a self indulgent blog about improvisation
im interested in the combination of improvisation and art, whether it be film, theatre, music - whatever. I spent three years performing improvised theatre, and what interests me is collaboration, and the creation, which tends to come from deep within the sub-conscious, a place that often gets drowned out by logic and careful planning.
i just found an article on idealog which draws a parallel between improv and business, it's rather interesting, and a tad cheesy. but i really like this advice:
"Take your ego out of your ideas. We say one plus one is three. Your idea and life experience and expertise with my ideas, life experience and imagination create a third person—a thing we'd never create by ourselves."
