Become inspired, find your voice, and create work that matters. Why
are human beings driven to make? It's as if we collectively
intuited, long before science gave us the language, that the
universe bends toward entropy, and every act of creation on our
part is an act of defiance in the face of that evolving disorder.
When we pick up a paintbrush, or compose elements through our
camera viewfinders, or press fingers into wet clay to wrestle form
from a shapeless lump, we are bending things back toward Order and
wrestling them from Chaos. But making things is often not enough.
We also want the things we make to be filled with meaning. We're
each trying to describe what we know about life, to create a
collective sense of "safety in numbers." When we reach the end of
our traditional descriptive powers, it's time to weave collective
meaning from poetry, painting, writing, dancing, photographing,
filmmaking, storytelling, singing, animating, designing,
performing, carving, sculpting, and a million other ways we daily
create Order out of the Chaos and share it with each other for
comfort. On this journey we need a creative philosophy which will
help us find our voice, discover our message, deal with the
responses to our work, maintain inspiration, and stay mentally
healthy and motivated creators as we strive to find "the meaning in
the making." Table of Contents Chapter 1: Order Chapter 2: Logos
