Parents routinely fall into the trap of bragging about their kids, but would you deny this kid has a certain genius?

The creative team: a comb instead of a T?

This is a response to Edward’s latest post about the many specialists who make up the new creative team. Give it a read. In the post, he uses the famous T graphic, which puts a leader on top of a stack of specialists:

A good graphic in its day, I’d rather see it as a comb, where there is no implied hierarchy other than that between the leader and the specialists (or, said another way, between accountability and influence):

Also note the connection, or the open channel, between the many specialists and the leader. In todays creative space, an idea can come from anyone. In my experience, the one with the idea is often the best person to champion it through to the end. Any of these people can be that champion.
It just depends on the project, concept, opportunity, or challenge.

Reflections on Silverton

 

Looking down the gut from the traverse 
at your friend who just pushed off
you can see the color in his jacket
until he moves his weight
for his first turn and then disappears
into a burst of white smoke— 
reappearing as he transitions
through his swirling wake
and disappears again.

On top of a chute into The Colorado

Close to bottomless from here. It was puking (note the vis).
