Creativity is the defeat of habit by originality - arthur koestler
some attributes of creativity:
Challenging assumptions
being receptive to new ideas
recognising similarities or differences
making unlikely connections
taking risks
building on ideas to make better ones
looking at things in new ways
taking advantage of the unexpected
taking chances....
every discovery by definition is unpredictable. if it were predictible it would not be a discovery. Creativity exposes unpredictable things to be discovered.
art is what you can get away with - marshall mcluhan
colour is a power which directly influences the soul. colour is the keyboard, the eyes, the hammer, the soul is the piano with many strings. The artist is the hand which places, touching one key or another to cause vibration in the soul. It is therefore evident that colour harmony must rest only on a corresponding vibration in the human soul. - W Kandinsky
it may be those who do most, dream most - stephen leacock
a truly poetic canvas is an awakened dream - Rene Magritte
unless ideas are massaged into reality they evaporate....
between the idea and the reality. between the motion and the act. falls the shadow. - T.S Eliot
is the mind more like a fancy system of domino chains or a bathtub full of spring-loaded mousetraps? i'm betting the latter. - douglas hofstadter
thinking is drawing in your head
if you don't know where you are going all roads lead to there - roman proverb
what is now proved was once only imagined - william blake
imagination is the active ingredient of thinking. imagination jumps from present facts to future possibilities. imagination forms mental pictures of things not present. imagination conjures up correspondences and analogies.
imaging is to visualising, as language is to thinking.
perceptual paradox -
it is theory which decides what we can observe - einstein
seeing is decieving. its eating thats believing - james thurber
the opposite of a true statement is a false statement, but the opposite of a profound truth may be another profound truth - niels bohr
empty and be full. bend and be straight. have much and be confused. have little and gain everything - chinese proverb
writing enlarges the landscape of the mind...
