      Masterfully Insightful November 23, 2007
Written by KC_1980s
This is a rare look into the mind of a master of his craft. While it’s explicitly about guitar craft, the discussion would apply to anyone who creates things out of thin air, including comptuer programmers. The distinctions among the tradesman, master, and apprentice are very applicable to the computer field. So is the tension between doing your trade day in and day out and still trying to be inspired by what excited you in the first place. I detect Taoist thought in places, especially about not trying to play a correct note and then playing it anyway. What would be great is if Fripp would take all these aphorisms and ideas and distill them into a handy book.
