Similarly to many people, I was introduced to Grey’s works through my love of the music by the band Tool. Even my 4-year-old son saw the cover of this book and asked me why I was reading a book about Tool.
I’m thrilled I sought this book out to read. I didn’t read through it quickly, but purposefully tried to let Grey’s insights and teachings sink in.
As a middle-aged male working in corporate America, I find myself starved of creative outlets. I hope to put Grey’s words and inspiration to use as an ongoing meditative practice to improve my own mental health.
This book delves much deeper into what art can do for communities and cultures, but I’ll start at the beginning: Looking inside and finding what drives me to do good works.
Excellent read and I hope to meet Mr. Grey some day.

This book is a must for any artist to better understand the spiritual dimensions of art and the roles of conscience and intention in the creative process.

A lot of sections make sense and deserve being reread. Some bits honestly feel like I haven't burnt enough synapses on acid just yet for them to make sense to me. Overall - quite interesting and unexpected, but I had too many wtf-reactions for it to deserve a higher rating. Maybe the next time (I might have fewer synapses then!)
