aaaand we have another wonderful conversation from summer with Steve Chapman

All his art, content, Podcast, talks and wonderful things can be found at:

CAN SCORPIONS SMOKE?

https://www.canscorpionssmoke.com/innercriticonline/

We start with the question:

Why does Steve do the stuff he does?

he lost touch with his intrinsic side until around 35 years

He doesn't make stuff because of the fun because he cant not do them

Example: February Challenge

A Project is like a Flower.

Start and End of a project is just in our minds

everaything is always becoming

because of Dyslexia Steve sees himself as a very good improviser

Do you think it is possible to start an organization to give people like us a "Job"

The projections people put on art

self saboteurs

Education and Kids

4 philosphies as guidance :)

as soon you say 3 things in a talk people get out their pen and papers

1. be fascinated (not only interested!) swim in sharky waters

2. open windows in your world so people can SEE you working fascinated (Andy Matuschak) - interestred papers are interesting

3. learn to live without your means - it is not gonna happen

4. hang out with weirdos and outsiders - self taughts

The Book - It sounds like a lot of micro burning mans

weirdos meet and sparks mor inspiration and fascination

creative resilience talk

the community of outsiders

Popup Radio Station

the portsmouth symphonia - a Talk

Also sprach Zarathustra https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpJ6anurfuw

Inexpert conference

the Inexpert Conference a structure

steve coached the speaker

get as much into a place of not knowing on stage

https://www.canscorpionssmoke.com/inexpert/

Sound of Silence

the dyslexic monkey mind brought out

the podcast 2 minutes of recorded silence with special guests

100 episodes

The paradox of not knowing

you cannot get good at it because then you would be knowing

"You cant sepnd anytime in nature without being surrounded by death and decay."

Who trains our muscles of stopping or walking away

the quality of the compost

the more it gets a familiar discomfort...

existential philosophy

ernest becker denying death "humans fear impermancne and insignificance" - everything is an immortality project

Book - Rooted - Lyanda Lee Haupt

on a scale of 1 to 10 what is your fear of death

experiment in B2B:

find a team that is open to doing stuff differently - introduce a agenda item "2 minutes and contemplate in which order they would die"

philosophize THIS

Steves Childhood and school

writing stories

the tea group - 4 days for 10 hours with 16 people and 2 fascilitators

what are some signs of the discomfort

feeling like being musunderstood and no logic will help

Zen Monk - Psychotherapist

3 zen monk trades

- bare witness

- not knowing

- compassionate action

the obstacle becomes the path

Sharons Mom:

Raised with the concept of honorable witnessing

Imagine you are the finished article

be inspirable

and retain a childlike level of openness

not wanting to die is kind of Ego-based

The great pause and its opportunities

Imagine the world without humans for 60 seconds

calm the distrubed and disturbed the calms

pandemic was the invitaiotn to do ANYTHING

Keith Johnson -. dont try to be celver - your job is just to be obvious

creative adventures
