Creativity of the Day: Another Song and A New Dance

Posted in Brit's thoughts on Mar 07, 2008

So I wrote and recorded another song today. I am having my first voice lesson on Monday with a woman I found on craigslist. Here is the song and you can even BUY IT from this very widget right here:

It is a weird thing making these songs because when I hear them a few hours after I made them sometimes they sound to me like someone doing a parody–like something you’d see on SNL of someone who can’t sing. But it’s funny, I like them. I like listening to them pretty much as much as listening to Jack Johnson or The Beatles. Cuz it’s MY SONG. This goes right in line with what Terrence McKenna has to say about reclaiming your mind and creating your OWN culture. i.e. Listening to songs and videos you made with your friends has its own innate joy that you can not get from someone else’s creativity.

Anyway, enough of my high-falutin’ ideas. Here’s the first Dance of Reckless Abandon. 5 minutes of uncut Youtube madness:

    Hi! I'm Brit! I love God sans religion, breakdancing, design, motion graphics, adobe, men and women both, my mac book pro, g funk music, glitchy tweaky electro house, writing, making videos, elastic illusion, photography, vv, fractals, and google. Life is my art school. I believe that creativity is the point.

  • How I feel since I last changed this:

    I am learning about going it on my own. Taking control, taking charge. Claiming knowledge, claiming ability. Be willing to stand up and be counted and say yes, I know what I'm doing. Put me in the front row. With tears in my eyes and vulnerability in my heart.
