I am growing fonder of in-person energy; that physical, three-dimensional, multi-sensory experience of another person. I find that I’m walking away from 1:1 encounters with more energy and enthusiasm for myself and my art practice. It doesn’t matter if I’ve been helped or if I’m the one who did the helping, it’s the same. I walk away ‘better’, more ‘full’. It’s the complete opposite feeling I have when I interact with someone online. So why would I do the latter?
Is there value in being consistent & predictable? Is there value in the opposite?
What if we chose to build our own neural networks instead of the networks of enormous and extractive software companies?
Could thinking of ourselves as a characters in an unwritten movie help us process good and bad surprises and make the movie more interesting?
How do I organise, prioritise and complete the life shrapnel that gets in the way of making more significant work? Can an empty square help?
Why bother making a weird idea that’s really difficult to make if it won’t make you money, find an audience?
