multiinteressiert#38 InspirationNebelige Herbsttage, sinkende Temperaturen, Dunkelheit - gibt es einen besseren Zeitpunkt, um sich über Inspiration auszutauschen?
Unsere beiden Multiinteressierten legen heute jeden Anspruch auf Wissenschaftlichkeit ab, halten sich nicht mit langen Definitionen und theoretischen Einordnungen auf, sondern zeigen wie subjektiv Inspiration sein kann. Was inspiriert uns, wie verstehen wir Inspiration für uns selbst und welche ganz persönlichen Hilfestellungen zu kreativen Eingebungen wir kennen, erfahrt ihr in dieser Folge.
Wer der beiden ist wohl der Naturliebhaber und wer zieht Inspiration aus Architektur? Hört rein und lasst uns an euren Inspirationsquellen teilhaben!
