I had a very similar reaction to yours--the example they played under his voice over wasn&amp;#x27;t very impressive to me and I&amp;#x27;m not much of a Jack White fan to begin with.&lt;p&gt;Now that I&amp;#x27;m writing this, I suppose one useful concept is that of constraints promoting creativity by forcing you to come at the blank canvas from a different mindset than you&amp;#x27;re used to.&lt;p&gt;I suppose there are some times to struggle and grow but other times, like a competitive swimmer shedding his &amp;#x27;drags&amp;#x27;, to engage our full unhindered capacity free of such artificial handicaps.&lt;p&gt;Another musical example for me is the band Amaranthe. They usually make extensive use of modern production techniques but their talent is also very evident when they&amp;#x27;re unplugged:&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.youtube.com&amp;#x2F;embed&amp;#x2F;J4Jhpx2Qmz4?start=61&amp;amp;end=290&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.youtube.com&amp;#x2F;embed&amp;#x2F;J4Jhpx2Qmz4?start=61&amp;amp;end=290&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Music video for the same song:

You could produce the same C++ program in Notepad that you could in any other editor or IDE. Here the artist is working with restricted tools in a way that the restriction becomes part of the work itself</text><parent_chain><item><author>mattigames</author><text>That&amp;#x27;s exactly as saying that someone made a full c++ program using nothing but notepad and therefore it&amp;#x27;s impressive.
