multiple (arbitrary) disciplines

of all the comments received on our youtube video, two stood out to me above the rest:

FINALLY! Science meets the Indescribable Yahweh! Powerful video! I loved the famous Appolo 8 Genesis reading, the SOUND of thunder, the wolf howl.

and:

You did an awesome job on the Indescribable video! Your version far surpasses the rest...thank you. What makes you tick? I have a sense that you "get it" on a deeper level and that has made it possible for the Creator to bless you with TALENT... LOVE... etc. This is kinda rare so I just was wondering. Meltingearth is a good name too... Are you driven for some calling here in these times? Do you KNOW?

i think both of these point at something important - and that is a multi-disciplinary approach to creating content. my introduction to this idea goes back to when my brother was finishing his undergrad work in English and was thinking about going right on for his PHD, but was told by his mentor to "go live first, so you have something to write about". so my brother became a fireman. think he has lived? i'm pretty damn sure he has.

video editing, like any other mode of content creation, doesn't exist as pure discipline. everything is video editing and video editing is everything. everything is philosophy, and everything is painting, and everything is art, and math and science and storytelling and sociology and worship. and this is where i think anyone who creates content; be that musician or mathematician, editor or physicist, painter or theologian - does so effectively and with meaning, only in the context of, and dependant upon, their proficiency / experience with many other things.

if a mathematician tells me that .999 repeating is equal-to (exactly the same-as) one... that has implication for how I think of infinity and God and myself. its a mathematical proof but its also an idea that has changed my mind and crosses into philosophy and theology and how i see the world.

if a theologian tells you God is love... how will you understand that?
