S1: E8 - "Nobody starts out original" - Kirby Ferguson

Kirby Ferguson is a filmmaker, writer, and speaker. He's widely
famous for his viral 2012 docuseries titled "Everything is a
Remix". His Ted talk on remixing has garnered over one and a half
million views. I've been following Kirby for close to a decade
and getting to have this time with him was like meeting another
maker that never fails to inspire you. In this jam session, Kirby
explains the blueprint for creativity and provides actionable
advice and encouragement for us to copy, combine and transform.
