Good afternoon from Chennai, India!
Dont use audio 🎙
In the last week I wrote just one essay. It was on audio as a platform for content creation. Having explored clubhouse and twitter spaces for a while now, I collected my thoughts on how live audio is helping build trust and make new connections.
The essay employs the inversion technique to put across the point. It could have been a lot better but I published it as it was anyway in order to move on to the next challenge.
Why create content?
This is the next challenge. There is no objective answer. However, I am working on a subjective answer for my context by mapping out thoughts that surround this question, rearranging them to identify a flow and hopefully creating a clearer picture.
Part 1: mapping motivation
Part 2: exploring inspiration
Part 3: discovering mechanics
This is where I’ve reached so far. There’s more to come1. The meta-context for the making of this concept map is below:
Motivation: to find my content creation North Star
Inspiration: countless other content creators refining their purpose as we speak
Mechanics: TBD, this should be the outcome of all the thinking and mapping2
A Chat with Visakan Veerasamy 💬
It was a delight to be in conversation with @visakanv on a twitter spaces chat last night. I invited him to have a discussion on content creation and overcoming fear to publish.
Here are a couple of takeaways:
📄 read about the history of pamphleteers
✍🏼 write so much that you fail to recognise your own work
Thank you to everyone who joined in!
updates will be shared on this thread:
Very thoughtful stuff here.
Especially the mind map of your space show with Visa sums up everything clearly
Learned a lot here.
