Everyday creativity: Our hidden potential.

Richards, Ruth

Pages: 25 –53

If most people know intuitively what their everyday creativity is, then why does our creativity not get more attention? Are we just so accustomed to it that our everyday creativity provides a backdrop whose presence is assumed and then quickly forgotten? This chapter suggests there is even more...

Living well creatively: What's chaos got to do with it?

Schuldberg, David

Pages: 55 –73

Living creatively is an intrinsic part of everyday life, a core component of living well. In this chapter, the term creativity means coming up with solutions to life's problems, solutions that are both novel and useful. Sometimes the problem is an aesthetic one--in which case the result is...

Artist and audience: Everyday creativity and visual art.

Zausner, Tobi

Pages: 75 –89

Tobi Zausner looks at healing and creativity from the dual perspective of making visual art and viewing it. Art making has often helped people heal, and at times it has even changed lives. Zausner shows this for Henri Matisse, Albert Pinkham Ryder, and Maud Lewis. Matisse, for example, found art...

To understand is to create: An epistemological perspective on human nature and personal creativity.

Runco, Mark A.

Pages: 91 –107

Personal creativity requires discretion (deciding when to construct original interpretations and when to conform instead) and intentions (which reflect the values that motivate creative efforts) as well as the capacity to construct original interpretations of experience. This chapter examines...

Audience flow: Creativity in television watching with applications to teletherapy.

Pritzker, Steven R.

Pages: 109 –129

This chapter begins with a review of the negative and positive effects of television viewing. The concept of active versus passive viewing is discussed along with suggestions of how to explore the phenomenon of positive audience flow in therapeutic situations. The new concept of teletherapy is...

Structures of consciousness and creativity: Opening the doors of perception.

Combs, Allan; Krippner, Stanley

Pages: 131 –149

Few people imagine that our everyday human experience is dependent on "structures of consciousness." Whereas the play of unalloyed consciousness is said to be "pure creativity," in ordinary life it is often profoundly more limited. Particular "structures" of consciousness act like colored lenses...

Telling the new story: Darwin, evolution, and creativity versus conformity in science.

Loye, David

Pages: 153 –173

For a century, many of psychology's great founders and innovators, in keeping with Darwin's long-ignored full theory of evolution have struggled to build a humanistic, moral, and action-oriented theory of evolution. Darwin not only had much more to say about evolutionary motivation at the human...

Standing up for humanity: Upright body, creative instability, and spiritual balance.

Arons, Mike

Pages: 175 –193

The term originality implicates two opposing yet paradoxically related vectors: to the origins and to the new and unique. Perhaps one new view of human nature and its transformative creative spirit comes from reflection on our species' oldest distinguishing mark: the biped upright body posture....
LitStream

Creativity in the everyday: Culture, self, and emotions.

Sundararajan, Louise; Averill, James R.

Pages: 195 –220

Nothing is more everyday than emotion, and nothing seemingly less creative. Yet, creativity in the domain of emotion, both eminent and everyday, is the topic of this chapter. As in other domains of creativity, a creative response must be effective in meeting some challenge or standard of...
LitStream

A "knowledge ecology" view of creativity: How integral science recasts collective creativity as a basis of large-scale learning.

Goerner, S. J.

Pages: 221 –239

Human beings survive by learning, that is, by communicating, pooling insights, preserving the lessons of the past, and creatively transcending current limits. Yet, sometimes we mistake our dominant mental map for the terrain of reality. Those societies that enforce old ways after they have proven...
