Anthony Brandt: Composer Who Realized Creativity Is Part Of Our DNA
The Chat
Dr. Anthony Brandt is a world-renowned composer, Professor of Composition and Theory at Rice University and co-author of The Runaway Species, a book that inspired the Netflix documentary, The Creative Brain - and deeply impacted our philosophy at Daydreamers.
In our chat today, Tony (or Dr. Brandt) shares some awe-inspiring truths about the human experience - most importantly: creativity is part of our DNA. As humans, our ability to imagine a future that doesn’t yet exist is literally what makes us different from llamas or robots, and what Dr. Brant calls “magical.”
Tony not only does a brilliant job at explaining the biological and neurological research behind creativity, but he also gives accessible and tactical advice about how to exercise this muscle in our daily lives. As a career artist and composer, Dr. Brandt walks through the exact steps he takes to buck fear, access vulnerability and create something new.
Join us for a deep conversation about what makes us human over robots (or llamas), how we can move beyond fear to actually start creating every day, and what we need to do to access our imagination and logic at the same time.
