creative constipation is a real thing. it’s not creative block, in a way it’s kind of worse. you know *exactly* what you want to make in a beautiful full color crystal clear vision in your mind. but there’s so much of it and so much depth that you struggle to make it real. like trying to build a sky scraper starting at the spire. there’s invisible undocumented laws of physics holding your creative poo in
what are some creative laxatives that have worked for you? what strategies and medicines have losened your muse sphinxter or softened your creative flow? maybe time has helped? or a journaling discipline?
have you documented the blocks and the domain specific sokutions you found to say; realise you should start at the foundation?
@zens Coffee works for all kinds of constipation😂 I've used sleep deprivation to change the way I think about a problem. Got some rest and checked out some code that I wrote that solved the problem a couple days later. Working, twisted spaghetti code; it took me an afternoon to figure out what was going on, comment, and clean up, but it worked.
