Be Revolutionary

 

 

Stewart Copeland, the drummer from The Police, talks about creativity, being revolutionary, conflict and the artist's vision. This is a must-watch for all creatives. I've watched this three times and pulled something new each time. Pay special attention to Copeland's thesis of being revolutionary. I truly believe that's how we differentiate ourselves, a willingness to take chances, to disregard what's safe in favor of what's unique. I also enjoyed his ideas on what it's like to be the "beans in the can", on display for all to see while depending on yourself to create your path. Superb viewing. Enjoy!

Also, Copeland's book is called STRANGE THINGS HAPPEN: A Life With The Police, Polo and Pygmies. Check it out.
