Michael Snook founded NIMBY with no initial investment in April of 2004. His hard work and dedication have built not only a functional facility, but also a reputation for steady and levelheaded leadership in the Bay Area art community. There is hardly a major work at the Burning Man festival that has not benefited from Snookʼs knowledge, resources and assistance. His extensive connections in the construction and shipping industry have enabled the procurement of materials and resources making impossible purchases affordable. Before founding and running NIMBY he was a property manager and construction superintendant for over 20 years.

Hi
Keep doing great work:)
Is it possible to use the Kickstarter software as open source for other uses too? For example to
create a 'Creativity Collaboration version of your site'?! where any funds generated are invested in creating innovative projects that 'do good'
It would be great if it were possible to create away for innovative
people to collaborate even easier online by building on your community
(one example is the software theps.net have created) and to create a
collaboration and innovation crowdsourced/funded network.
There is open source software out there that we can use to do this and I
would love to crack on with helping your team do this.
Is this possible?

Congratulations Michael and everyone involved!! SO AWESOME!! A Happy New Year indeed!
Yay! I'm so glad to see you're over your goal! Go go NIMBY!
come on guys, its almost done!!!!! CONGRATS DUDES!!!!
Congratulations of completing your goal!
Best wishes. I'll have to come check out the site some time, I had never even heard of it till now :-(
The City has returned our engineering and we get to live. The changes required are far less involved than getting to this point. Something along the lines of - that door needs to open out - add an exit sign here - The break room counter needs to be one inch lower - ect.
Wow, doubled up overnight, now to the triple. I am going to up my donation to help.
Heya Snook!
I have updated the site to try and spread the word.
I will construct a wall sculpture similar to the one I just finished and dedicated,
for the highest pledge delivered over $1500.
