“There are gentle souls who would pronounce Lolita meaningless because it does no
t teach them anything. I am neither a reader nor a writer of didactic fiction…For me a work of fiction exists only insofar as it affords me what I shall bluntly call aesthetic bliss, that is a sense of being somehow, somewhere, connected with other states of being where art (curiosity, tenderness, kindness, ecstasy) is the norm.” — Vladimir Nabokov

"Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things. And the reason they were able to do that was that they’ve had more experiences or they have thought more about their experiences than other people. Unfortunately, that’s too rare a commodity. A lot of people in our industry haven’t had very diverse experiences. So they don’t have enough dots to connect, and they end up with very linear solutions without a broad perspective on the problem. The broader one’s understanding of the human experience, the better design we will have. "

275days:

I got the idea for this during work.. I was looking forward to a 3 day 12 hour shift, so i had definitly enough time to start a new piece. All in all i worked around 6-7 split over 3 days. Basically you could say i draw one bulb per day.I know that there is a bunch of bulb drawings around here, but i hope i was able to create something new, with my own style and with a own story:The idea behind it is, that each bulb stands for a live. To be exact, for one generations. You can see 3 bulbs, one is totally new, without a crack or anything, you could say it represents a child/a young person. Then the next one is already slightly damaged, you can see cracks and some parts are missing. This one symbolises an elder person, he/she already went trough some trouble and you can see scars. The last bulb is nearly totally destroyed. It represents an old person, maybe also a dead person. The thing is, that all 3 bulbs are connected in the middle, because they have something in common. All in all i wanted to show a son, a mother and a grandfather, connected trough genes or here, lines. I hope you get what i mean haha!

“Day 40+41”
I guess it was just a matter of time. Yesterday and today were/are the first days where i’m kind of stuck. I really tried but i just can’t come up with something good. At least i tried! 
To keep you up to date, i show you one of my older work.

I started with this drawing with the thought of showing how complex our brain is. It more and more developed during drawing, that i want to show not only the complexity, as well as the danger in it. Generally its all about the fact that you can not see what is inside someones head. If you walk around, no one can imagine what you think. Thats sometimes awesome, otherwise it seems to be a curse. Lately i was thinking a lot about the people in North Korea. It must be so depressing if you can hardly ever act as you want to. You can not show or do what you think. Its obvious that the thoughts which develop in our mind, can be extremely dangerous, that people are able to behave so stupid and dangerous.
