There has long been the association with creativity and the self-destructive 'demon' forces that plague the most ferocious of artists. But what exactly is the nature of these forces, and can they be managed?
In this episode we have a look at a little figurine that sits on my desk each day, that of Colonel Vasquez, the wise cracking heavy gunner from the 1986 sci-fi thriller 'Aliens'. Vasquez has on her chest plate the phrase ' El Riesgo Siempre Vive', meaning 'The Risk Always Lives'. When we are jumping into anything, we are taking risks. Hell, even being alive is risky, and none of us makes it out alive. So while we are around, what are we doing with ourselves? Why do we allow ourselves to be paralised by fear into inaction? I break all this shit down, hope you get something from it.
In this episode I discuss 'The Radiant Mind' and draw parallels from one of the shortest - and most powerful - teachings in the Buddha's reportaire, and its relationship to our creative practice. But what is 'the radiant mind?' tune in and find out!
We also cover 'The Sun' in the Tarot
In today's episode of the podcast I talk about the concept of 'ardency' and its relation to creative pursuits and principles. If you aren't across this terminology (and it can have a wide range of translations), it means 'enthusiasm', 'willingness' and also speaks to a sort of mental fortitude or adoptive quality determined by one's attitude or entry into a discipline. It can be cultivated, but in many senses, it comes simply down to your own grit and determination.
In today's episode of the Creative Podcast (23/04/2024) I talk about the importance of the process of repetition when it comes to developing your creative discipline. And how self knowledge can lead to self mastery. We also look at the Eight Of Pentacles as today's tarot as archetype study.
Do you struggle with overcommitment when you are making creative choices and dealing with creative endeavours? It's something that a lot of neurospicy people can struggle with - and while we might be well meaning, our initial enthusiasm, which means well, can actually lead to the suffering of others when we let them down.
Creative Rituals Founder and host Jesse Chard will be doing a daily podcast dropping at 9am each day Australian Eastern Time!
From the neuroscience of creativity, through to ancient techniques and practices and elements that Jesse has learned over his 25 year creative career, tune in for daily insights!
One of the most nerve wracking things for creatives is self promotion - so how can we break through the barriers of neurosis around our hangups and reluctance to get ourselves out there? In this episode, Jesse has a deep chat with Alex Wain, a master of digital communications and a pure authority on self-authorship and promotion.
What kind of psychological processes are at work when we point a camera at someone and ask them questions? Interviewing subjects has long been a refined art, and as more and more media creators all-in-one-operators, often being director, producer, interviewer and host, there's a lot to think about. So what should we do to prepare? In this chat, with cinematographer, director, and documentary filmmaker Peter Teys, we show that so much of the process is about knowing who YOU are as a creative operator.
We talk with Australian filmmaker, editor, producer, and all round creative powerhouse Maia Dal Berger about the subtle psychologies of the editing process - and discover that when it comes to the cut, there's more than meets the eye!
To what extent will AI influence the fundamental essence of creativity? We're presently witnessing substantial surges in this realm with the explosion of Large Language Models and Image, music and video generation services. However, what tangible impacts are emerging in the real world, and what's the genuine toll of unveiling this intricate enigma?
In the inaugural installment of the Creative Rituals podcast, join Jesse Chard in conversation with Andrew Stephen, a preeminent authority on media data analysis within the creative sectors in Australia. Andrew is presently at the forefront of designing frameworks and protocols concerning the ethical, economic and societal oversights of AI - something that Andrew says is vastly understated and almost missing in the conversation. In this episode, we delve into the realm of AI, ethics, and the evolving landscape of the industry.
