TED演讲：Theartofasking请求的艺术(12)

在人类历史上的大部分时期，音乐人、艺术家是社群的一部分, 他们促进沟通，开拓新领域，不是无法触及的明星。成为名人意味着有很多人从远方爱你， 然而因特网 和我们在网络上自由共享的内容 拉近了名人和支持者的距离。现在则是一小部分人近距离的 为你提供足够的支持。很多人不理解没有标准定价 这个概念。
They see it as an unpredictable risk, but the things I"ve done, the Kickstarter, the street, the doorbell,I don"t see these things as risk. I see them as trust. Now, the online tools to make the exchange as easy and as instinctive as the street,they"re getting there. But the perfect tools aren"t going to help us if we can"t face each other and give and receive fearlessly , but, more important, to ask without shame .
他们认为这些有着不可预料的冒险，但是我所做的事情 Kickstarter，在街头募款，按陌生人的门铃 我不认为这些事情是风险。我认为它们是信任。现在，网络工具让这种交流 像在街头请求帮助一样简单和自然， 它们即将实现这种转变。然而如果我们无法直面彼此 无所畏惧的给予和接受 无论多么完美的工具也无法帮助我们。更重要的是 不因请求帮助而感到羞愧。
My music career has been spent trying to encounter people on the Internet the way I could on the box , so blogging and tweeting not just about my tour dates and my new video but about our work and our art and our fears and our hangovers, our mistakes, and we see each other. And I think when we really see each other, we want to help each other.
