The beautiful is always bizarre.
Charles Baudelaire
Your Year of Making It Weird on Purpose. This is the year you stop waiting for beauty to arrive and start building it from whatever is already on the table, and the things you construct turn out stranger and better than the plan suggested. Something you make in winter surprises you so much you have to sit down for a minute. By spring, the unexpected angle is your opening move, and the results keep outrunning your predictions in the most delightful direction. A collaboration with someone whose instincts run completely different from yours produces work that neither of you could have made alone, and you are the one who made it possible by deciding the bizarre version was worth trying. The year rewards that decision again and again. The version that makes you laugh first is the one worth following.
