What I learned from reading Creators: From Chaucer and Durer to Picasso and Disney by Paul Johnson.

单集文稿 ...

  • So I've made something that is exclusively for enthusiasts of founders, for people that completely understand the benefit of this intense studying of the great people and the great work that came before us, and how valuable that is to apply to whatever it is that we're working on.

  • If that is you, I recommend you sign up for the private founders AMA feed.

  • I have been making short episodes every week based on questions that I get from members.

  • If you become a member, you'll be able to ask me questions directly.

  • There is a private email address that you get access to that.

  • I read every single one of these emails myself.

  • I don't have an assistant look over them.

  • I read every single one myself.

  • The questions I get from these emails I turn into short AMA episodes so that allows other members to learn from questions of other members.

  • You can also add your name and a link to your website with your question so that other members can check out what you're working on.

  • That feature alone is worth the investment.

  • So far I've made 27 episodes.

  • I'm recording the next one tomorrow, and I plan on making several episodes every week.

  • If you consider yourself an enthusiast of Founders podcasts, highly recommend that you become a member.

  • You can join by using the link that's in the show, notes on your podcast player, or by going to founderspodcast.com dot the 20th century saw a transformation of our visual experiences comparable to the blossoming of the Renaissance.

  • In the 15th century, we saw many more things, and we saw them differently, both because they were different and because events and artists accustomed us to look with different eyes.

  • Much of this altered vision was due to technological change, especially the beginning of cinema, television, videos, digital cameras, and the rapidity with which all were made accessible to humanity everywhere.

  • But these visual revolutions were compounded by artists with the expression of what was going on in their own minds.

  • The interplay between the new technologies and the new individualism created an element of visual change.

  • New experiences for our eyes were the product both of relentless, impersonal forces marching humanity forward, and of powerful, creative individuals striving to wrest control of change in order to realize their personal ways of seeing things.
