I'm looking for things that click with people, and create a sense of wonderment and possibility and that there's magic in the world, and that makes you want to do stuff, makes you feel like it's possible to do stuff. It can be about anything, in any kind of medium.

Here are some of mine, to give you an example:

An infinitely zoomable game of life, this sci-fi book that is both compulsively readable and philosophically deep, this weird art thing, this creative use of LLMs, this programming project of a geometric modeling language, and this other programming project about music, this protocol that a guy randomly made, this beautiful idiocy, these live cams of ships.

These all make me perk up a bit, come alive a little in very different ways. Please share anything that creates this feeling in you.

I've been watching lots of terraforming videos.

Somehow, while I think terraforming makes no sense and is preposterous, I also find the possibilities pretty magnificent.

Maybe this one. All I know for sure is that I watched it, though.

None of them really go deep on the approach I'm most interested in, which is basically seeding the most habitable areas with the organisms most likely to survive them and letting nature take its course from there with relatively few other interventions.

Something about spreading life to other worlds really speaks to me, even though I think it makes little sense to spread people to other worlds.

Why don't you think it makes sense to eventually spread people to other worlds?

Leer un libro impreso de poemas de amor, no en febrero sino cualquier mes, me produce lealtad a mi fan de leer, caminar al amanecer entre árboles y oír el trino de pájaros, algunos imitando la alarma de un auto o el timbre de un teléfono, te produce una correlación ciudad bosque donde te preguntás ¿ Qué sonido haría un pajarito que imita los sonidos si estuviera lejos de la ciudad?.

Maybe fifteen years ago, I was driving through an incredibly violent storm listening to this. It was one of those weird storms where the lightning seems to be moving vertically as much as it is horizontally. The rain was really intense, but kind of paused at that part of the music where you get sucked into the bubble. This was also right when I drove over a bridge from an industrial part of town to a more residential area. It was like my whole car got sucked into this super peaceful bubble and then dumped right back into the storm again when things in the music got intense again.

Also…as a bitcoiner, you gotta enjoy the encrypted cover art of that album, albeit a little less magical.

For me seeing things being completed / repaired / transformed helps. This makes me continue with everything.

Mhh, I think I know what you mean. I think the way ChessMakta is combining art with chess is cool like that.

~Design is trying to fill this gap with creative posts, and a biweekly series that want to stimulate inspiration and brainstorm ideas #1267707

The best way to get inspired is usually to start doing something different out of routines and schedules. Improvise, surprise yourself with randomness to simply observe the results.
