Distillation

There are too many inputs in our world, if you make the mistake of checking social media. The world became more connected and the options for what to do and what to think are endless. How does anyone chose a direction and focus?

Distillation.

Distillation is what happens when you stop thinking about everything directly and you let your mind simmer. What rises to the surface? What connects? What comes to you in clear visions?

If I can see it - when I get a clear, detailed image for a future, I listen to that. I study that. I record that. That is a message from the muse. That is the distillation of all the relevant inputs put into a comprehensible form.

I got one of these the other morning. It had three prongs:

Sculptures for property developments in Vegas.
Sculptures for touring musical artists in LA.
Sculptures for high end galleries in New York.

I can see these. I will take the small steps toward actualizing these visions. I am not sure why I am supposed to do things or why any of them ‘make sense’ or when. But they arose in detail so I will take them seriously. I can get into the weeds of what they are a reaction to or what I hope to get out of pursuing them, but none of that is necessary. My job is to plant the seeds, tend to them, and see what emerges.

I wonder what will happen over the next ten years. So curious.
