This interview was done as an assignment in my Psychology 344 class. The following interview was done with Edmond Keshisyan aka Eddie K a well known Grahic designer in the Armenian community.He was nice enough to answer all my questions.

1) How do you want people to remember you?

As I am.  For me it is more important that they gently be filled with peace when remembering me.

2)If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be? please explain you choice

I would be where I currently am.   There is an old and wise saying "Just remember wherever you go, there you are."  I rather be where I am right now.

3)Have you ever doubted your talent? if so, how did you work through your doubt

Just like anyone else I too have doubts but I don't run away from my doubts.   After all that's part of the creative process.  Where there is doubt there there must be faith and where there is faith, doubt is around the corner.  The way to work through doubts is to be humble, go with the flow and it will transmute into faith and confidence.  Be like a little stream which always flows down and eventually becomes the most powerful ocean which stands the lowest.

4)Looking at what you have created in the past, would you change anything today? 

Who I am today is the result of my past.  I would not change anything because I am happy now.  Real creation does not come from my brain but from somewhere else.  It comes when I am not thinking, when there is an inner quiet.  Real creation is about constant movement.  Whether I realize it or not, what I create now is different from what I've crated a minute ago.  It's all about change, however not forced change but natural progression.
