Episode 61 - Roy Sharples - Creativity Without Frontiers
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
My guest today is Roy Sharples, the Founder and CEO of Unknown Origins whose mission is to build a better future by “saving the world from unoriginality by unleashing the power of creativity”.
When you start a company with as bold and inspiring a mission as that you must have strong views and a real belief in them. Roy shares a lot of those views and thoughts during our conversation and whilst I don’t necessarily agree with everything, he says to his immense credit he’s never anything less than thought provoking.
I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation and got real insight and inspiration from it. I hope the same will be true for you.
If you want to dig deeper into Roy’s thinking, then last year he published a book which is the title of the episode ‘Creativity Without Frontiers’. It’s available here:
but as we discuss in the episode, visiting your local independent bookshop might be preferable 😊

It was no surprise that Roy’s selections were wide and varied and included music from two film soundtracks. His selections were:
· 70’s Walk On the Wild Side Lou Reed
· 80’s What Difference Does It Make? The Smiths
· 90’s Fade Into You Mazzy Star
· 00’s Comptine d’un autre été, l’apres-midi Yann Tiersen
· 10’s King And Lionheart Of Monsters and Men
· 20’s No Time To Die Billie Eilish
Enjoy!
