Got to give a little if you want people to be interested. What separates your request from the bazillion others that a potential artist might see? Even if it’s just a request to talk more, an artist can only process so many of them. If you describe your awesome idea, it’s a lot less of a risk for an artist to look further into it.
Honestly, I’m a bit reluctant to describe my idea in too much detail in an open forum. The publishing industry is highly competitive. I was hoping, perhaps foolishly, that my background would be enough to at least get an artist interested in talking with me.
I understand that some industries can be highly competitive, but good ideas are a dime a dozen. Especially vaguely specified ideas. You don’t have to post a detailed story board of every scene, and anything less than that I wouldn’t expect anyone to be able to steal. It is very hard and generally not worth it to complete random interesting sounding creative ideas formulated by someone else. Especially consider the rarity of good understanding of singularity stuff. If someone were looking for a good idea to rip off, there are better sources.
Take my opinion with a grain of salt, of course, I know next to nothing about your industry.
