Working on the Red Block

 It's wonderful getting things done on the Red Block.

Hard to get things done, but you just have to take one thing at a time. When you're trying to get several things done, nothing gets done. But when you're focused on one thing, it's amazing what you can get done. This has been proven over the years with several projects.

But at the same time, when you're the only person getting things done, what options do you have?

It's insane, everything that needs to get done.

This morning, some online projects, and working on the Holly Weird Film Festival, along with Holly Weird on the Road. That's going to be a fun traveling project.

The weekly summer writing project gets done today (something that's done every Wednesday and Thursday this summer).

Cleanup, going through papers, the daily walk, and more. This daily routine in Milford is so much fun.

This month's book to read is the son of Gypsy Rose Lee's book. Reading a chapter a day. That's how several books have been read over these last few years.

So much to do. But living in a world of creativity, and being surrounded by it out in the middle of nowhere is a wonderful thing.

You're as old as you feel. And it's important to always be learning. Whenever you stop learning, that's when you get old.

So much to get done on the Red Block. But one project at a time.

A Day Full of Projects

 

It's been a busy day here on The Red Block! A day full of projects. Here's a short list:

Wrote the weekly summer short play today

Tinkered on the annual film festival

Did a little marketing for the brand new online theatre course

Worked on a little research for marketing with The Red Block. Lots goes on out here daily. Here's a handful of weekday projects:

The new local theatre company

Online store

Theatre online course for the public

Film Festival

There's just so much to get done out here. And it's hard to let the world know what's out here. It's important to create a world of creativity out here in the middle of nowhere, so you can help the world. Especially in these times. 

It's a wonderful thing to be living the change you want to see in the world.

Creativity on the Red Block

 

A lot's going on here at the Red Block!

Projects: a local theatre, film festival, and an online class. 

The online class about theatre is now available: https://www.udemy.com/course/6635027/ 

This is a block in the middle of nowhere that's all about creativity. In a week, there's going to be the 7th year for an alternative film festival in Los Angeles. With the online theatre class just created, it's going to take at least a year to start letting people know something online is available to learn about theatre. It's important for regular people to get an introduction to how theatre is a basic form of communication, and how it is used in everyday life.

Between teaching and having a film festival, it's amazing how linked together film and theatre are. Most people don't see the connection. They think a movie is a movie and a play is a play. Yes, they are, but they're more connected than most people think. How to get people to know about this? It's a lot of work. 

Camus got things right. Just think about philosophy and art. They're so connected.
