Podcast about fearless creative living.
Recording from my Masterclass. In this episode I share everything I've learned in the past decade - I introduce a counter narrative, question commonly held beliefs and tal about my journey of walking through fear as a way of life.
Project by musician Anders Remark and Mat. I read from Pseudo, Anders composed a sick track. In our performance I play synth with Anders live.
I dette afsnit svarer jeg på følgende spørgsmål: Oplever du, at dine værker i forskellige materialer løfter hinanden, og er det en fordel, du har flere forskellige produkter at tilbyde? Hvordan prissætter du dine værker? Hvordan kom du i gang med din virksomhed? Hvad er din baggrund? Hvem ser du som din kundegruppe? - og hvordan rammer du denne gruppe? (PR, medier …) Hvilke gode råd har du til en nystartet, som gerne vil kunne drive forretning i den 'kunstneriske' verden? Hvilken udfordringer er der ved at producere i flere forskellige materialer? Her er hvad spørgeren svarede: Jeg kunne ikke have mere glad og taknemmelig, fordi det rørte mig meget at høre dig fortælle om din rejse og din måde at skabe på. Det kan godt være lidt ensomt når man ikke kender andre som arbejder på samme måde og jeg kunne genkende mig selv i dine ord. Det var meget inspirerede at høre og jeg vil tage den frem og lytte til når jeg tvivler på det er okay at gøre det som gør mig glad.
