The SOURCE is the comprehensive public release of the artist Doug Aitken's ongoing series of conversations with the creative individuals shaping contemporary culture. The focus is the starting point of creativity. Before anything is made, how are ideas and impulses generated? Where does the creative idea start? What is the journey to the finished creation?

The SOURCE creates a dialogue between mediums-visual art, architecture, film, new media and music-a space for individuals to talk candidly about their unique process. The SOURCE explores this path, from inception to realization.
