“Creativity is closer to magic than it is science” - I’ve come back to @rickrubin’s The Creative Act a few times now. It’s so rare to have the thought processes, feelings and emotions of creativity put down on paper in such a refined way. Highly recommend picking up a copy of his book, and listening to his podcast with @hubermanlab

Selenophile (n.) a person that loves the moon. I’ve been going through a moon phase these past few months, obsessed with capturing it. It’s pretty wild when you stop to think that the moon has the power to move entire oceans. That type of energy fascinates me, I lay there with friends that evening, staring up at it for hours.

I love the fast changing conditions of the interior mountains in British Columbia in the summer months. These were all taken within a thirty minute window and multiple rain storms. It’s so easy to give up when the weather doesn’t seem to work out but sometimes waiting for a storm to pass can pay off (and other times not).

Creatives! What is one thing you do to stay creative that doesn't involve your main passion?

There are rumours that we might see some Aurora this weekend with “Moderate” activity predicted! There’s only a short window of darkness this time of year but they should be visible from Vancouver. This one was captured at -50 Celsius in the NWT 🥶 it’ll be 70 degrees warmer than that this weekend.

One of the things I’m most excited about is a fresh start at following people who inspire me to grow and be a better human; mentally, physically and creatively. Remember to choose who you follow wisely because they play a part in shaping your future self.

Really hoping this will be a place for less curation, more meaningful connections and deeper discussions. I think we’ve all felt a gap in the platforms. Promising so far!

It’s refreshing to have a new platform to play around on, especially with how stagnant other ones have become lately. Thoughts on Threads so far?
