I think that creativity is the ability to think with reference to few or no outside influences.

Andrew said...

very good, Nick. and anyone can be creative if they try

Mikayla Picott said...

Creativity is the ability to allow self expression freely and openly without concern of discrimination or judgement. Everyone deserves to be creative.

Emma Murphy said...

In my opinion Nick is spot on!

I agree with Mikayla, but I think you can be creative and be concerned with discrimination and judgement towards what you are doing.

Creativity is a process of using your imagination to form ideas and concepts. And, I think that everyone is creative in their own way.

I agree with Nick! I think that creativity is the ability to come up with original ideas.

i totally agree with Mikayla. creativity, to me, takes a lot of courage because when you create, you stand out in the crowd. however, i don't think there is a end-all definition for what or who is creative. to make art you have to be creative and art, for me, doesn't have a specific definition.

Is there ever a place for judgement when talking about creativity?

What IS an original idea? What does that even mean?...

Why does one that creates stand out in a crowd???

i think someone who creates stands out in a crowd because though everyone has the ability to be creative, only a handful put that ability to use.
