Hosted by photographer, author, and former comedian David duChemin, A Beautiful Anarchy is a deeply human, honest, and insightful mostly-weekly kick in the pants for anyone who longs to create anything with soul and too often finds themselves mud-wrestling with the muse to do so. A Beautiful Anarchy is a candid ongoing exploration of what it means to be an everyday creator, whether you're a writer, photographer, sculptor, or a puppeteer who works exclusively with vintage macrame owls. The struggles and rewards of bringing something new into the world are universal, and you’re not alone. Let's talk about it.
Sometimes the thing we're building, whether that's an exciting new project or a whole career, feels so big and overwhelming it seems impossible. Focusing on that bigger thing, we wonder if we'll ever get traction on our efforts to build it. So what do we do? Dream smaller? Settle for less? Oh, God, I hope not. Let's talk about it.

More Than Fun
Isn't art-making and creativity meant to be fun? Why is it so often a source of struggle than anything a sane person would call fun? And are the challenges worth it? Or is there something bigger at play here, something more than fun? I have this feeling we create because we must, because it's part of who we are, and that we do it because it's hard. Because that's where flow, transformation, and meaning are to be found, or created. Let's talk about it.

Jung said introversion and extroversion were about where we got our energy, our fuel; maybe it's time we stopped yakking about which pump we get out gas at, focused more on where we're going with our creativity, and got in the car.
