Welcome to Creative Studies.. Define Creativity

Semester 2 / 2009-2010. A new short semester covering only 8 weeks of classes. A challenge in taking creative studies. Am i in a dead end if im not creative enough?





Or is it just a beginning of a new journey to learn new things that i had never thought of before on how to be creative..

DEFINING CREATIVITY

My personal opinion, to be creative sometimes we need to be very aware of the thing surrounding us. Take things into account, although personally i don't like complaining but sometimes through complaining is what brought creativity up. we Innovate from what we don't like or what we see.

OK now lets see the source of what it says about creativity.An article from web http://www.creativityatwork.com/articlesContent/whatis.htm

What is Creativity?

By Linda Naiman

I define creativity as the act of turning new and imaginative ideas into reality. Creativity involves two processes: think

ing, then producing. Innovation is the production or implementation of an idea. If you have ideas, but don't act on them, you are imaginative but not creative.

“Creativity is the process of bringing something new into being...creativity requires passion and commitment. Out of the creative act is born symbols and myths. It brings to our awareness what was previously hidden and points to new life. The experience is one of heightened consciousness–ecstasy.”
— Rollo May, The Courage to Create

“A product is creative when it is (a) novel and (b) appropriate. A novel product is original not predictable. The bigger the concept, and the more the product stimulates further work and ideas, the more the product is creative.”
— Sternberg & Lubart, Defying the Crowd
