In this episode of the Polytechnicast I share a full-spirited report of my adventure going to the magical arcade of Pinball Pete’s in Ann Arbor Michigan. No wait! I mean: Kids Read Comics 2012! Lots of reflection on a great weekend celebration of comics with a bit of exploring how my workshop Underwater Tomato Ninja - HTML5 Game Development went as well.

Even though this episode clocks-in at 1 hour 5 minutes I didn’t directly shout out to all the great artists I met or had a chance to see again at KRC 2012. This list is an attempt at covering both the artists mentioned and the artists I wanted to mention and I hope I got everyone. If I missed you - please ping me via email, twitter, or comment!

LIA Cast 43 - Roadblocks to Sharing

If you've ever started a post on your blog, Twitter, Facebook, or Tumblr, and deleted it instead of hitting the "send" button, this one is for you.

Hot on the heels of our discussion on the value of iterating on ideas, we walk around the topics of self-editing, overpolishing an idea or project, and other roadblocks to publishing your work. Where is the line between refinining to perfection and the infinite cycle of self-editing? It's a talk on quantity vs. quality in the Lean Into Art style of topic exploration.

LIA Cast 42 - Iterations Breed Creativity

Don't Stick With Your First Idea.

Is this always true? Does the best idea always happen in the second, third, or fourth iteration of your project? Or does iterating on our projects yield other learning opportunities? It's a fun talk about the secrets unlocked through iterating on our character designs, story outlines, and other creative projects.
