5. Practical advice: breakdown of two projects
- First, post something on SNS. If you do that something happens to you.
- Inspiration: what work have you seen that git? you excited?
- understanding why you are inspired is important
- Places/Events: ...
- People/Colaborators: you find them exciting. Who is the most similar to you, or most different?
- Material/Media: things you find interesting. Tools that you want to work with, Things that are cheap.
- Themes/Topics; something happening in the world, or locally. Something happening in your life, or in your relationship.
