- In 2012, I built an entire tea house from scratch. Every element was made by hand, except for the central element, a tea bowl (or chawan) that I bought on eBay and engraved with a NASA worm. NYC ceramics master JJPEET was there to call me out. Since then I’ve dedicated myself to mastering making ceramic tea bowls.
This is a video of me making a bowl with the pinch pot method that my master (JJPEET) taught me. The tea bowl that I'm always trying to make ( my north star) is the one Sen no Rikyū commissioned Chōjirō to make over 500 years ago. I chose to dedicate the necessary hours to perfecting this method. I’m 8,700 hours in.
We’ve all worked hard together on this Wear Tester Journey work with some rules and guidelines under which we make our art. We establish our own rules to keep us from going crazy with the endless choices that the universe provides (the existential abyss). We use structure to keep us in line so we can finish the damn project. Now is the time to throw it all out of the fucking window. Find your own voice. Stick with it and proceed down the road.

Lifes journey begins with a single step - 10,000 hours begins with a single hour.

Feeling spirited from this
if you do something nobody has done before, isn't that already world class?
A good quote can be found in the description above.....

This Spirited Man needs to remember this. I have abandoned way too many projects just as I was getting it going. What is worse is that I have over 20 projects on the shelf I haven't started either!
I really need more time and mostly discipline.
This Spirited Man is right there with you...a shelf and box dedicated to started yet unfinished projects is like the nagging little fly that buzzes by your face every now and then.
So I'm an internet and youtube expert.
Maybe take some pottery classes.
All of Tom's pottery has this 'made by a young child' look to it.
@@BROON71 all of his art has a “I’m putting in minimal effort because I’m on so many layers of irony and non-conformism that I think shitty things in mass volumes is subversive and artistic somehow”
Intrigued by the ramen / cup-o-noodle cabinets in the background.
wish i could work for you one day, sachs.
I’ve been at this a lifetime
Wish I could afford Mars yards smh
This dude is a perfect case study in how much of a hack someone can be. It doesn’t get much worse than this in the “artist” community
this is actually a lie. the actual figure is 3,000 to 22,000
The lessons from life are usually wrong and based on events that didn't happen. 10,000 hours is a perfect example. Who ever stopped, said "I'm a master", and checked the clock?
What is this saying when you put NASA on the pot? You need pot to get to space?
