Woodworking is BULLSHIT! · Episode 67 - Is ART for ARTIST, or is ART for the AUDIENCE? · 22 Jul 2026 podcast

Sure, sure, sure.

Many layers of abstraction, modal this, thought that.

It's like super intellectualized by the human brain.

And in the same way.

Is there a direct parallel to woodworking?

Yeah.

So, Eric, you tell me.

What's the lizard brain equivalent of woodworking?

I think it's like cutting boards and spoons and stools and chairs and tables, right?

Well, the whole intellectualization of whether it's music or craft,

I mean, it does seem to reek of some kind of, I don't know, pushing the boundaries or evolution of something.

So it's like, okay, we've been doing what's the necessity for a long time, whether it's like dance and primal or spoons and chairs.

But like, can we take it to that next level that's not so primal, that's less lizard brain and more, you know, homo sapien brain, you know, above the lizard level.

Oh, God.

You know, like, I don't know.

I don't know.

That's a whole different discussion.

Eric, what you're bringing up is where do you draw the line on what is a lizard brain and what is higher sentient thinking beyond the lizard brain?

And I'm not prepared to address that right now.

But what I am prepared to address is the next topic, which is Rick Rubin's take on artist as explorer versus artist as collaborator.
