Creativity and Illusions go hand in hand.
2007-09-17 09:05:00 Scary House Illusion - video powered by Metacafe This is an illusion made from the guys over at CoolopticalIllusions . As you can see even a kid can do this. Which is exactly the point, when we were kids we could take any object or picture and give it at least 5 different meanings. To be creative, we need to see things from different perspectives, including a child’s. Children that are just growing up don’t worry about what things should be, all they want to do explore, explore, explore. As adults we need to regain that sense of curiosity and excitement that we had we were children. So if you’re working on an idea that you’ve come up and want some feedback, go ask your 2 year old kid for some advice. I know this has happened to a lot of people, they’ll give you something to think about. If you’ve got any related personal story you want to share I’d like to hear about it.

The Myths of Innovation.
2007-09-15 23:40:00 Much of what we know about innovation is wrong. That’s the bet this talk takes, as it romps through the history of innovation, dispelling the mythologies we’ve constructed about how we got here. This talk, will help you to recognize the myths, understand why they’re popular (even if you don’t believe in them), and how to use the truth to help you innovate today. By the way Scott Berkun the author of the book The Myth s of Inno vation went to Google to give this talk. Some key points: - Innovation and design are ancient. - We can learn from their history and mythology. - Organization of any size can innovate. - Innovation is simple, but hard: delegate, expect mistakes, reward initiative. I haven’t read the book, I will read it. Many of the things that he says aren’t really that mind boggling, mainly because the history of the world already holds all the information we need to innovate. It’s all a cycle. As I’ve been preaching in previous ...

We don’t see things as they are, we see them as we are.
2007-09-15 02:22:00 Studies in neuroscience indicate that the sense we make of external things is based in small part in what we see outside and in large part on the patterns located in our minds. The mind appears to do this, in part, by choosing to ignore some of the external world. Our eyes and ears constantly gather information, but our mind is not really processing it at all. This stimulation flows into the brain, where what seems to be an internally related pattern appears, which the brain uses to represent the external situation. An example of this is as if a visitor came to the front door and rang the bell, and the person inside, just by a quick glance through the peephole, formed a complete profile of the person outside, without opening the door. We know from experience that we have the ability to form snap judgments about people immediately, and these judgments are sometimes wrong. Yet this process is extraordinarily efficient and effective, which is why there are peepholes in doors in ... More About: Things
