Sometimes I reflect on the concept of ignorance is bliss as applied to the creative process.
Ignorance of how its done or how it should be and so on can open the door for very creative and unusual compositions. Think Paul McCartney not wanting to learn to read music to stay pure.
Dumb. Actually.
The reality of the situation is that a tool is just a tool and creativity is a mindset and way of being, the way of knowing things, the way of arranging things, the way of expressing things.
The tools used, such as knowledge of music theory, knowledge of song structure, a hammer, make no difference to the truly creative mind.
Create, by any means necessary.
