Art & Design: Creative Spaces
Art & Design. Creative Spaces: We usually kick-off our brainstorming sessions with a little MF Doom. How do you call your muse? Inspiration can be difficult to find so when we come across articles like this one, they're keepers.
Recently, Gapingvoid published an article entitled How to be Creative. It's pretty insightful. Written in a self account format, it reads easy and leads off with a list of tips. As GV reports: "The more original your idea is, the less good advice other people will be able to give you. When I first started with the cartoon-on-back-of-bizcard format, people thought I was nuts. Why wasn't I trying to do something more easy for markets to digest i.e. cutey-pie greeting cards or whatever? You don't know if your idea is any good the moment it's created. Neither does anyone else. The most you can hope for is a strong gut feeling that it is. And trusting your feelings is not as easy as the optimists say it is. There's a reason why feelings scare us."
