EP: 002 – The 15 Minute Mixdown: Having and Collecting Experiences
This episode of The Modern Recordist is the first ever edition of “The 15 Minute Mixdown”
In this episode, show host Jon Stinson discusses ideas around the topic of having and collecting experiences. In episode 001 with Paul Sikes, this topic was briefly touched on, but this edition of The 15 Minute Mixdown serves as an opportunity to dive into the subject matter a bit more.
Inspired by a Bob Lefsetz blog post on a similar subject matter, Jon shares thoughts on the importance of collecting experiences, and suggests that we consider reframing how we think about our choices when seeking a corporate job vs working a low-skill hourly job, and what that means for us as we design and live out our lives of extraordinary artistic visionaries. It may require some counter-intuitive thought processes.
Have you ever thought about where songs come from? They come from visceral human experiences. Your experiences. These experiences that form the fodder for remarkable songs happen because you did something extraordinary and stretched yourself outside your comfort zone. In this moment, you saw the world a little different, and you had an epiphany. These epiphanies then form the seeds that ultimately become our creations.
Is devoting yourself to your path of becoming an artistic visionary worth making the sacrifices and taking risks, so that you can collect the necessary experiences?
