ain't no rules
But I need my guests, my students, my muses my mentors, my geniuses. I need you to understand this. There ain't no rules, there ain't no rules. You know, we get filled with rules. We walk into any new situation and we go, OK, what are the rules around here? How will we play this thing? Right? We there ain't no rules. We are the makers of rules, right? We are kings and queens. We are the makers of rules. Um especially commercial designers are so used to looking for the rules, relying on the rules on grids and typography and color and how things are supposed to be. And this is how we do it here in this office and this bullshit. Um And we're so used to asking for permission and I don't want people to ask for permission. I want people to, to, to come into a project and go, you know what we need to do. We need to buy some baby chicks and then we need to get some camera equipment and then we're gonna keep the chicks alive and we're gonna do a film of them dancing and we're gonna, I want peop...

I really enjoyed the frank style that the class was delivered. Jealous of the 4 students who were in person. I work as an Aerospace engineer and am trying to find a way to relearn to be creative. This class and the exercises made me think and I have noticed that I enjoy taking different perspectives during boring meetings and drawing doodles that make me smile. Unexpectedly, my coworkers have said my work has improved lately. I think because I have become more open to possibilities outside of the tried and true.
