WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW – EPISODE 39 – ORIGINALITY
In the final episode of her special ‘3 Sundays’ series, Cindy and her studio guest Nick Cummins discuss music and the idea that ‘what the world needs now’ is ORIGINALITY. This two-hour episode of ‘What The World Needs Now’ was broadcast on Southern FM on Sunday 14th April 2024.
“Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery—celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from—it’s where you take them to.”
– Jim Jarmusch
