How do you start something?
iamwil: There's all sorts of roadblocks to making stuff, but I'll just pick one.A lot of times, you think that the first thing you make will be the right one, the brilliant, the innovative, or the perfect one, so you want to spend time getting it right.To those that build things I admire, I find that they spent lots of time building things that have already been built, mostly because they wanted to have their own.  Through the process, they learned lots of stuff they needed for their opus later on.Built behind every masterpiece are thousands of throwaway sketches you never see.And oh.  From the mouth of Robert Morris, keep your system simple enough, so it fits in your head.
