In thinking about the way that I work I have begun to see, what I think, is a good pattern. I spend time in the studio thinking and developing projects, not so much making them, but planning them out. I like to get three or four on the drawing board, so I can bounce between them, but also so if one does not work out, I have other things to do. Have a pile of planed out projects is like a roadmap, it lets me know that I always have things to do....I can't just go into the studio and stare at the wall, I have work to do.
After getting a plan, I then go into production. Of course during this period much of the project is fleshed out and developed, but I the foundation is there. It is exciting, but difficult. I enjoy the freedom of thinking about stuff, but when you actually have to start writing the code, spending the money, building the widget, it can get a bit daunting. I still throughly enjoy it, but I have to start taking responsibility for my plans.
In reality it is not that structured, but I noticed while I was in Connecticut at I-Park I spent a lot of time sketching out projects and not building them. That was partly due to having limted resources, financial, material, and otherwise, but more so due to having a lot of uninterrupted time. Long, slow thoughts were able to develop and and idea could build over several days or weeks without "real life" events getting in the way.
I am in a planning stage right now, I have been looking at my recent projects and where there are going trying to see the next stage.
I will talk about that in the next post.
