In this podcast episode, we talk to Dublin-based inclusive violinist and multi-genre artist Jane Hackett about Ireland's Basic Income for the Arts Scheme, the benefits it brought to Jane and other artists' work and wellbeing, the broader impact on the arts sector, and the socioeconomic case for schemes like it being implemented further afield. We also discuss how Jane reinvented her practice around inclusivity and access following a diagnosis of Functional Neurological Disorder (FND), and the fairness of non-means tested lottery-based funding applications.
