A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
创造
Creation
The beautiful part of writing is that you don't have to get it right the first time, unlike, say, a brain surgeon. You can always do it better, find the exact word, the apt phrase, the leaping simile.
写作的美妙之处在于,你不必像脑外科医生那样,第一次就把事情做好。你总能做得更好,找到准确的词,恰当的短语,跳跃的比喻。
At first, I see pictures of a story in my mind. Then creating the story comes from asking questions of myself. I guess you might call it the 'what if - what then' approach to writing and illustration.
起初,我看到一个故事的图片在我的脑海中。然后通过问自己问题来创造故事。我猜你可能会把它称为“如果-如果-然后”的方法来写和说明。
Do What?' 'Lie,' he said. 'Why do you fabricate these outlandish stories?' 'Well,' I wanted to say, 'there are those of us who create because all around us, things visible and invisible are crumbling.
做什么?“撒谎,”他说。“你为什么要编造这些稀奇古怪的故事?”“嗯,”我想说,“我们当中有些人在创造,因为在我们周围,看得见和看不见的东西都在崩溃。”
With NOAH, you can create some stunning, yet original soundscapes. Therefore, as a performance tool, it really comes into its own because you can make one single performance which has a lot of detail.
与诺亚,你可以创造一些惊人的,但原始的声音场景。因此,作为一种性能工具,它真正发挥了自己的作用,因为您可以创建一个包含很多细节的性能。
Animation is different from other parts. Its language is the language of caricature. Our most difficult job was to develop the cartoon's unnatural but seemingly natural anatomy for humans and animals.
动画不同于其他部分。它的语言是讽刺的语言。我们最困难的工作是为人类和动物创造出非自然但看似自然的解剖结构。
The idea of old was to conform yourself to a style of cooking, it was not to create a style of cooking. Now the chef is so much into 'I want to sign that dish and say I am the one who made that dish.'
老的想法是让自己符合一种烹饪风格,而不是创造一种烹饪风格。现在,这位厨师非常热衷于“我想在这道菜上签名,并说这道菜是我做的”。
And with as delicate a hand Could twist as tough a rope of sand; And weave fine cobwebs, fit for skull That’s empty when the moon is full; Such as take lodgings in a head That’s to be let unfurnished.
用一只灵巧的手就能捻出一根结实的沙绳;编织精致的蛛网,适合在满月时空着的头颅;比如住在一个没有家具的房子里。
An object imbued with intent - it has power, it's treasure, we're drawn to it. An object devoid of intent - it's random, it's imitative, it repels us. It's like a piece of junk mail to be thrown away.
一个充满意图的物体——它有力量,它是宝藏,我们被它吸引。一个没有意图的物体——它是随机的,它是模仿的,它排斥我们。这就像一封要扔掉的垃圾邮件。
If you look at the buildings, you'll find that one part looks as if it was designed by one man, and you go around and look at another facade and it looks as if it was designed by another man, you see.
如果你看看这些建筑,你会发现其中一个部分看起来像是由一个人设计的,然后你去看另一个立面,你会发现它看起来像是由另一个人设计的。
People gave us everything for free. We were allowed only so much film per picture, but there was no limit to the creativity. I like to say that they let us loose like wild dogs in the streets of Paris.
人们给我们免费的一切。我们每幅画只能拍这么多胶卷,但创造力是无限的。我想说的是,他们让我们像野狗一样在巴黎的街道上自由自在。
The nature of an innovation is that it will arise at a fringe where it can afford to become prevalent enough to establish its usefulness without being overwhelmed by the inertia of the orthodox system.
创新的本质是,它将出现在一个边缘地带,在这个边缘地带,创新可以变得足够普遍,从而确立其有用性,而不会被正统体系的惯性所压倒。
The recognition of the art that informs all pure science need not mean the abandonment for it of all present art, rather it will mean the completion of the transformation of art that has already begun.
对所有纯科学的艺术的承认并不意味着对所有现有艺术的放弃,而是意味着已经开始的艺术改造的完成。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Research is to see what everybody else has seen, and to think what nobody else has thought.
研究就是去看别人都看过的东西,去想别人没想过的东西。
There is nothing deep down inside us except what we have put there ourselves.
在我们的内心深处,除了我们自己创造出来的东西,什么都没有。
People must insist on the right to say no, to be alone, to stand out from the herd. Creative artists can say all this in their own way and in their own field, by hard, rigorous work.
人们必须坚持说“不”的权利,坚持独处的权利,坚持从人群中脱颖而出的权利。有创造力的艺术家可以在他们自己的领域,通过努力,严谨的工作,用他们自己的方式来表达这一切。
If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it.
如果有一本书你想读,但还没有写出来,那么你必须写出来。
Because imagination created the world, it governs it.
因为想象力创造了世界,所以它统治着世界。
The creative process is not controlled by a switch you can simply turn on or off; it's with you all the time.
创造的过程不是由一个开关控制的,你可以简单地打开或关闭;它一直伴随着你。
