FWIW, I use Kickstarter solely as a way to fund art projects, a sort of modern art patronage system if you will.

I've never even considered that the consumer electronics projects are art in their own right.



Is only funding art intentional or haven't you seen anything in different categories that you wanted (and were willing to spend $X for)?

I've only funded a CD for my friends' band, but if I wasn't a student (aka, had disposable income), there are quite a few things in the consumer electronics space that I would have loved to pick up.


I guess I never really thought about it. I've never gone looking for things to fund -- I've only funded stuff my friends are doing.
