         CSS columns balanced the run into three ragged stacks: a column ran
         long and dangled a photograph below the others, a wide frame overran
         the square its neighbours implied, and a hole opened where the last
         short column stopped. The rows are JUSTIFIED instead - solved at
         build time in galleryize.py, shipped as explicit flex rows.
         A cell's --a is its native aspect. flex-grow:var(--a) over a zero
         basis hands each photo in a row the width a_i x h out of the row's
         free space, so every photo in the row stands at the same height h
         and the last one lands exactly on the right edge - flush left AND
         right, nothing cropped, no measurement on the page. */

          How to find Inspiration....

I don't think it is a question of where I find inspiration but how I find it. Inspiration is everywhere and it can be channeled through everything. To me, finding inspiration is all about perception and perspective.

The world is oversaturated with inspiration, but so many people never realize this because they walk among the earth aimlessly fixed from a singular perspective. I think finding inspiration is as simple as letting it happen. However, one can't expect to find immeasurable inspiration by doing the same task the same way every day. One has to be willing to take on new experiences and test their limitations. I strongly believe by constantly getting outside one's comfort zone one will find organic inspiration.

This is where I find my inspiration, doing familiar things in unfamiliar ways as well as taking on new adventures and experiences. Furthermore, I believe in order to find inspiration one must first open themselves up to the world of possibilities and the great unknown. To affirm something exists is to ignorantly claim knowledge of it but to touch, hear, smell, taste, and see something; that is to truly know it. Thus, I believe inspiration lies at the doorstep of curiosity. I find inspiration through my curiosity and hunger for knowledge.

I find inspiration in my search for meaning and understanding. I look at the world before me and question life endlessly. However, it is not so much in finding the answer to my questions that inspiration lies in the process itself. It is the journey of discovery that is the reward and it is in the journey that I find my inspiration.

New in-depth behind-the-scenes breakdown of this documentary/music video hybrid I had the pleasure of working on with @danemyers is available on my YouTube channel and linked in my bio or go check out the documentary on his page today.
