Do you have a blog or website that is dedicated to the film? I really think you have a good thing going here and tremendous opportunities for blogger outreach and integrated marketing across channels. Again, I don''t mean this to sound like a pitch in any way, but people that are creating artistic passionate projects are my passion. Feel free to email me anytime. Maybe we could get on a quick call to see how I might get involved in the process. keith at keithburtis dot com As for the questions on the sweet spot... I think that is where you really want to let the related communities know what your doing and ask for feedback. Set up some monitoring to find the people talking about your key terms and areas of interest. Start by engaging there. Also, if you create a blog or website like presence you will be able to gain intelligence around your analytics. Have you checked out the marketing and community engagement around 'Lemonade Movie'. it's a great story of building up an artistic documentary around the digital community. Again, I stress sharing the process from the outset. It's much easier to start now and gain interest than it will be on the day of release. Look forward to chatting soon :) Keith (@keithburtis on twitter) Justine, Pasha: Thank you for the responses. Do you have a blog or website that is dedicated to the film?

We're honored and excited to have this chance to engage with the liberty community on both artistic and intellectual levels. There are a lot of processes going on for us to share ranging from: * The underlying ideas, such as hyper-inflation and currency competition, * Silver production itself (we're visiting a refinery in a couple of weeks), * Engaging with non-liberty communities, especially the comics world, * And the technical process of animation production. Any ideas on what will be a sweet spot, where to find the most passion? Take care and keep up your great work! Pasha. Keith -

The topic would interest me a ton. I'm not in the local area but I would love to follow along with the story here and maybe offer some ideas on how you can foster and build community. I will subscribe via RSS interested to see how you move forward with this. One of the things that I am telling people all along is to "share the process". By sharing from the outset you will gain advocates, collaborators and supporters. I commend you for launching this the right way. Looks like a tremendous opportunity and project.

By allying with the 60's Radical New Left, violent leftist militias, and other Leninists, Rothbard diluted the libertarian brand and made it virtually impossible for free-market conservatives to embrace Rothbard's brand of libertarianism. Anarcho-capitalism is a philosophy wholly outside the great classical liberal tradition, a cornerstone of which is the Rule of Law. Anarchy, whether anarcho-capitalism, anarcho-syndicism, or anarcho-socialism, subjects men to mob rule and perpetual chaos. It is inconsistent with freedom and with capitalism. Peter Schwartz does a great job explaining the terrible folly of anarcho-capitalism in his essay "Libertarianism: The Perversion of Liberty" As the self-proclaimed father of libertarianism throughout the sixties and seventies, Murray Rothbard perhaps bears the most responsibility for marginilizing the once great classical liberal movement.
