What happens when perfection is no longer the target, but instead the focus is on exploration? There is a story about a ceramics class divided into two groups. Group A is to spend all week making only one perfect pot, while Group B is to focus on making as many pots as possible. At the end of the week what they discovered was that Group B had the better pot. We get so caught up in getting it right that sometimes we hesitate to get it done. Rather than wait 'til I knew what I was doing, I decided to learn as I go. What resulted is Fool Potential, an album that I wrote, recorded, and produced on my own. Although I wasn't making pots, I was also using clay. Each track has a sculpted scene and stop-motion to go with it.
