- Summary:
- In this publication, pure creativity techniques are elucidated in connection with artefacts that are as far as possible non-utilitarian and free of associations. In the taut arc spanning the gap between the rigid and inanimate and the animate and mobile, a systematic methodology is presented for breaking out of the usual creativity patterns. The moment of creativity is analysed in rational terms so that those seeking inspiration are provided with a step-by-step procedure for generating object ideas in case they have been looking for it in vain.
