Well Jim Morrison just quoting Huxley though? As for me I know many things and have many ideas what I don't have that I used to is any desire to create.
I've been working with art for decades now and this is my advice to creative people who are just starting out: if you wish to learn from a genius like this, don't just imitate his style, the dwarves and the red rooms. You can open yourself to your subconsciousness, too, just like he's saying. Above all you learn from yourself, but when you learn from him, if you're called John Smith, you'll be making Smithian art, not Lynchian art. Listen to your own voice!
I disagree. I believe the Romans' idea still works today, first imitatio, then aemulatio. You take inspiration until you can combine those and create a unique work of art.
@@writingwofl5836 Look, I'm not saying don't ever take influences from anybody. That's going to happen subconsciously anyway. As Willliam Burroughs put it: "Look, listen and transcribe, and forget about being original." It's just that there are so many artists that seem to think that following some kind of a formula is going to get them into the heart of it. I would much rather hallucinate like an automaton, breaking every rule should they not suit me. Following the muse, if we wanna go back to Greco-Roman ideas. Imitations are going to come out of it, sure. We're pattern-noticing species anyway. It's only the conscious drive some people have of doing everything like their idol that worries me.
I'm always eager to hear an artist's response to, "Where do your ideas come from?", but there's never a real answer. Nobody really knows. They just come. The only thing to do is train yourself to watch for them while you noodle around.
This is so wonderfully accurate to what the creative process is really like. Especially the analogy of ideas coming in fragments, and the rest is in a room somewhere, complete. So true.
But isn't it beautiful to know that you'll never be in that room? What you find altogether still doesn't always make alot of sense but it is just enough to make any.
@@pinnip4974 but that's what keeps you working and moving forward. That puzzle is always expanding the more pieces you get, then you look up and you have a lifetime of work
I love this interview because the interviewer understands. I hate it when the interviewer doesn't understand the person he is interviewing. The amount of times someone has asked Lynch a question and he gave a poetic answer and the interview didn't know wtf it meant is is unbelievable. Professional interviewer's should always research who they are interviewing
David Lynch is the one director or creator to be more exact that really opened my mind to how I develop ideas now. I try to think way deeper and find the right ideas for any creative project I do. Big inspiration and one of my fave directors of all time.
That's honestly one of the best descriptions of the creative process I've ever heard. I once heard somewhere that creativity isn't so much as something you can conjure up when you need to, but more something that's loose and floating around the world, and you just need to get yourself into the state where you can catch it.
Tonight I lost my notebook. One minute later I went back and the street cleaners had already done sweeping the spot where I think I accidentally dropped it. So yeah, I hope you're right.
It's very grating how many trite interviewers ask David Lynch to explain where his ideas come from (and what they mean). It does the poor bastard a disservice, and forces him to give equally hackneyed answers. I suppose it's nice that they appreciate his work enough to express their curiosity, but literally nobody can explain where their ideas on anything come from. Ideas suddenly pop into our head randomly, and things basically develop from there. Ideas are "aha!" moments; they come to us suddenly, without explanation - and that's what makes them so magical. They are a way for our intuition (another "thing" that can't be explained in any pat or logical way) to express itself. And therein lies the beauty. You only need a basic grasp of what's happening in a Lynch film to enjoy/appreciate it. Not every little bloody thing needs to be decoded and explained, or it starts to detract from the proceedings. There's a beautiful inarticulacy to his work, which is what makes it so haunting and powerful in the first place. I'm truly grateful we're all being gifted with another season of Twin Peaks, and I hope to God he somehow scrapes together the funds to make another film! That would be miraculous.
It's a disease in the art world really but too many people take themselves seriously so they pretend they KNOW where they come from. It only serves for art to become demystified and ultimately it becomes a commodity.
I watched mulholland drive for the first time 10 years ago and rewatched it again yesterday. I appreciate it in a completely new and profound way - that’s the magic of David Lynch’s films
There have been 2 recent phases in my life, one of them, I acted on my ideas, and the other, I didn't. It doesn't take much to guess which stage was amazing and which one was stagnant and aimless.
I akin so much to how he articulates what creativity is. I'm in no way comparing myself to him, I just mean that I "get" what he means when he talks about these things. The mind of an artist is perhaps banally enigmatic, but it's true. There are things we see in our mind's eye which we bring to life.
#davidlynch @davidlynch You did 52 videos and compiled it. You inspire me so much. So, I'm doing 365 videos and compiling them too. You are but a mere fish that I caught one day. You seemed special so I put you in a pool, and bred you. You kept giving me so many fish, that I had no idea what to do with them all; but I went back to the stream one day. I remembered how I used to fish, and suddenly, all my ideas began to make sense. All of the fish I had caught made sense. I could place this fish with that fish, let these fish mingle over there, do a little of that, and I could just let the ideas work for themselves. All I had to do was let them flow, watch, and take it in. Every fish is an idea. Every fish can be part of a bigger better school
With most movies, people are given a clear path to follow from start to finish. With Lynch’s movies, it feels like somewhere along the way the path suddenly stops, and the audience are forced to find their own way from there on.
Film Production is created in 5 phases: development, pre-production, production, post-production, and distribution. Each phase has a different purpose, with the overarching goal to get to the next one, and ultimately on to distribution. Each stage varies in length, and different roles suit different stages...
Once you found the answer to the following question: How did man think before there were words? Then you'll get ideas, so many and so big - that a fraction of a second will be enough to fill many books.
god youtube comment section is an amazing place to go if you're in search of pseudo-profundity. If you think for just a couple of minutes you'll make the realization on your own that ideas are much more raw than the words we use to communicate them. If you are a person of ideas than this is elementary even if it's not an express thought you've had before. So? Where are all my grand ideas to change the path of mankind now?
hahahahah you're great. But you are making my point for me, you are doubting the abilities that you said I'd have if I answered your question. Well, I did. So what now? P.S. Life is not a sandbox game that you can just turn godmode on. You are toting your "civilization model" by trying to sound intelligent in a youtube comment section. If you have half the ideas you claim to have, try being productive instead of being a pretentious know-it-all. It might be best to start simple and move out your moms basement first, then you can implement your "civilization model" lmao
***** You sound pretty ignorant and arrogant - usually a bad combination. How did you get your idea about a new civilization? Did it come to you by working on it or just out of nowhere? And what is model, how does it work?

