In today’s “creative economy” the power of storytelling is critical. In particular, in your marketing efforts. Here’s an example of how Chipotle is bringing music, animation, and an important cause together to tell a powerful story in 2 minutes. Remarkable.

People with passion for their craft always inspire me. One such person is Danny Macaskill. I’m in awe of his creative energy and wizardry with a bicycle. His latest installment, Industrial Revolutions, is without question remarkable.

I’ve always been obsessed with photography. And am in the process of buying a new camera to accompany me in my journeys. While Flickr is a very common photo sharing service, it is the 800 pound gorilla of photography websites which isn’t always the best. Thankfully, there is a wonderful alternative for photographers and enthusiasts to showcase their work. Additionally, the discovery and voting system makes exploring the pictures fun and exciting. So whether you’re looking to post your pics or view other gorgeous photos, this is the place.

I recently stumbled upon a remarkable Tumblr blog called Dear Photograph. It’s simple…take a picture of a picture from the past in the present. Simple, yet brilliant. The stories, memories, and emotions that spill over when people share their photographs are powerful and captivating. Simply remarkable!

This week I stumbled upon a fascinating video series called, “Everything Is A Remix.” It’s a four-part (only three parts are online now) video series produced by Kirby Ferguson, A New York-based filmmaker. Kirby basically breaks down the elements of music, movies, and creativity that are used in all “new” innovations. Quickly you’ll discover that no idea is ever truly original. It’s all a remix. Remarkable!

Lately I’ve been more vocal about my disdain for the common industrial-age mindset when it comes to education. The typical ways to learn have become outdated. We must be able to find better ways to continually improve our skill sets. So when I was sent this link to Uncollege from a friend on Twitter, I immediately became intrigued. And it looks like Dale J. Stephens is on to something.
