blog blog, when to blog
for those about to rock we salute you. AC/DC have a line for it, an advertising exec will have a line too, just when to tell someone about something you've just done, when it's so fresh there's a feeling of something that's hard to describe but you know it's there and you look for a release. Is that the point to rush to your blog and tell the world, get it out there, splurt, shout, whatever one needs to do. I've done some editting of some footage shot back in the summer. I'm excited by it, is that what it's about, that excitement, that moment of rush, a feeling above the background level of feeling.
Is that the essence of studying a creative process, when you get excited, that's when you'll want to rush into a crit and enthouse about what you've been doing, even though you known that the staff aren't into what you're into, and let's face it, that's the point at which studying a creative process becomes hard work and very demoralising. I wonder, do staff on creative courses leave their personal preferences at the door each morning and have the larger picture of the benefit to the student in mind.
For now, I know that I've begun working towards that presentation as soon as we start back, that recap of the last bit of the second year, that recap of the summer, the recap of those lazy days of idealogical thinking and feeling anything is possible.
When to blog ? I'd say whenever it feels like something you want to do.
