Give It All You’ve Got

Rob Lowe

OCT 01 • 2:45 - 3:30 PM

Meridian Hall — Main Stage

In a time of instant slickness and veneer-thin generated graphics, we need more depth, more surprises.

Layering of meaning (hidden and overt), multiple influences, nonsensical nuance, giving it all you have got; clashing styles and interests; inside jokes, esoterica; personal joys, contagious enthusiasm; ravaging your past for forgotten treasure; willfully throwing yourself into the amateur; making the unpredictable, which even you don’t fully understand; being open to serendipity, open to changes in direction. Everything doesn’t have to be for everyone. A return to being excited by detail, differences. Making for small audiences. Making it personal. Making it for yourself. Reclaiming oddity as a radical act with purpose. Trusting in the sophistication of people to understand. And layers. Layers, layers, layers!
