One day I was flipping through a Ripley’s Believe it or Not book when I read a quote typed below a photograph of Ludwig van Beethoven that caught my eye. It stated that three Austrian businessmen had commissioned him to write some music. Instead of paying him for writing the piece, they gave him a large sum of money just for walking every day from sunrise to noon. They didn’t compensate him to compose music because they believed that the secret to creating a masterpiece had more to do with his ability to tap into the pure potential of his creativity. They were confident it was possible to access this through the simple act of walking.
Just before I left to film my first documentary on location in Spain, a good friend sent me a postcard that had a picture of Pablo Picasso dressed in a black and white striped shirt. The the caption read, “If you know exactly what it is you are going to do, what is the point in doing it.” In that moment, I had no idea what I was going to do.
