‘Experiri: to try, test’

Experiri is a collection of articles about creative process and what it is to live a creative life. Or to try to.

Some of these articles are reworkings of my most popular blogs, some are original, but all deal with themes to do with ideation, resilience, learning, and agency through the lens of making creative work. Of trying and testing.

“I am fascinated by practice, and the processes that people follow when they attempt creative work. I am particularly interested in the interplay between conditions imposed by the material world and how this affects our self-confidence, sense of potential, agency, and resilience, and how this in turn affects our relationships to our creative selves and activity. It goes back the other way too: the ways in which we identify as being creative, and how we manifest this in our creative process, feeds back into our sense of being resilient, of having agency, of being capable of learning and adapting within the material world.”
