So many people have somehow been taught not to mix languages, cultures and styles. To be purists and proud of our abstraction. We’ve been taught to stick to our own field or culture and never play with things we don’t already know for fear of embarrassment or shame. But risk is where the fun lies. And innovation. And the only way out of the mess we’re all in.

Playing is learning and learning is wisdom. .
