A very brief artistic manifesto
1. To pursue joy; to pursue playfulness; to be looser, wilder, bolder, more reckless.
2. To be meticulous and precise, to sweat the details.
3. To not perceive (1) and (2) as being in opposition to one another (and I don't even think that it's a 'write drunk, edit sober' kind of thing.) But rather, the work of sweating the details has to be powered by joy and playfulness and recklessness or you don't have an interesting compass to orient yourself by.
4. To work hard when I can work hard, and rest when I need to rest, and not punish myself for whether I meet the yardstick in my head.
5. To prioritize, above all else, finding the good scent trails that make me feel like I have something worthwhile to say.
