Slow(er) Gigging

Difficulties and potential benefits encountered by musicians in reducing the impact of their travel

We all know that not everyone has the privilege, capacity, ability or access to infrastructure to avoid flying. It is also clear that the greening of the music industry can not rely solely on individual behavior.
.
This survey is simply to help me, Nono (Gigsta), get a better sense of the variety of experiences encountered by musicians through intentional gigging and land+sea travels. 
.
Yours answers will only be read by me though they might help me when I am asked to communicate on the topic with promoters, journalists, researchers and institutions or via my newsletter. No quotes or information will be shared without me asking for your permission first.

NB: this is a DIY survey, not a professional endeavor! I am primarily trying to have a conversation with peers. If you have any questions or suggestions, please write me at nono@gigsta.de
1.Nice to see you here!
Which email address can I use to reach out to you?
2.Would you like to introduce yourself?
Feel free to share any of the following: your name and/or artist name, pronouns, where you are from/where you are currently based, the kind of music you play, any links to your work, etc.
3.Have you ever considered doing the transport for your gigs differently and if so, why? 
4.Can you describe one journey that could be done by plane but that you (once or regularly) have done per land and/or sea travel? 
5.What are the biggest challenges that you have encountered so far (cultural, financial, aesthetic, etc.) when travelling differently? If you are able to describe a particular situation, please be as precise as possible.
6.Have you also experienced any benefits?
7.Do you think any other protagonists of the scene (audience and fans, booking agencies, institutions, journalists and media, other artists, promoters) could help you be more sustainable and if so, how?
8.Are there any other tools, resources or platforms that have helped you? Or that would help you if they existed?
9.Are you having conversations with other members of your community about the ecological impact of our practices? If so could you describe them? Or do you feel like it is either a taboo or not a concern?
10.Would you like to add any other general thoughts about land+sea travel, slow(er) and intentional gigging, or issues related to the music industry and climate crisis?
