Creative Opportunity - SPP Journal Task 2

The second task for the SPP module is the following:

Using your own personal experience, write a few lines that describe how a personal contact has provided a creative opportunity for you.

I have always been passionate about music, however before I met my friend Frank Wild, I had always envisioned making music to be something only the rich and well connected could do. I met Frank, or Pancho as he was nicknamed, when I was in high school in Switzerland. We would go to his flat after school and during the weekends, he would DJ and we would record a bit a music and mess around with samples and just have a good time. It wasn't until that point that I realized that anyone with motivation can produce music. Not only the music was important, but I also realized that with the right equipment and the right knowledge, much more could be accomplished than I had previously thought. Pancho gave me this creative insight withought knowing it, and by doing this gave me the opportunity to pursue my own path in educating myself and making myself capable of producing my own artistic material.
