🎨 Rediscover Joy Through Creative Play: Your Muse Awaits ✨


Flare up like a flame
and make big shadows I can move in.

Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.
Just keep going. No feeling is final.
Don’t let yourself lose me.

— Rilke

Creative play is an antidote to troubling times. Staying connected to your Muse is staying connected to your Life Force.

I find the creative opportunities in AI as a way to play, experiment, and nurture my curiosity and thirst for learning.

This video is an example of how I play creatively. Perhaps you'll find it inspiring or informative.

FYI, it is a mash-up of two leading-edge generative AI video apps (HeyGen for the woman, Runway's Act-One for the guy with my voice). It's far from a polished, professional result.

More important is the way it reflects my inquiry into who and how I can best serve. I'd love to share the experiences of using the Creativity Sandbox framework with more people. The current Creativity Sandbox Community is enriching the lives of the participants and more people deserve to enjoy these benefits. How about you?

I hope this example inspires you to try something new, whether that's putting some clay in your hands, finally using that drawing app you've wanted to try on your iPad, or checking out one of the many kinds of AI, gardening, or whatever.

How is your creative life? I would love to hear. Really.

And if you have any questions about creativity, AI, video, marketing, or something else, please respond to this email. I'm here to help.

I founded the Creativity Sandbox Community to help people not die with their creative sparks still stuck inside. The proven-to-be-successful Creativity Sandbox Framework combines the creative chutzpah of pure play, the accountability & support that comes from participation in our community, and the power of putting in the reps by practicing a practice. I am also a passionate advocate for showing your face through using video in all forms and in leveraging the astounding power of AI as a creativity enhancer, always with the Human in the Loop.
