PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- He woke up each morning with the smell of expensive paint even though jazz musician Carl Størmer, the first speaker at day two of BIF9, said his family was poor.
His late mother, an artist, and music taught him to do what makes you happy. Simplify so you can be present. Improvise when you can. And don't worry.
Størmer is the principal / founder JazzCode Inc., a consulting and entertainment firm specializing in improvisational collaboration and structured communication.
The two day conference for "innovation junkies" continues at Trinity Rep to 4:30 p.m.
