“We create the new not generally through some mad moment of inspiration in fictionalized accounts of ancient Greeks in baths… but by putting things together that do not normally go together; from taking disciplines… and seeing what happens when they are forced into unanticipated collision.”
Both a strong, pointed conceptual vision for the nature and origin of creativity, and a kind of activity book for grown-ups that invites you to learn how to implement the skill set of creativity through a series of hands-on exercises applicable wherever your creative journey may take you, from the studio to the classroom to the boardroom.
