What is the arc of a creative life? How do you design who you are and who you become? What journey do you take? What motivates creative people? Where does creativity come from? Can we design the arc of our own lives?
In this video, Chris and Matthew have the opportunity to sit down with the legendary Debbie Millman, at the AIGA Design Conference 2019, in Pasadena, CA. They discuss things that keep Debbie up at night, common characteristics between creatives, and what it’s like to reach your peak.
Debbie Millman is a writer, designer, educator, artist, brand consultant and host of the podcast Design Matters.
Design Matters is one of the world’s very first podcasts. Broadcasting independently for over 13 years, the show is about how incredibly creative people design the arc of their lives.
