Charles Cording, artist and Chief Visionary Officer of Digitrax AI, shares his philosophy of creativity as a lifestyle of receptivity rather than a state to enter and exit. He describes his process as being an "antenna to the universe," remaining open to ideas and allowing them to flow naturally through him.
• Approaching creativity as receptive rather than forced, viewing oneself as a vessel for ideas
• Balancing human creativity with AI tools in a "centaur" approach that leverages the strengths of both
• Recognizing that good ideas lead to more good ideas, creating branching opportunities
• Understanding the challenge of completion and letting external factors sometimes determine when art is "finished"
• Evaluating life choices through "flow versus friction" to maximize creative energy
• Creating uninterrupted blocks of time for deep creative work
• Passing creative wisdom to the next generation earlier than we discovered it ourselves
• Remaining humble and open to the invisible world of energy that surrounds us
• Trusting intuition as a muscle that strengthens with use
