If there’s one thing I really believe, it’s that you are what you consume.
One of the most under-appreciated responsibilities of any creative life is to fill your eyes and ears with great stuff. Here are my are the documentaries and podcasts I turn to when I want to fill my brain with good ideas, and see the world from a different perspective.
Documentaries
I’ve divided my favorite documentaries here into docs about design and the creative process, and docs about makers & creators & weirdos throughout history. Each one of these has sparked fresh thoughts for me and given me a jolt when I needed it.
DOCS ABOUT DESIGN
DOCS ABOUT ART MOVEMENTS + ARTISTS
Podcasts
These are my favorite podcasts for creatives, entrepreneurs, artists, makers, designers, and people who just want fresh creative thoughts. I pop on an episode of one of these when I need to get out of a creative rut, or just think about something outside of my own work. I hope you find a new favorite here.
