Make money doing the work you believe in
Indeed, Indy…like the essay “Word/Bird is not the Thing” and “Fish is not Fish”, “Creativity” is not we have come to think it is as.
Iain Kerr and Jason Frasca (+ Andrew Harrison) of Emergent Futures Lab are doing some fascinating work in rewilding creativity. I am a fan of their work. In their manifesto for new creativity, they write:
“Creativity is not solely the purview of humans. Creativity, the processes by which the production of novel differences happens, is a general quality of all reality.
Everything that exists are processes of becoming – from atoms, to mountains, to life, to concepts, to communities that must be created and creatively maintained. These creative processes dwarf and extend far beyond the human in awesome and endlessly astonishing ways. We live in a complex, spontaneously self-organizing emergent creative reality that will always exceed us.
Our human creativity thus involves a skillful joining with, and an acting as a helpmate to reality’s already ongoing creative processes.”
