There’s no creation without inspiration. Curate to create. This is the way.

Curation is so deeply under-explored on the Internet in my opinion. It sits right in between consumption and creation and is the perfect bridge between the two, allowing us to actively engage with what we consume to then produce work from this saved knowledge.

curation is a tangible expression of taste, and the appealing thing is that what you curate never has to fall short of your taste creation is scary because it’ll constantly fall short of your taste, and only through continuing to create can you ever close the gap

Curation, in a sense, is its own form of intertextuality, or the shaping of a text’s meaning by another text. Content doesn’t exist on the Internet in a vacuum: it takes up space, and it forms a web of influence and connections. We have the content. Now, the question becomes: what will we do with it?
