Sometimes I think that creativity is a matter of seeing, or stumbling over, unobvious similarities between things - like composing a fresh metaphor, but on a more complex scale.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Creativity involves breaking out of established patterns in order to look at things in a different way.
Of course creativity is a mystery. We don't know what drives it or what constitutes it. It's one of those things, like genius, you know it when you see it but it's impossible to define.
I believe that all forms of creativity are related.
What you discover when you look at creativity from the perspective of the brain is that it is universal. We're all creative all of the time, we can't help but be creative.
Creativity comes from a conflict of ideas.
Creativity is how we cope with creation. While creation sometimes seems a bit un-graspable, or even pointless, creativity is always meaningful.
I think that everything is part of creativity - the more you create, the more you have ideas, and the more you meet people.
It's impossible to explain creativity. It's like asking a bird, 'How do you fly?' You just do.
Prediction by analogy -creativity - is so pervasive we normally don't notice it.
A theory of creativity is actually just a metaphor. A pool of ideas, a well of memories, a voice.
