// Hayao Miyazaki and the Heron

12 August 2025
Takeaway:
  • He uses no special stationery or desk or chair... Has a boringly normal office, normal house.
  • Wears regular Uncle clothes, shoes, socks, hat...
  • It's all about what's inside you. "Open your brain lid," he says repeatedly. All about your output and what you bring to this world. The tools don't matter.

Also, taking seven years to make one piece of art! By hand!? Who does that anymore?

If you're on X a lot (like me), all you hear is people boasting about using robots to make full-length films for them in 7 seconds.

Conclusion: I want to be Hayao Miyazaki when I grow up. I want to make art.
