More about this Episode
In this installment of the Regenerative Questions series, I explore why it’s worth it (or maybe it isn’t) to make anything in this world of ours. In the face of a torrent of art and content (not to mention AI), what’s the point in making things at all?
As always, I explore this question using philosophy and the thoughts of some great creators, as well as provide ten actionable experiments you can use to bolster your own creative process.
