Out Ya Heid

How To Make Something?

You need some materials of course. Nothing gets made out of thin air…although probably don’t ask a Quantum Scientist about that.

But if what you makes comes out of the imagination where do you start? I suppose you have to imagine something. And there you’re relying on your conscious, unconscious, sub-conscious, unconscious (?) mind to come up with that thing.

It could be anything really. You can’t guarantee what is going to arise in there can you? For me at least, what I’m going to think next is a flipping mystery. Which is exciting when you, um, think about it.

But once it has arisen, whatever it might be, you’ve got to let it out. Or put it out. Squeeze it out? It might be that it needs to develop a little bit more in your brain before you do that. But once it’s “material” it definitely needs to be allowed out at some point. IF we’re going to make something.

That’s the first brave step we need to take - but almost certainly not the last) - get that material Out Ya Heid, and onto …. well, anything that comes to hand really.

And now we’re on our way.
