Podcasts about imagine how creativity works

I have taken a whole week break since graduation, and this week I am back at it! Capstone time begins now. My capstone project will consist of a deep-dive into the research around the benefits of creativity in order to write a robust literature review. Beyond the academic paper, I am creating a book proposal for my next non-fiction book about everyday creativity. Here are the 10 books about creativity I mentioned in the episode: "Creativity: Flow and the Psychology of Discovery and Invention" by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi - Explores the concept of flow and how it relates to creativity, offering insights into the creative process. "Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear" by Elizabeth Gilbert - Encourages readers to embrace their creativity, overcome fear, and lead a more inspired and fulfilling life. "The Artist's Way" by Julia Cameron - A renowned guidebook for nurturing creativity and unblocking artistic potential through a twelve-week program of self-discovery and creative exercises. "Originals: How Non-Conformists Move the World" by Adam Grant - Explores the characteristics and behaviors of original thinkers and provides insights on how to champion new ideas and drive meaningful change. "Steal Like an Artist: 10 Things Nobody Told You About Being Creative" by Austin Kleon - Offers unconventional advice and inspiration for embracing creativity, encouraging readers to borrow from other artists and find their unique creative voice. "Creative Confidence: Unleashing the Creative Potential Within Us All" by Tom Kelley and David Kelley - Written by the founders of IDEO, this book explores how to unlock and nurture creativity in individuals and organizations. "The War of Art: Break Through the Blocks and Win Your Inner Creative Battles" by Steven Pressfield - Examines the challenges and resistance faced by creative individuals and provides strategies for overcoming obstacles and unlocking creative potential. "Art & Fear: Observations on the Perils (and Rewards) of Artmaking" by David Bayles and Ted Orland - Explores the psychological and emotional aspects of the creative process and addresses common fears and obstacles faced by artists. "Imagine: How Creativity Works" by Jonah Lehrer - Investigates the science and psychology behind creativity, offering insights into the creative process and strategies for cultivating creative thinking. "The Creative Habit: Learn It and Use It for Life" by Twyla Tharp - Provides practical advice and exercises for developing creative habits, enhancing productivity, and fostering long-term creativity. Bonus. "Create Anyway: The Joy of Pursuing Creativity in the Margins of Motherhood" by Ashlee Gadd is part pep talk, part permission slip.

Creativity is incredibly important to me. That's why I read Jonah Lehrer's book, Imagine: How Creativity Works, even though he's been disgraced for being a little too “creative” with his Bob Dylan quotes. Before he got himself disgraced, he made all the podcast rounds so not much of the book was a particular surprise to me. I've heard the story of the invention of the Swiffer. I know all about Pixar's architecture. I am familiar with 3M's post-it note development. However, the cumulative effect of reading the whole book made me feel like the people who really care about creativity are in business, not the arts. Businesses like 3M, Pixar and Wieden+Kennedy are in the business of innovating, so they do the studies. They run the experiments. They actually value creativity, it would seem.

Today we talk about how to be more creative. How to do you maximize creativity? I review a book called "Imagine: How Creativity Works" by Jonah Lehrer. The book breaks down a lot of studies and research about how people and corporations foster and/or boost creativity. You can learn from scientific research to help you boost your own creativity. It is not a "you are born with it" type of thing. Everyone has creativity in them. It is about working on it and putting yourself in the best position to maximize your results. Come learn for yourself, so you can achieve the creativity you want. Big Time Dreams!

IMAGINE: HOW CREATIVITY WORKS with Jonah LehrerDid you know that the most creative companies have centralized bathrooms? That brainstorming meetings are a terrible idea? That the color blue can help you double your creative output? In IMAGINE: How Creativity Works, bestselling author Jonah Lehrer will share with us a sparkling and revealing look at the new science of creativity. Shattering many creativity myths, Jonah echoes one of ConsciousSHIFT's themes, that creativity is not a single “gift” possessed by the lucky few. It’s a variety of distinct thought processes that we can ALL learn to use more effectively.Julie Ann will explore with Jonah the importance of embracing the rut, thinking like a child, and daydreaming productively ... and then take us out of our own heads to show how we can make our neighborhoods more vibrant, our companies more productive, and our schools more effective.We’ll explore Bob Dylan’s writing habits and the drug addiction of poets ... consider bartender who thinks like a chemist, and an autistic surfer who invented an entirely new surfing move ... see why Elizabethan England experienced a creative explosion, and how Pixar designed its office space to get the most out of its talent.By collapsing the layers separating the neuron from the finished symphony, Jonah will help us see the deep inventiveness of the human mind, and its essential - and conscious - role it can play in navigating, and co-creating in, our increasingly complex world.Join Julie Ann as she interviews her guest on ConsciousSHIFT - Jonah Lehrer, author of IMAGINE, who is also a contributing editor at Wired and a frequent contributor to The New Yorker - to discover how YOU can cultivate YOUR creative genius!

Aired 04/08/12 Do you consider yourself to be creative? Do you think of creativity as a gift, a talent, something you either have or you don't? Do you find creativity to be a bit mystical or magical, dependent on luck, the muses, or higher powers? Today's guest, JONAH LEHRER, has written a book in which he looks at the latest brain science and attempts, in his words, "to collapse the layers of description separating the nerve cell from the finished symphony, the cortical circuit from the successful product." In Imagine: How Creativity Works, Lehrer makes clear, "Creativity shouldn't seem like something otherworldly. It shouldn't seem like a process reserved for artists or inventors or other "creative types." After all, he points out, the human mind has the creative impulse built into its operating system, hard-wired into its most essential programming code." Creativity is a variety of distinct thought processes that we can all learn to use more effectively. In the book, Lehrer reveals the importance of embracing the rut, thinking like a child, and daydreaming productively. He also shows how we can use this knowledge to make our neighborhoods more vibrant, our companies more productive, and our schools more effective. http://jonahlehrer.com

How can you embrace your own creative side and make your community more vibrant? Join us for a discussion into the deep inventiveness of the human mind, and its essential role in our increasingly complex world.
