Permission Based Un-productivity | :: designsiren ::
https://designsiren.wordpress.com/2009/09/24/permission-based-un-productivity
Inside a designer's mind. You came here because we do this better than you. Part of that is letting our creative be unproductive until they are. Don Draper, Mad Men. Not sure I have ever heard that put so well. I think the better you are at this type of work, the more latitude you are given. You are allowed bouts of being unproductive, because the end result is usually worth waiting for. Am I suggesting a wild foosball tournament or riding lawn movers through the office instead of meeting a deadline?

Mini Bucket List | :: designsiren ::
https://designsiren.wordpress.com/2010/08/16/mini-bucket-list
Inside a designer's mind. The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.”. Am I not just a tad young to be thinking of bucket lists? Perhaps, perhaps not. Photograph the Aurora Borealis. 8211; I don’t have the location in mind, be it Iceland, Alaska or Norway, that is largely irrelevant to me. I want to be able to experience how magical and completely surreal it must be to feel like you are inside a painting. Drive cross country – I want to drive across the US to see how amazing...

Love is…a Mix Tape. | :: designsiren ::
https://designsiren.wordpress.com/2010/10/26/love-is-a-mix-tape
Inside a designer's mind. Love is…a Mix Tape. It is a lovely, sweet, gut-wrenching story by Rob Sheffield. Go read it. It is also a truth. I am a goober. Well-known, unfortunately well-documented fact.}. Let’s not be crazy, I of course, love and appreciate sparkly things. But I can buy my own sparkly things if I wanted to. One of my top 5). That stranger of a songwriter can better articulate how you feel than you can. I miss the days of cassettes (or CDs for that matter), of the physical representation o...

Inside a designer's mind. You know how I know you’re a nerd? I know you’re a nerd because you get geeked out at the idea of getting a new Mac Pro quad processor….at the prospect of upgrading your Creative Suite…with the accomplishment of implementing a new javascript. Yes you my dear are a nerd. Believe me when I say I realize I am about 2 episodes away from full-blown Trekkie. Laquo; Permission Based Un-productivity. Real music chooses you….

https://designsiren.wordpress.com/2012/01/30/the-well-is-dry
Inside a designer's mind. The well is …dry? I had an awful thought last week. What if I run out of ideas? What if there is a finite number that we are all allowed? Some people never come close to using them up so they never notice, but others blow through them, sharing them here and there like gangbusters and then in their mid thirties just go blank. For all of eternity. No more craft projects, no more baking concoctions, no more writing, no more photography, no more trips, no more painting. Fill in your...

Real music chooses you… | :: designsiren ::
https://designsiren.wordpress.com/2010/08/07/real-music-chooses-you
Inside a designer's mind. Real music chooses you…. Here ‘s a theory for you to disregard…completely. Music, you know– true music–not just rock ‘n’ roll– it chooses you. It lives in your car, or alone, listening to your headphones– you know,. With the vast, scenic bridges and angelic choirs in your brain. It’s a place apart…from the vast, benign…lap of America. Occasionally when certain songs are heard unexpectedly, it is like taking a bullet. The highs and the lows! The push and the pull! Favorite spots ...

Inside a designer's mind. Where does inspiration come from? As an artist, we rely on this invisible muse to swoop in and drive our creative process. I saw a speech that Elizabeth Gilbert gave on nurturing creativity. As a brief aside, I absolutely love her way of speaking and writing, she I find absolutely inspiring. I digress. Personally I often wonder how people do finance or accounting all day. But where do these ideas come from? Sometimes I have no idea where the ideas come from, and let me just say&...
