Live from Makers Camp: A Panel Discussion on Creativity
Description
This past week I had the honor of once again of attending the Catskill Mountain Makers Camp in East Durham NY. Blacksmiths, woodworkers, artists and makers convene there for fellowship and general making. Tools, techniques and tricks galore with so many disciplines and things to see it can be over whelming. One of the highlights is that Photographer Mark Adams takes amazing portraits of all the attendees and captures excitement, enthusiasm and probably some other things I’ll get into with him when he comes on the podcast soon. Anyway, Mark approached me last year about leading a panel discussion on creativity and I was honored. He picked 4 incredibly diverse and creative people who have figured out a way to find their voices in the disciplines they chose. Leah Aripotch, Andrea De Leon, Joshua Prince and Keith Décent joined me for a conversation on Creativity and what to do with it and how to follow your own path. It was really fun to hear their perspective and hope it resonates with the listener. To give a little back office context, we were in a frozen tent with a space heater it was in the low 40º F and there were lots of trucks, golf carts, clanging, banging and grinding in the background. It was Makers Camp so that what you get, so please pardon the audio. It was great fun and I was honored to be apart of it. Thanks again Mark. All the best, -GF
