Designing from the Inside Out: Tom Briggs on Process, Burnout, and Creative Alignment
Tom Briggs
“You can just kind of do stuff if you want to. You don't necessarily have to wait for somebody's permission. You can make things whatever you want as long as you're willing to put it out there.”
“Research is what you do when the project is launched. But intuition is what you've been doing your whole life. It's a built understanding.”
“If you're not trying to push the envelope, you're probably just making something that's fairly average. Punk and hardcore influenced me with just saying, screw it. I'll take a crack at it if I feel strongly about it.”
“If you can see somebody else like yourself doing something, it's often easier to imagine yourself doing it.”
“If somebody utterly hates something, there's good chances somebody else absolutely loves it and is going to want it. But if it's just middle of the road, are they really going to fork out the money for it?”
