The Space Between Your Notes
“Music is the space between the notes” – Claude Debussy I thought of this quote before discovering someone much more intelligent said it first. I was at a show listening to bluegrass virtuosos play so fast that it was hard to discern a space between notes. It made me realize that there was only one interpretation possible. There were no spaces for me to think or feel anything but the energy of their content.

Thursday, December 10, 2009
Discuss creativity and my embodied mock-up resembles random thinkers; those who, when confronted with a problem, make seemingly crazy connections that are nonetheless worth exploring. And – who is more random than Robin Williams?

Tuesday, December 1, 2009
This time, an addition of three items to the Permission To Suck Manifesto comes from my own attempts recently to reignite my passion for photography. It's not that I stopped enjoying the work but it's that I had forgotten what it felt like when everything felt new. Suspension of disbelief might be the answer - whatever works - but these three points have been rolling around in my head the past couple months.

Monday, November 23, 2009
Your frozen mental picture is attached to a narrative. Dreams feel like movies but the meaningful moment is a photograph in your mind with an ascribed story. Precise and complete recall isn’t called video graphic memory now is it? Video Presentation by David Griffin, National Geographic Magazine Director of Photography with links to Photographers featured in the presentation.

Monday, November 16, 2009
The artist has success with me if feeling threads don’t break as he/she reels me in. A paradox, an emotional a-ha moment; whatever the established connection can be destroyed if the artist comes on too strong by telling me how to feel about my journey. Simultaneously beautiful and ugly, Edward Burtynsky's photos of manufactured landscapes are perfect examples of artistic paradox. Featured: Video Interview of Canadian photographer, Edward Burtynsky

Monday, November 9, 2009
Skill is math already proven. Not only are skills easy for culture to appreciate, our education from pre-K is about skill development and learning the rules. We have standards, objectives and tests. Skill is linear, owning them isn’t unique except to say one has more than another or that their skills are good. This post includes a segment of a Charlie Rose interview with painter Chuck Close.

Thursday, October 29, 2009
Terry Richardson reminds us that photography can be a very basic tool. By reducing it to a simple capture of emotions the authenticity is preserved, the blather is eliminated and it feels as personal as discovering photos on a friend’s Face Book page. Needless finesse of the craft is sacrificed to capture the raw motivation of the moment.

Monday, October 5, 2009
Good advice for marketers: When designing worlds, leave an impression that will surround the characters in the foreground, they carry their world with them. Keith KK Barrett talks about production design.

Thursday, October 1, 2009
I’ve seen time lapse before, who hasn’t? Maybe it’s a shaky seedling sprouting from the ground or a street scene with jittery people. Yet, there’s an emotion to Ben’s short films that I find unexpected. Not only is the still frame that captures the motion well considered but the motion itself has a power beyond the usual “cool” of time compression.
