Ivy with Spencer Harrison in conversation with David Eastaugh Ivy formed in 1992 when Spencer Harrison sought some additional musicians to play a batch of songs she had written for her previous band, which split before gigging. She was joined by brothers Paul (ex-Shine!) and Julian Cator on guitars, and later by Justin Rolph on bass. After failing to recruit a suitable drummer they decided to continue to use their Cheetah drum machine, and played their first gig at Norwich Arts Centre on April 26 1993, supporting the Bardots. Their first release was the track "Wish You Would" on the Noisebox compilation 12" Backwater One, released in autumn 1993. The song was immediately picked up by Radio 1, getting played on both the Evening Session and the John Peel show, and an Ivy session recorded at Radio 1's Maida Vale studios was broadcast on the Evening Session in January 1994. Drum programming from now on was taken over by Noisebox boss Pete Morgan.
Spencer is a fascinating visual artist and perhaps summarizing his work best is his biogrpahy which states "Inspired by his background in science, Spencer draws from the scientific method, building his practice around a methodology of questioning, experimentation and perpetual curiosity." During our chat we uncover Spencer’s broad and deep reading habits along with his extremely intricate pre-exhbitiion workflow and preparation. He dishes out some really helpful links and resources he uses to source inspiration, reference materials, unpublished books from the 1800s and beyond. We talk about everything from how play is a hugely important part of the experimentation and creative process to how Spencer’s mindfulness practice influences his artwork.

"Play has been something that has been very prominent in my practice, since I studied at Uni." "The other think I like to do when I'm in a bit more of an experimental phase, is even like delete social media off my phone." "I don't really kind of think of an idea and then create an artwork, I more kind of like create an artwork parallel to an idea and then the two kind of come together at some point." "A lot of kind of creating art is about finding out about yourself." "With the creative process, if you have infinite possibilities, it just leads to infinite anxiety, so having some kind of structure helps focus you a little bit and give you a starting point." "The actual making of the artwork is the most enjoyable part of the process for me." "I actually like physically kind of working with paint and materials and sanding things and you know putting them together, it's a very kind of meditative and satisfying process."

Spencer Harrison, an associate professor at INSEAD, says that managers in any industry can learn from the success of the Marvel movie franchise. While some sequels lack creativity, Marvel manages to make each of its new releases just different enough, so consumers are not just satisfied but also surprised. Research shows that several strategies drive this success; they include bringing in different types of talent while also maintaining a stable core creative team then working together to challenge the superhero action-film formula. And, Harrison argues, leaders in other industries and functions can easily apply them to their own businesses. He is the co-author of the HBR article "Marvel's Blockbuster Machine."
