I want to try a thing. I have many creative habits. All of them very diverse and a very good many related to my highly variable somewhat autistic tendencies.
I generally have multitudes of 'projects' on the go at any one time. A vast number of them lie unfinished - I like to think they are just dormant, waiting for a critical component to drop into place. A lot of the time I tend to go through Phases, where one project or one of its spawn - maybe a 'type' of project becomes the focus - often obsessively so. At least until it withers again for some unfathomable or pedantic reason.
But here's the thing. The internet information network is polluted to fuck. The psychology of the internet, particularly the 'Social Media' networks is rabid.
It is un-ethical, corrupt, raping our minds and psychologies by design.
I have stepped away from the most popular social media platforms and retreated into the woods.
If you know me, you'll know I have always had this fiercely independent mentality. It's hard for me to describe because I have to look at it from the inside out, but I like the physical, real world. I really do.
Anyway. Part of the aim of this ["New"], project is to try to focus some of my creative energies into a short daily burst of activity - for a while at least. I don't know how sustainable this is going to be on a long term basis.
The idea is to have a 20 minute, focussed time to use whatever is to hand to create some thing and publish it each day - or at least as often as I can.
Don't expect sense.
Don't expect polish.
The idea is 20 minutes of creative activity, as often, as regular as I can manage.
Be lucky to make it past the weekend I reckon. But there we go. We'll see.
Welcome.
I've set a timer by the way, so I'll be tapping away until the buzzer goes off. 40 seconds to go then.
16, and
