not after).
If that sounds like you — show yourself.
PS. If you have questions and feedback about our ways, please please please, shoot!
