“But the internet is like a tree that is growing. The people will always have the last word – even if someone has a very weak, quiet voice. Such power will collapse because of a whisper.

[…] The internet is uncontrollable. And if the internet is uncontrollable, freedom will win. It’s as simple as that.”

- Ai Wei Wei on how the internet and those on it will overcome Chinese censorship.

Watching a kid make something with his hands & imagination, and seeing his face light up when others buy in - 10 minutes of magic. 

A chance encounter with 9-year-old Caine Monroy and his meticulously crafted cardboard arcade inspired filmmaker Nirvan Mullick — his first and only “customer” — to start a Facebook page, invite all of L.A., and make Caine’s day.”

Truth, well put.

“Tom Robbins says you can’t manufacture creativity or wonderment, but you can pull yourself out of context so dramatically that you gawk in amazement at the ubiquitous everyday wonders you’re culturally conditioned to ignore. I think this is key: To get new ideas we need to see the world with new eyes–we need to evoke a novel way of seeing things. For me that involves throwing myself into new situations. Some of the thinkers I respect the most have credited travel, walks in the park, and marijuana as creativity catalysts. Really, it’s anything that triggers free association and the right conceptual collision. We need disruption of the profane so that we can engage with the sacred and creative.”

“As storytelling evolves, those who cling on to what’s comfortable and cling to history, and force their audiences to consume stories in ways that are outdated - they will always fail. And they will be replaced with something else.”

- Elan Lee in his 2010 TEDxSeattle talk on “The Evolution of Storytelling.”

A little old, but worth a watch.
