I certainly don’t say this lightly.

Disruptive Wonder for a Change by Kelli Anderson

Log / Transition by Keenan Cummings.
I am was an agency-trained, senior-level, print/branding designer & I want to left to work at a start up. Here’s why:
1) I want my work to feel valuable.
2) I want to stop talking about good work and start making good work.
3) I want other people to find value in my work.
4) I want my mom to understand what I spend my time doing.
5) I want to design with empathy, and that means being close to the ground.
6) I want my stamp on the things I make.

The Three Rs of Modern Creativity by Iain Tait
I’ve been thinking about what it takes to be a good creative in a modern agency. And it just so happened that 3 things that kept resurfacing began with an R. So here are my Three Rs for creatives:
1 – Resilience – Don’t give up!
2 – Restraint – Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.
3 – Respect – You can’t do this stuff on your own.

This Is Generation Flux: Meet The Pioneers Of The New (And Chaotic) Frontier Of Business by Robert Safian
Any business that ignores these transformations does so at its own peril. <- Said that back in ’95 about the www.
There is one certainty, however. The next decade or two will be defined more by fluidity than by any new, settled paradigm; if there is a pattern to all this, it is that there is no pattern.
The most valuable insight is that we are, in a critical sense, in a time of chaos. <- gotta love this one – our band name is After Chaos.
Because some people will thrive. They are the members of Generation Flux <- oh finally belonging somewhere – I’m a GenFluxer.
