Inside the Creative Process; Inspiration from Artists, Writers, Performers, Designers, & More

The Shared Language of Creative Process w/ Animator, Filmmaker, and Media Designer Tara Knight

Tara Knight is an animator, filmmaker, media designer for live performance, and associate professor at the University of Colorado, Boulder who works in a multiplicity of ways and with a multiplicity of genres. If a project terrifies her, she knows she's on the right track. In this episode, Tara shares with us a process cycle that can be applied by artists, engineers, astronomers, and really anyone who is creating something. This cycle can help us find where we are getting stuck in our own process and provides us with a shared language with others who "do what we do" but in a different field.

Everyday Artistry w/ Movement and Theatre Artist Tsuyuno Amos

Tsuyuno Amos is a Hawai‘i-based performer whose background is in acting, dance, and theatre. She studied dance at Bennington College before moving home to O‘ahu, where she was born and raised. She continues to explore various creative practices, dabbling in butoh and clowning while also deeply studying astrology and tarot. She now offers one-on-one dream work sessions to hold space for creativity to enliven through engaging with imaginary figures.

In our conversation, Tsuyuno shares how she brings creativity into her daily life by experiencing the world around her with an artist’s lens. Her love for the found performance and everyday art invites the rest of us see ourselves as participants in an ongoing creative process.

Art and Aliveness w/ Intuitive Artist and Electrical Engineer Kelly Heaton

Kelly Heaton is a cross-disciplinary artist, engineer, and visionary who works with electricity. She is fascinated by what makes things alive and conscious. Her art is hard to categorize because it vibrates conceptually and often literally, too. Heaton uses oscillating electronics to explore the building blocks of machine intelligence and to create circuits with life-like behaviors. Her artistic circuits are conduits for her core message that we are electrical beings connected in a universal system. Humans can be electrifying, illuminating, and magnetic, or we can abuse our power and short-circuit. Heaton wants to blow your mind in a positive way—as a friendly invitation to mutual growth and heartfelt expansion.

In our conversation, Kelly shares with us the struggles that come with creating a new and unknown artistic genre. She shares her love for nature, electricity, and the aliveness of circuits, inspiring us to see that we too are circuits and part of a greater circuit. This episode will expand your understanding of your relationship with electricity and consciousness, as she helps us remember that "art is the life"
