DrillmanSop06 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Constraint = limitation, not freedom. Exactly. And from those limitations comes innovation. The creative process often works best in opposition to SOMETHING. It gives the structure needed to do creative work. Picasso is not creative because his art is abstract but because that abstraction works in opposition to the contraints of the medium. Poor example, probably. But structure produces creative work in many cases because of that subversion of structure or the opposition to structure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jthomas666 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 With all the Vampirific shows this year it got me thinking.Wouldn't it be interesting if for one year DCI picked a word like Vampires or something and all corps had to build a show around that word. It would be interesting to see how diverse the offerings would be from corps to corps. just a thought Similarly, I've always wanted Iron Chef to have Spam as the secret ingredient.

BRASSO Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 (edited) Wouldn't it be interesting if for one year DCI picked a word like Vampires or something and all corps had to build a show around that word. I 'd rather see Corps all do a show on " umpires ", rather than " vampires ". I 'd like to see how the DCI judges would call'em.
