This Episode Isn’t Original. And That’s the Point

But somewhere between subscribers 15 and 14,000, I realized it didn't feel like I was creating.And anytime I tried to make something original? I froze.Then I rewatched three videos — Mark Ronson’s TED Talk, Everything Is a Remix, and The Great Art of Interpretation — and it felt like someone had quietly removed the wall I’d been smashing my head against for a year.This video is the result.It’s not original.But it is mine.Includes literal references to:→ Mark Ronson’s TED Talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3TF-hI7zKc→ Everything is a Remix by Kirby Ferguson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9RYuvPCQUA→ The Great Art of Interpretation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hQLp2Cl49QIf you make music, movies, videos, art, blogs, code, comics, shirts, zines, or literally anything creative... this is for you.And yes — this video is a remix of those 3 videos.Call it a video essay. Call it a creative confession.Either way, this is me showing up.
