Art by committee comes out rather ugly, but art by collaboration shines.
One of the biggest frustrations in any creative endeavor is dealing with committee-driven process. This is not the same as collaboration. Its one thing to sit in a group that nit picks rather than team together to create. Let me contrast the two.
Committee vs. Collaboration
- policy / results
- opinions / ownership
- tinkering / crafting
- power / process
- beige / colorful
- safe / risky
- boring / fun
- defused / potent
- status quo / fluid
Let me know what you think about the differences here. Are these true to your experience?
