Thanks to Kevin McGuire who noted this talk from TED by Evelyn Glennie in a comment a few posts back - inspiring on so many levels, which is why I’m reposting it. Hard to pick out individual moments of greatness (her work on behalf of disabled children in music and education is remarkable), but one of the less prominent observations - that the harder you hold a drumstick, the more tired you’ll get and the less sound you’ll make - teaches a lot of lessons.

And here’s another one that I’ve been pointing people at recently - Tim Brown on creativity and play, reminding us - again - of what we once had as children, what we lose as adults, and giving us permission to be playful in the pursuit of innovation.
