It might get loud
My wife and I saw “It Might Get Loud” last week. Fabulous movie. If you’re a guitarist, and many of us are, you can’t miss this.
The quintessential moment for me was a scene with Jimmy Page, listening to “The Rambler” in his music library. Jimmy leans back, emits a huge, white grin, and laughs as he strums his air guitar along with the reverb effect on the antique recording. Jimmy loves what he does, its the creative spark, the constant need to create. The edge talks about spending hours tweaking machinery, just to “get the equipment to sound like what’s in my head.”
True coding is just that. If you’ve got the bug, its hard to let go. Your mind is constantly racing with ideas, your fingers eager to type, wanting to bend, contort, twist the Mac until it produces software that makes your ideas come alive.
“Just like I see it in my head..”
