Exploring Creativity

Anna Irene Lewis is a contemporary artist who has found a calling challenging her realistic art style by painting some of the most amorphous scenes possible: nebulous clouds. The depth and spectrum of lights and colors that she is able to incorporate into her pieces is mesmerizing. We have ben trying for months to get her on the show so I am psyched we could finally connect. In this conversation we explore how she came upon this unique art style, her experience with vipassana meditation, and we dabble in the importance and interpretation of our dreams. So many good nuggets in here. You guys are going to love it.

Where does sales training and a passion for personal development intersect? According to Braxton its in the willingness to start your own cult.... that is, to start a cultural movement, and decide today to take control of your own life and create the life of your dreams.  Braxton's story and passion for what he does is palpable.

Continuing from the stellar conversation from last episode, Emanuel and I dive right back into the future form of immersive video games, the result of the recent presidential election, and the impact of violent media on our collective consciousness. Emanuel's passion for developing immersive media experiences comes from a unique understanding of the importance of shared experience to facilitate bonding. Even the impact of watching a movie or a play together can generate a shared experience that allows us to come together through a common understanding. The effect of this cannot be understated. This is why some of the classic books are still read in schools today. This is another epic one for the books.

I pride myself on having an open mind, especially when it comes to other peoples experiences. But what about when you try to comprehend the experience of a completely different being, like a dog or a bird, or even a computer? Emanuel Wazar is a 3D designer and VR film maker who has taken these thoughts right up to their bitter end. It was an absolute pleasure picking his brain about topics like the difference between simulation and reality, the connection between life and pain, the Fermi paradox, modern myths, and so much more. I had such a tough time pulling myself away from this conversation that we decided to do a part two. So if you like what you hear here, then please stay tuned for more.
