There was an energy, a freshness to it that I couldn't quite explain.
Years later, I stumbled across Malcolm Gladwell's famous "10,000-hour rule…
Last week I wrote about expertise and how it sometimes kills creativity. About being uninhibited as a beginner (or possible just naive) can lead to breakthrough creativity. But there's another side to this story.
The audience.
You and me.
The people consuming all this art, music, writing, and crea…
