Flow: Simplify Your Life

I was interviewed for the recent Simplify Your Life issue of Flow magazine from the Netherlands!




Here's a rough translation:
12. Set yourself achievable goals
Creativity requires action, says Noah Scalin, creative. "Stop thinking and start doing! The creativity is already inside of you, the secret is taking action instead of just thinking about making things. Give yourself small manageable creative goals (i.e. make something that fits in the palm of your hand) and then just do it on a regular schedule (daily? 3 times a week? Once a week?) without judging the outcome. Think of it as exercise for your brain. The more you make, the better you’ll get!"
 
Noah Scalin makes images and photos, he paints, writes and creates illustrations from  paper. Also he created the Skull-A-Day project: see how Noah made a skull every day for a year. "It was such a pure creative expression and I loved that something that at first seemed ridiculous and personal turned out to be so life changing for me and has reached so many people all over the world! " Noah's latest book The Design Activist's Handbook has just appeared. Noah's Skull a Day project can be found on Skulladay.com.



The article also features Darth Buttons image I created for the Star Wars Remix project!

Flow magazine from the Netherlands recently interviewed me for an article about daily projects!  I can't actually read it, so hopefully I make sense in Dutch...




The article also features interviews with the creators of several other projects that heave been featured on this site including A Granny A Day, 365 Jars, and Peggy Tourchette's 365 Birds.

The magazine itself is really beautiful and features a bunch of cool things inside, including a giant wall chart with 365 ideas and sources of inspiration including a whole bunch of other projects by folks that have been on the site (and many that haven't).


If you can read Dutch I highly recommend getting a copy of this issue for yourself. More info is HERE.
