2. session

2. session we looked at different tools to get the juices flowing, creatively :-)
We tried out "random word" witch was good for me, and combined with flickr.com it gives good gestalts of a theme.
The chosen theme of IDEO seems like a right angle for me, and I will talk to a friend who used to work for them in the US. (even try to get him to talk to the course)

After lunch we had Birger Sevaldson (Systematising Creative Computer Use)
as a guest lecturer, together we discussed creativity.
He claims that creativity is external, and that creative surroundings create creativity.
What i got out of this is that, man needs stimuli too be creative, unless you´r a genius/prodigy.
His best tip for me is to avoid the skimata/archetypes/typology.
