LIA Cast 40 - The Game

At long last Rob is ready to launch his new workshop, Underwater Tomato Ninja at this year's Kids Read Comics and later here at Lean Into Art. Both of us are understandably excited about this, so we spend the majority of this week's episode talking about storytelling in games and "gamification."

We also spend a little bit of time talking about PWWTIWYS, or People What Want to Interact with Your Stuff.

LIA Cast 39 - Practicing Practice

This week we find ourselves thinking a lot about practice. How do we incorporate practice into our busy lives, and how do we identify when shipping on project with related disciplines contributes to practicing? How are all kinds of practice the same, similar, or different?

LIA Cast 38 - Building off of Failure

It's another abstract discussion on keeping our minds focused on the intangibles, the joy of being an eternal learner, and recognizing our failures as signs pointing us in the direction we ultimately need to go.

LIA Cast 37 - Chipping and Adapting

 

Having found ourselves in a situation where our professional and personal pursuits are colliding, we spend some time this week talking about the importance of adapting to situations, or keeping loose knees on the deck of the boat. While we explore how prioritizing, avoiding the comparison game, chipping away at projects, and learning to delegate (when possible) can help one adjust to the constant pressures of a creative lifestyle, we face the inescapable conclusion that the terror never ends. But maybe we can adapt to it.

You can feel bad or inspired by this.

Oh, and some fun talk about our old D&D characters!
