MI Costs

What made this otherwise costly project affordable was the volunteer MI CDROM Support people, their contacts and the contributing artists (sure, some of them had to be bribed with coffee).

A large part of MI was to show that major projects are within the reach of independent artists. The independent artist can easily remain independent working collaboratively...
