Identity Defining & its Syndrome.

Seriously, we are tired. Well, at least can be. We can work on our identities as such yet there's a dint on the idea to do so when you fish at what you think are clean waters. You shouldn't & could never be at any destinations in this existence if you turn from rational thought to begin with & jump to the big shark with a titanic hook. Even so, you may feel some sort of stimulation, yet you may be nullifying the initial question of why it is so uncomfortable. Finding your idea of an identity to shape & mould you is a task that defines many misconceptions & blurred lines. This is the only pathway where the east meets the west as well as the north & south. Cliche, right? Well, not so, if the walk in your life has been leading you to a dead knock on your forehead on same walls. This is not identity results. It is the common results of a stiff necked motu of a carnival where you have no idea of who started the circus. & whether you want to stay in it as you are. If you do, the results of the most holiest of efforts can be quite enough to knock you out back home after a standard working day with the overbearing ness of the same problems you tackle & take at home with you. Even to your wife & kids. Gotta work, right? Self-explanatory. But what you do does not define who you are. Rather, who you are is what defines what you do. Sounds like a play on words but if you process this thread in your mind, you'll find a phrase so sound that it would give you the liberty to maybe even start thinking for yourself once more if you've stopped trying or have forgotten to. Other methods of self talk convincing & formulas we generate just won't hold the fundamental flaw that we are so used to ignoring as if almost we can live without it. Foolishness to think that self-identity solves itself, yet, we refuse to embrace everything that gets us closer to find our own unique voice.

What the technology surge means to the creative.

You've heard it before but it doesn't mean we all get the final picture. For the creative arts industry & record business, technology advancement has dictated our attitudes to our craft & what limits we put on our practice/s. For the artist, its been a great step up in terms of access to recording technologies not needing to much more than a soundcard & a computer. But, what it meant for the business is an out-pour of recorded works that diminished in demand strictly due to volume. Hence, the lack of what the current demand is also dictated the worth of even the best of artists in the recording industry that led to under-valued price tags just so streaming platforms can get their feed. That's ok with me for I have only really knew how to get by doing my own thing. But to the greats, its big business lost. & now, we all have grown to accept it. & it breaks 'fairness & due credit' where its due & really sad to have functioned on the dragon...

The business of doing & simple daily practices that enhances productivity.

What's productivity? How do you define its measure? How do you view it based on your priorities? What decides where you put your focus, time & energies on? These questions are what we most often quietly ask ourselves in our subconscious though often times, due to debris, fail to hear our most distinct voices as we are choked by the things & concerns of this world. My field of interest (sometimes a little obsessive, which is ok), being the general creative industries, specifically in music, its very difficult to see things as they appear & personally, I pray everyday to gain clarity within it all as a daily creative. We are in the age of free media, & for the musician, that's generally not what we want. Its not reasonable to pursue the record industry due to exhausted business models caused by the internet. On the other hand, its the most important thing in my life, though however questionable. Not because there's no income from it, but just because of the bu...

Questions of faith & reasoning.

Well, 2018. This makes this my very first entry for the year. I am caught up in the words I may have or haven't read about &/or spoke of in my early days of seeking the Christian faith & what I write about in this blog. & I am happy I have questioned myself & how scripture even may be still applicable today. Or if this didn't, it'd be still honestly the question of how it ever really did. I am a spiritual person & whether nature of belief is perfect, consider questions that points to the imperfection in you. The imperfections in us. Knowledge is worth nothing without further benefit. Thus, causing one to start questioning the reasons of why even bother seeking utopia when all else is hardly reached & seldom understood. Scripture for example raises a lot of issues, questions, fears & doubts. & double the trouble. Pretty scary to be real with it. Its what fuels my drive, desire & passion to communicate these specific questions through art ...
