Recommendation

Creative block is a frustrating condition from which even the most innovative minds occasionally suffer. If some physical or mental barrier is impeding your idea-generation process, allow Saba Ghole to help you get your creative juices flowing. Ghole – chief creative officer at NuVu Studio, an innovation center for teenagers – compiles a list of best practices in creativity. Her colorful, diverse examples, which she presents with humor, will inspire those stuck in the deepest caverns of unoriginality. Though some of Ghole’s points may already be familiar, her lessons are worth revisiting. getAbstract recommends Ghole’s presentation to educators, as well as to artists and innovators.

Take-Aways

  • NuVu, an innovation studio for middle and high school students, employs three tactics to nurture participants’ beginner’s minds.
  • First, NuVu fosters the “cross-pollination of ideas” by pairing veterans with rookies, by combining disparate themes and by repurposing existing items for new functions.
