Let Creativity...

Edgar Allen Poe telling you to lie in this coffin and wait, Rocky A$AP being submerged underwater in a tank on the floor of Sotheby's, and lights dancing from tree to tree, are just some examples of the experiences Asher Young and his teams manifest. His design studio, Challenge Your Imagination (found here:) Creative Direction, Design, & Producing | Challenge Your Imagination | New York (cyi.studio), is not only about pushing the boundaries of imagination, but it's also about connection. That theme is something Asher brings up throughout the interview and what struck me is both how needed it is and how passionate Asher is about giving it to the world. He speaks about this and so much more in this season 4 finale episode. Thank you Asher and thank you to your team for all of your hard work. Personally, I can't wait to see what you will create next. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/letcreativity/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/letcreativity/support

Joshua Marquez is a talented Filipino-American composer, sound artist and guitarist who has received death threats. Why has he received death threats? The answer is something I'm still processing, although Mr. Marquez explains it thoroughly and transparently in this episode. Unfortunately this is not the first guest who has spoken about their experience with racism. The amazing thing is, like previous guests, Joshua uses his art to bring awareness to this issue, and for cathartic purposes. He uses creativity, in one of it's most powerful and highest forms - as medicine for himself and as a sword of truth for the rest of us who may still be ignorant of the sheer depth of hatred there is in this world. And, almost miraculously, the way he expresses the complex emotions he has, is pure beauty. That in itself is a major feat to accomplish. The strength it takes to channel all of those powerful feelings and then translate it into a piece of music that adds to the world - I just can't say enough about. In addition to diving into the depths of the underworld of composing, Joshua also explains his creative process, shares bits of wisdom his mentors gave to him and breaks down composing in a way that makes people feel like they too can start composing at any age.

Nina is CEO of Bay Area Children's Theatre which has won awards as well as toured nationally and internationally. She also is a person who understands the ins and outs of creativity, just look at her answers to the 4 questions I ask every guest: 1) What is creativity? "Creativity is the magical combination of a spark of an idea and the discipline to go on the journey, including the struggles to allow that spark to become a beautiful flame." 2) What do you love about creativity? "I love that creativity allows for discovery and failure simultaneously. I love that creativity has no limits or bounds. I love that creativity can make an entire world appear and disappear in the length of a breath. But mostly, I love that creativity can be the ultimate conduit to connection." 3) What do you hate about creativity? "It's hard. There's no way that a creative process can ever happen without at least a few hours, a few days or a few months of staring at a wall, completely convinced that everything you are doing is terrible and that it will never work out." 4) Where is your creativity? "My creativity lives in the shine of my daughter's eyes when she laughs at a story we are creating together. It's in nature. It's on the pages where I write. It's on the stages where I direct. It's everywhere I look, as long as I remember to open my eyes." Her passion is creativity, stories and story-telling for children and adults alike and that definitely is apparent throughout this episode. She talks about the power of dyslexia, and how it shaped her mind and also gives 5 excellent tips on how to bring creativity into parenting, so keep an ear out for them.
