A Radically Different Take on Creativity



I can't say that I completely agree with this take on creativity, yet I found it so utterly moving that by the end of the video I had tears in my eyes. I have watched so many polished speakers and performers that I was quiet surprised at how someone speaking so earnestly with all the "um's" and "uh's" of a conversation, could keep me riveted to the screen and drive home a brilliant idea with absolutely no guile. Whether you think of yourself as creative or not, it's well worth the 20 minutes out of you life, but then I've yet to find a TED video that isn't.
