Anti-Alias
Whether you flatten the world into binaries, or allow for nuance, complexity, and blurry edges.
Scott Tannen and the Decision to Take Outside Money
Anti-Alias is about resisting black-and-white thinking and allowing for nuance. Scott Tannen had long held a binary view — bootstrapping meant integrity, outside money meant compromise. His shift came when he stopped treating this as an either/or and recognized that taking a limited, structured investment could actually protect the mission rather than threaten it. He moved from a flat binary to a more nuanced read of the situation.
