Why Make Anything?

In this installment of the Regenerative Questions series, I explore why it's worth it (or maybe it isn't) to make anything in this world of ours. In the face of a torrent of art and content (not to mention AI), what's the point in making things at all?   As always, I explore this question using philosophy and the thoughts of some great creators, as well as provide ten actionable experiments you can use to bolster your own creative process.    🌳 Things mentioned in this episode:  - ToSalem: https://tosalem.com - Salem's Ghosts Season One: https://youtu.be/LkG7aCdXL9s?si=QkW7r41_tEyNUUSK - Salem's Ghosts Season Two: https://youtu.be/p05vQFXDz7Q?si=zrkYdMkT-vUCHA6s   ⭐ More about the host Joel Austin:   - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@joel_austin?sub_confirmation=1   - Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/joelaustin.bsky.social   - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/whyisjoelaustin   - IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1792430/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_3_tt_0_nm_8_in_0_q_joel%2520austin   - Site: https://joel-austin.com   - Email: [email protected]   ⭐ More about Beyond the Walled Garden:   - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkghuyUIQo2L5-X-gsEDwoVKDYuCYruc4   - Podcast Platforms: https://beyond-walled-garden.podbean.com/   - All Other Links: https://linktr.ee/beyondthewalledgarden
