What happens when you sell your company to Amazon for nearly a billion dollars? For Twitch co-founder Justin Kan, it meant following an unexpected passion - building one of Burning Man's most impressive art installations and launching a music label focused on community.

From constructing a 70-foot iceberg with 200,000 LEDs to learning to DJ while building it, Justin's journey offers powerful insights about community building that apply at any scale. His transition from tech entrepreneur to artist reveals principles about authenticity, collaboration, and finding fulfillment that transcend industries.

Key Takeaways:

  • Why community-first thinking creates sustainable projects
  • How to build something meaningful without focusing on profit
  • Practical approaches to collaborative creative projects
  • Why giving value to others creates stronger communities
  • The importance of enjoying the process over the outcome
  • How to maintain authenticity while scaling a creative project
