But next to trees, his embrace of the Singularity is one of the most driving factors behind his music! What else could explain our assimilation into drones programmed to follow every aspect of his work and life? Reading Thor's posts never gave you reason to ask some questions?

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 The fact that like a quarter of JWFan it seems makes such a huge deal about when a female member is here, one way or the other, might give some weird vibes too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLUMENKOHL 1,068 Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 I can’t believe I didn’t think to rant about this in my original post. Philosophical point that emerges from this pencil: I’ve debated endlessly with the likes of @Marcus and other composers on this forum about the writing process. There is an incessant rumor or perhaps wishful thinking propagated by movies like Amadeus that great composers see all the notes in their head, sit down and write it down and produce a masterpiece. Whereas I can tell you the main reason you’d actually use these pencils that John Williams uses is to take advantage of the massive twistable and replaceable erasers that take up the top half of the pencil. That’s exactly why I prefer them to fancier and nicer pencils: I erase a lot and these are great for that. Now why would a composer who sees his perfect masterpiece in his head need a pencil with a giant eraser? The answer of course is that 90% of a creative endeavor is in editing, exploring, and maturing your original ideas. Marcus and Bayesian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's something I think about and experience a lot, and many scholars would agree with this point, defining genius as the ability to continually refine and sharpen initial ideas--which oftentimes are mediocre and awkward--into a honed piece of work, like a sword being forged from iron.
