Creativity that creates


DEFINING CREATIVITY

What exactly is 'creativity'?? Is it simply a drawing on paper that makes people goes 'WOW'?? Or is it just an art on canvas, walls etc?? Well, according to some artist,

"Creative is any act, idea, or product which changes the existing domain, or transform the existing domain into a new one. What counts is whether he or she produces is accepted for inclusion in the domain" - csikszentmihalyi




How about the picture on the left?? Haha, that is new for Bean.


To me, creativity is the ability to creates something new! New product... New ways to solve things... And new ideas that are unique and have an interesting values . The creativity is what colors the life all of us and also changes the perspective of some people too. For example, how the 'car' is designed... Some of the car have a basic shape of a circle but some of the car is square. There's might be a car that uses a triangle basic shape... Who knows? Haha.. There are a lot of examples in drawing too of course. Drawings like Pablo Picasso's painting, he uses a new technique which are unique, simple and very odd... BUT, he manage to attract people... Sooo, creativity are not that just for an eye catching... it is the idea that matters. :)


By the way, I have something to share with! :D A story!

We can be creative if we are trained from childhood and there is some people that are creative because they have the talent to do so.... I don't know which group I belong to though... haha. When I was a child, I like to play figures, toys, computer games, playstations (which is good ^^) and last but not least, a lego! :D All of these things helped me a lot in developing creative thinking. ^^
Top: Examples of toys (model) that helps develops creativity of mind.

Top: A screenshots from a game called 'Monster Hunter 3' It's cool right? Unique settings.

Moral of the story: Always let your child play games! Especially play station. ^^ *kidding*
