My Desk, My World

1 Comment

A short film documentary on the correlation between your desk space and your artistic frame of mind.  In this age of mobile communications and “nomadic working,” we can still see the power of our desks as our “aspirational space.”

If a messy desk is a sign of a messy mind, then what is an empty desk a sign of?

What is the future of The Desk?

“The reality of life today means that you can’t always be there (your desk), and in fact you have to take that idea of that working space with you.  Probably whats going to happen in the future is the desk becomes more of a state of mind than an actual physical place.”

What is your desk style?

    This reminds me of when I was reading Stephen King’s biography. He had this totally baller desk I guess, like an old ship captains desk. Think of the desk in the Oval Office. During this time he was also heavily into drug use, and actually didn’t remember writing entire books that were best sellers. He had the desk in the middle of the room, dominating everything, the center of attention. He realized later that his writing wasn’t his life, it was a piece of his life. Now, he writes off in the corner, away from the center of attention.
    Anyhow, my desk is in the center of my room, facing away from the window. It’s also cluttered, has used plates and glasses, bobblehead dolls, miniature terra cotta warriors I got in San Fran, video games, coffee cups, a thing of Gorilla Glue for some reason, and a bunch of other grimble. I agree the desk is a reflection of the mind that works at it; mine is never tidy, and usually has random things lying around I’d never use (like an audio cassette- where’d I get that?). But I like having a desk to work at, because it gives me a place to use as a conduit of creativity rather than just spraying it all over the place. That guy Kurt Anderson has the right idea.
