I wrote a new dialogue with The Bowls almost a week ago, Saturday morning, April 12. But I got scared about posting it online and held back. I notice that I've felt a corresponding holding back in the studio. It seems as if the Wolfgang Luthe, author of the Creativity Mobilization Technique, was right when he said that censoring any creative impulse has an overall inhibiting effect on all other creative impulses.

This seems a bit tricky because of course it's impossible to take full action on ALL my creative impulses. I'd have to be a hundred people with one brain. I guess the trick is to learn to distinguish between choosing a focus ("I'll do this idea now") and censoring an idea ("bad bad don't do it ever.") The feeling is certainly different so it could be very easy to tell if I just pay attention.
