Information Finding Championship - Season 1 : Bonus Entry - "Dance"
I think I will start this round off with a very special musical selection for your listening pleasure while you read about the why of it.
David Bowie (8 January 1947 – 10 January 2016) David Bowie was an English singer, songwriter and actor. He was a leading figure in popular music for over five decades, acclaimed by critics and other musicians for his innovative work.Source:From wikipedia
I have been a fan of David Bowie for a long time. His span of 5 decades had more impact on people than I feel is measurable. He wasn't just an innovator he was also a dreamer. His impact was so far felt that when Elon Musk sent his Car and Starman off toward Mars, everyone knew who the Starman was without having to ask.
I believe @apolymask that you are also like David Bowie and Elon Musk, not just a pie in the sky dreamer, but an individual who will bring his dreams about through innovative methods like those two did.
"Ground control to Major Tom...." how many people have not heard that line, and know the voice behind it. With Elon Musk Heavy falcon launch, his car and Starman riding along, I like to think that David Bowie is really out there Dancing with the stars, that ZIggy Stardust is on his way back to visit the spiders of Mars. That in his Golden years, Elon Musk will be able to look out his habitat window and gaze upon the moon Phobos and Deimos.
Dreams come true, and I think your dream of IFC growing with steemit over the years will happen. The dream is already growing, the fun is growing, and the people joining are growing. I am sure many people told David and Elon that they can't do it. They showed those naysayers that yes dreams can and do happen if you work at/for them, and you have certainly worked at and for your IFC.
I am proud to be a part of it, I have always been a believer in innovation, it is what keeps this dance we call life two stepping our way through it, as we tiptoe through the tulips to the beat of a David Bowie's Cat People, so much talent. I think I will close this out now with one more video, he was such a talent, so dream, dream big, and let no one tell you it can't be done.
Couldn't agree more! Its so cool seeing the movement we're making! I'm noticing more and more people are joining the contest! Which is awesome :)
"Lets Dance"
Makes it harder for everyone but totally worth it. Again awesome post!
Might need to save some upvote power... I'm essentially worthless at the moment haha.
Save the vote power. If you want just drop me a DM and tomorrow morning I will upvote 3 post for you.
I am very happy to read it
If you say you can do it or that you can not do it.
you're right either way.
Love this @bashadow! You are doing awesome! Great choice of song! Really a great motivator! I agree with you about @apolymask being an innovator! I think this contest is doing awesome! You play a big role in it as a whole! Thank you for the awesome entries!
Great entry! I loved the dancing in the first video. :) And the second video was also really cool! Bowie seemed like a really creative dude.
Wow.. What an amazing compliment. Thank you for the kind words. I'm not really sure what will happen but I'm definitely trying my best to do something meaningful with the time I have here. :) Thanks again for saying such humbling words.
Sometimes they do. :) And I'ma work hard to make this one come true. Especially cause it's so much bigger than me. This idea could help so many people.. It's become a major focus of mine and I think it may end up helping the world more than all my efforts combined if it does indeed go well.. So.. Yeah.. While their are some personal benefits to me, and I'm having a lot of fun too! In the end, this is so much bigger than me and the idea that it may help many others gives me tons and tons of energy to proceed. :)
Glad to hear you're proud to be a part of it! I'm proud to also have you be a part and.. Well said at the end there! As long as your dream doesn't unjustly harm anyone else, I say go for it and don't let anyone talk you out of it if you really believe in it! <3
I love Bowie too and I think you've hit the nail on the head here with the comparison to @apolymask and his IFC dreams!! wow what a great comparison - I've been brainstorming what kind of drawing I wanted to do for the bonus round and I'd be honored if you would allow me to do a Bowie "just dance" creation of some kind for my entry! -I will give you full credit for inspiring the idea of course @bashadow :-D
Let me know what you think!
Draw away, did you know there is a constellation named for David Bowie.
Image source:stardust for David Bowie
Here is one of the many story Links. And I think it is a good idea.
@bashadow yes I did hear about the constellation a little bit after he passed away - but I love that picture ! and thank you for letting me encroach a bit on your idea! :-D
