> I have two young kids and I'm constantly humbled by how fearless they are...There's this tremendous power in "not knowing what you don't know" that sometime in university disappeared from me...

"The teenage spirit." There was an interview[1] with one of the founders of Teenage Engineering (makers of the OP-1 synth) that drew from this line of thinking when naming their company:

> They took their name Teenage Engineering from an early prototype that they never launched, but it fits the company and its philosophy well. “The teenage spirit is sometimes about doing things without having any knowledge of how to do them,” he says. “You just do it. That’s often how we go about things. If there’s something we don’t know, say electronics, we learn; we don’t let it stop us. It’s about having more will than knowledge, which is a more rock ’n’ roll way of solving things.”
