I'm a freelance developer and I've always been fascinated by the contemporary art scene using technology.

I want to work as an assistant/aid to an artist who might be needing code as part of their project (graphic, NLP, ...).

What would be the best strategy to find someone interested in my services (money is not my goal) ?

Is there a platform / website where artists are looking for outside help ?

Should I candidly approach artists directly ?

Feel free to be brutally honest, I need a reality check :-)

Thanks !
