Yeah, once you are free of those blocks then creative process is very easy, in my experience. Shit’s like breathing.
Once I go into musician route, I already know that I’m just going to have a field day and become a complete psycho… more than I already am. Lmao. People I know already pester me telling me to create something, I’m always like “meh, later”.
Freaky thing though, is that I’m good friends many local artists in my city. They’re not mainstream but they’re full on into their work and aiming to rise - like it’s their life. It’s freaky because the listening experience is intimate and almost invasive. You literally know this person for a while and now you’re taking a headfirst dive, immersing yourself in all of their emotions and expression.
I’m a deep thinker, while people are focused on the end artwork, I’m focused on the process such as “where the fuck did this person go to get here”. Or “what inspired this”. Like their internal process.
So when I’m listening to some people’s work that I know… I’m not even listening to their work… it feels like I’m going into them, deeper. It’s freaky. It hits different when you’re hanging out with them because of that rapport. It’s such a vulnerable insight.