I like the song of David's called I'll,, logical way of thinking a movie or short thing about how on earth did that one come about,,,I want a press conference symposium thing all the details of the song interview homework for Marissa or Amy Fisher 🤣👍🛩️😃🎶 David's the cool character under certain meet of requirements he'd let Amy interview.
Is the full video of this available online anywhere? This is the first one of these types of interviews with Lynch that actually looks like someone is having a conversation with him, rather than reading pre-prepared questions & not engaging with what he's saying
I went to high school with Paul Holdengraber and when it came time to dribble a basketball he started asking all these lame philosophical questions about the pain and confusion that the ball symbolized and coach just told him to shut up and run 50 laps around the gym. I think he collapsed somewhere in the neighborhood of lap 15 - 17 and, later that week, he brought a note co-signed by his mother & doctor saying he was to be exempt from physical exertion. Not really though I think he's a little older than me.
Some people's ideas come from their imagination other people get their ideas from bearing witness to reality and it just depends how horrifying or surreal their reality actually is.
The interviewer is as good as Adam Eget.
Next time he visits that bridge, he should ask for interviewing tips on top of the regular.
I wonder where Adam Eget gets his ideas from.
That's exactly what I thought.
"From Ralph's!"
Maybe the interviewer masturbate less, he wouldn’t ask another that how idea comes up from head
David Lynch is clearly the right guy to ask that question though. Super Dave? not so much.
"It's a beautiful thing to think about."
"The think about it a bit."
"No, you think about it."
very lynchian
I wonder what was the interviewer even trying to ask?
@@stevengregory3991 he said: then think about it a bit
@@stevengregory3991 The interviewer sucks to be honest
Gold 😂😂
0:11 Lynch's face when he knows that the audience or the interviewer's minds are completey thrown off to any statement that David makes
he's got a better hairstyle than most of the young famous boys today.

You said it all
Lynch just copied others himself. The stuff he did was already done by dark romanticists 200 years ago. He just americanized it.

He has got nice hair also…
I love that cheeky grin at the start... he knows people want more than the simple truth and he loves it.

Is Adam Egret doing the interview?
He was chomping at the bit to ask that one
@Henk de Tank like the bird
I fucking new the top comment would be an Adam Egret reference!
We'll be back with the ever funny- Adam Eget
No, if I’m not mistaken, this interview was conducted during his Queensboro Bridge phase.
David Lynch is such a cool dude. Great filmmaker!
That puzzle is always expanding the more pieces you get, then you look up and you have a lifetime of work
Crendor's impression really is spot-on
The first line sums it up perfectly, I've written so many stories that started out as a scene that seemed to organically unfold in my mind.
Seriously, great hair. Something to aspire to at that age. Lookin' sharp Dave!
"I'm worried abut Coop!!!"
Thats my favourite quote.
I may not like all his work, but he seems to be the most passionate human being and seeing it is very inspiring
I love David Lynch.

this guy is so brilliant... "Its comes like a tv in your mind" because both TV and the conscience are proyective media :´)
Thanks for posting this!
I wish Adam Eget would ask Lynch this question.
my ideas come from my guardian angel, who constantly gives me information for creativity, and I thank him as much as I can.
Never a dull moment
That's right. But for good ideas need isolation. Lot of information will kill ideas. Ideas comes when mind is clear.
Agreed
that's why he meditates probably

I think this very string of thought might be right now contributing to a "puzzle piece" of mine. Well, thanks Mr. Lynch.
His daughter is also a director she just directed the last episode of the walking dead
What's his daughter's Name?
Thanks Jack :)
What a trip!
As Norm McDonald has said "Where do you get your ideas from?"
Yes, like on a tv in your mind! The same thing happens to me. TV looks like one from the 50's. Mind blow
Can't wait for Twin Peaks next year!
Your mind most be still Without any thought You start to discover things.
David Lynch in conversation with Adam Eget
He is like a sphere emanating light
I’ve always wondered... where do you get your ideas?
With most movies, people are given a clear path to follow from start to finish. With Lynch’s movies, it feels like somewhere along the way the path suddenly stops, and the audience are forced to find their own way from there on.
David Lynch’s metaphor of catching a creative fragment and “reeling it in” is very Yeatsian
IN THE OTHER ROOM ...over there......
I was there.
Epic.....

David haircut is 2022 trending
Alan Moore has a very similar theory about the creative process, he calls it "idea-space".
Where is the comment that asks where the whole interview is? So I can go and like it.
I smell ideas
“Who knows where thoughts come from, they just appear!”
ideas comes from our impressions in brain made by world.
