“Ideas are like fish. You don’t make the fish, you catch the fish.” A lovely animated version of David Lynch’s musings on where to find great ideas.
From The Atlantic:
In 2008, The Atlantic sat down with the filmmaker David Lynch as he mused about inspiration and how to capture the flow of creativity. Now, we’ve animated his words of advice. “A lot of artists think that suffering is necessary,” he says. “But in reality, any kind of suffering cramps the flow of creativity.”
Enjoy his artistic embrace of epicurean philosophy. Artists thrive in the absence of suffering.
