A month or so ago the talented artist & High School teacher @houlart asked me if I’d be interested in contributing to his exploration of the concept of Creativity with one of his classes, using any medium I’d like. I was humbled & more than willing to help.
After thinking about what I could possibly offer towards the discussion of Creativity & what it means to me, I decided on impulse to record myself talking on a voice note on my iPhone in my backyard at 1:38 AM on Sunday June 25, 2023. One take, first try, off the cuff—so please excuse the scrambled thought process and intermittent pauses.
Thinking I could put more effort into it than a drunk rant, I decided to supplement it with VX footage filmed during winter 2020/2021, featuring skateboarding by Dominic Randazzo, Steven Salazar, Brad Niske, Nick Zizzo, and yours truly. I also added artwork & photographs created by Jacob Taylor, Steven Salazar, Noah Wasem, Alex Hancek, Dylan Hill, Adam Zanzucchi, and myself. It’s kind of corny but it’s honest and sweet.
