The Female Essence of Creativity can be found in the Earliest Creation Myths
Later, Creativity became the Preserve of (Male) Genius …
… Associated with ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Creativity, the Individual and Cosmology Early mythologies assumed creativity was a gift to  ‘ chosen ones’, individuals who were destined  to use the gift to celebrate the ultimate creator  of the Universe
Historically, Creativity operated within a Patronage System
Science, Modernism, and Rationality rejected Earlier Beliefs
But ‘Gifted’ Individuals are still  Highly Respected today .. … in many walks of life
Although sometimes, Genius is not Recognized … Edison was among  many great scientific  pioneers rated stupid at school. Would he have been dismissed today as having too low an IQ to amount to anything in life?
In the 20 th  Century, attempts were made to ‘tame’ Creativity.. Guilford Wallas Sid and Bea Parnes Koestler Eysenck
Structures to Assist Creativity were Developed Paul Torrance Alex Osborn Tony Buzan Edward De Bono Genrich Altshuller
Studies of Creativity in Teams and Organizations were carried out
Creative Leaders were identified
Creative Industries Emerged Today, creative industries, through their organizations are the fastest-growing economic sectors around the world. They include  Architecture; Arts & antiques; Design; Performing arts; Electronic games; and Multi- Media
Creativity is found in many and diverse Walks of Life
‘… But does it Work in Theory?’
So Many Theories … Insight theories  Self-actualization  Transcendence  Cognitive reframing Darwinism Information processing Problem-solving Experiential learning Intrinsic motivation
Today’s Knowledge Guides come from around the World Michael Kirton [Innovation styles] Teresa Amabile [Intrinsic motivation; contextual modelling] Ikujiro Nonaka [Knowledge creation]
Modernity itself has changed …
How Modernity forced yet more Creativity “ Painting is washed up.  Who will ever do anything  better than that propeller?” Marcel du Champs  [at an early exhibition of aviation Technology]
A Triumph of Serendipity “ I was modelling heat storage (wind power) … Intuition: One more stored quantity Insight: But heat leaks! Serendipity: Ignore boundary conditions …mix the deterministic and stochastic in a single equation ” Dr Syd Howell, University of Manchester (2008)
A Triumph of Creative Hope … “ So hope for a great sea-change On the far side of revenge. Believe that further shore Is reachable from here .” Seamas Heaney
Beyond the frontiers …
Creative Imperatives  Creativity will be even  More vital as we address  21 st  century imperatives  of human and  environmental Well-being
