John Cleese - “A Lecture on Creativity”

danforth:

John Cleese lectures on the topic of creativity.

Seriously: this wonderful video has had a huge impact on how I think about creativity. For years.

Unfortunately, the copy I’ve had and repeatedly enjoyed “fell off the back of a truck,” so I had no way to share it.

Now, (via danforth), I can finally share and highly recommend it.

And, I really, really do encourage you to watch. Really. All the way through. It’s just terrific.

If these guys weren’t awesome enough, they have their album available for free download.

I got pissed off that Canada is moving ahead of us in the vital field of Not Having Idiotic Pennies, which made me think about all the other economically irrational and inefficient things that result from the childish and divisive political discourse we have in the United States at the moment.

So I made this video.
