Miika Kuisma has written his best blog post so far. A long mind flow “About creativity and being an artist” is well worth 7-10min which it’ll take to read through.
The setup “creativity vs money” which Miika introduces is very very valid in the world of event managers and promoters, too. Even though organizing events can’t be categorized as “art” too often, the same series of actions appear there as well: if you organize events in order to make your living and/or to get rich, you’ll end up losing the touch to your audience and waste the real fun in it.
If you rank income above creativity or fame above art, take a while and read the post.
