People underestimate how learning art changes your perception of reality, gray becomes shades of blue, you see gestures in people standing in the bus. Colors feel so much more vibrant outside. Makes everything more magical
i wouldn't have a music career if i didn't join discord 9 years ago 😭 discord enables internet ecosystems and communities that create. i hope this ph discord ban is only temporary. reddit can go tbh
@moonjelly0 i think creative excellence requires expanding the breadth of your repertoire. seeking new styles and genres forces you to create from a novice-level but it gives you new perspective and potential for your next idea
art, artists, and artistry will always persist. every threat to creativity has only made it stronger. lofi hiphop was the first frontier that battled with capitalistic homogenization and then generative ai. my peers and i are living proof that self-expression cannot be replaced
turns out, reading a lot, exercising, loving people without expecting anything back, protecting your alone time, focusing only on improving yourself, and sometimes staying out late with friends who make you laugh until it hurts is a pretty good way to live.
