Re: "What is Creativity?"
Titled: Brain Babies
Here is my 2cents for an example of- defining 'what is creativity' by illustrating a character-creature. This example comes straight from my sketchbook as a first attempt at working out this idea.
It is based on the facts of some fish species which are called 'mouth brooders'- meaning that this fish broods its eggs or young inside its mouth. often, it is the father fish that does this. In my case, I have a 'mother' brain brooding her brain babies
I have used a 400 series sketchbook [60lb./light texture/acid free/premium recycled paper], a graphite drawing pencil [of H hardness], and a canon camera to get it into the digital realm.
So the challenge is on!! have FUN with it....
Re: "What is Creativity?"
That was very creative TwidderBird, and very interesting. It's nice to see a hand drawn drawing too, especially with such a fascinating theme. If I get a chance I will put up something too, in due course. I'm glad you took this from one forum to another, and from one form of the idea to another. It's been a thought-provoking experience.

Re: "What is Creativity?"
thank you james for your nice words. It took a long time for me to come up with an example. not until I used the phrase brain babies in the Off Topic thread. it was then that that visulization popped in my head. I think I had recently been looking into these fish who mouth brood.
neodeist, your example is interesting! it makes me think of all that you wrote regarding Creation vs creation. would you be willing to share how you came to this? if so, thank you!
ankhor, nice job! I'm left staring at it with wonder. Wonder and curiosity.
would you also be willing to share how you came to this?
thanks guys!!
Re: "What is Creativity?"
How I came to it? Plato ... partly ... and all night sessions mentally meandering ;)) I suppose it's akin to the Big-Bang theory - Creation is built up of innumerable creations ... bright ideas that are unique or which add to something already in existence. Plato would say the Ideal Forms exist in the Real World [as opposed to the shadow world we are aware of and inhabit] and we 'remember' bits of these. I think new things can be created and therefore Creation is expanding. No religious inferences need be taken from this, it is merely the nature of things ;) :cool:

I'm not a cartoonist that's for sure, but I thought this would fit in with the theme of creating a character for this challenge.
