Room to Experiment

5 August 2015

In the brilliant film  Ex Machina  the following exchange between two protagonists stuck with me:

Nathan : You know this guy, right? — Jackson Pollock. — Jackson Pollock.

Caleb : Excuse me?

Nathan : I’m Kirk. You know what? I can’t paint anything, unless I know exactly why I’m doing it.” What would have happened?

Caleb : He never would have made a single mark.


We keep looking for That Perfect Moment to start doing anything. some day .

You’ve got to play around with what you have today before you can satisfactorily move on to the next thing. wrong positions dearly . Question everything.

Engage intellect.
