The Creativity Delusion (FULL): Brains, Geniuses and Originality

  • A 3-chapter documentary about the stories we tell ourselves around creativity. Using a plethora of studies from anthropology, psychology and neuroscience, the film tries to demystify the way we use our brains to create, to make art and science.
    The products of our minds are extraordinary, but the process in which they are brought about are in fact, quite ordinary. Shakespeare copied. Mozart copied. Picasso copied too. But we're still obsessed with originality.
    We're living in the most creative time in humanity's existence, so maybe it's time to rethink our preconceptions about creativity.

    There is a certain type of creativity that comes from hard work. However there is absolutely a creativity that comes from the "unconscious". It comes forward as though you're being possessed by a spirit and you have to surrender to it and let it have control to let it come through you. You can't think about it to much or it won't come out. I experience this often. It comes easier with experience and time doing it, because it is true obviously that with practice over time you can get better at anything

      There might be an unrecognized process where once you are good at something, when it becomes 'second nature', it is actually your confidence that unlocks access to that 'zone' where you just allow to happen. Surely also other ways to access it, but that might be a part of it. When we love what we do, it also comes with a certain confidence that what we do is enjoyable.
      More than once in my creative projects I eventually 'received help' to give it the final, crowning touch, as if it was someone else's contribution that surprised me very positively.
      There is also a somewhat related advice among writers, that you should create interesting characters and then just put them in challenging situations and explore what they do. If you can imagine that, you can (non-)do it. Your characters write themselves.

Those are inspired by random images on the web. I'm using my taste in art to see something that could be transformed into an artpiece, in the most mundane things.

Although the hard work comes in the form of extensive base knowledge and executing on ideas that come from the creative process. From my own perspective, it is a state of mind like daydreaming and letting the mind wander. When the mind is wandering are you guiding the wander or are you observing it? That begs the question what 'it' is that you are observing, I'd say I'm a fairly creative person and find creativity magical for sure, doesn't mean it's exclusive to some chosen few, rather the opposite. I liken creativity to being a spider in the middle of the web 'feeling' for the vibration of the fly (solution or idea) rather than actively thinking for what I want to know, because thinking in itself is limited but still necessary to confining the mind wandering so you don't get too off track.

      "Anyone can do this, but not everyone will." to me is a familiar indicator of trying to justify own sacrifice made in pursuit of something.
      Supporting conditions need to exist, and creating them is often not in our control. You can nag someone to learn making music and their music might sound like total shit because it is an expression of the clusterfudge of a life situation they are subjected to.
      There is a large cynicism in society where people capitalize on pain that coerces them into pursuing a creative career out of fear.
      Spirituality teaches toolsets for studying oneself from an outside view so that we see all these things and stop trying to propagate our own individual path as general rule. This can be scary because it can lead to very down-to-earth epiphanies.

    I liked the video a lot, it's very thought provoking and allowed me to question my own personal views on creativity and originality. Anything we do here will always be an imitation of life, especially nowadays since we don't live life anymore, we work to make a living, and we "entertain" ourselves when we're not working. This video may have ideas that you may not agree with, but I think its main purpose is to point to the things that hinder creativity, and to clarify that it's not reserved for a gifted few. All of us have the potential to build upon the existing world, and make something new. In today's society, I don't think originality should be the main focus of our endeavors, but whether it'll be good for us as a whole, or not, because we're in some muddy water right now.

    I would like to share my own personal experience of creating as a poet and artist myself. I almost never plan beforehand what I’m gonna write about, the feelings and sentences all come to me in one moment of inspiration. Now this work looks something like an unpolished diamond at first and we need to polish it. So in the second stage, after the foundation has been laid is when we apply our technical skills to the work in order to polish our diamond. These poems always turn out to be one of my best. On the other hand there are times when I would just sit down and try to force an original idea but it doesn’t work that way sadly. Those works are nothing in comparison to the ones that came to me in that one moment of spark. It doesn’t matter that I have all the skills to polish a perfect diamond when I don’t have a diamond to polish in the first place and that one idea, one moment of inspiration is the diamond.
    So from personal experience I disagree with this video essay.

      I feel the same way. Freestyling (improv rhyme and whatnot) doesn’t always yield the best results for me, but every now and then some verses seem to manifest in an instant that are absolutely coherent and relevant to a particular theme. I usually don’t catch it until listening to the playback when i record myself and sometimes im actually surprised/impressed by the impeccable cohesion of the content. Don’t get it twisted though, i’m not boasting or bragging; there’s a ton of garbage I’ve recorded over the years. For whatever reason every now and then I’ll churn out a diamond amongst turds. Maybe that’s just the result of repetition, but I’m still perplexed why it is that most times when the intention is “create” the product is rather clinical and the really cool stuff seems to emerge from a casual “non results-oriented” approach.
      Creativity or artistic ability is not limited to certain individuals in my opinion, but rather a universal capability or trait of humanity itself. It depends upon whether or not someone is afforded the opportunity and time to develop those abilities. This video might make some points, but upon deeper examination they appear quite arbitrary. Just my opinion after all, which is ultimately arbitrary in itself. I’m just wasting time with this comment…🫤

And this video essay is no exception. In his goal of demystifying pure originality, which, indeed, in reality does not exist ("there is nothing new under the sun"), it ends up simplifying and vulgarizing the process of creativity, which in itself is a complex system with multiplicity paths of holistic characteristics.

You're not intentionally looking for them, in fact you walk past them and you notice them in your vision from every angle. You lock it in your mind like "I know where they're at." Then crunch time hits and it's time to go somewhere and just now your terminator brain is on which makes you hyper sensitive to things not going your way, starting with these god damn keys. Something you've seemed to possess all this time somehow magically grown feet and casually walked away. The hyper focus almost always makes the room black out because you've could've sworn they were RIGHT HERE. Now you're late and your level of fucks given is depleted and you think "oh well." You sit to gather yourself to regroup. As you carelessly fall into your favorite chair you hear the sound of metal under your hand. And boom. There's the keys. Creativity is funny that way. Don't think about it just use the want to, to produce. And by proxy your intention will manifest. I think we think too much.

    If creativity is understood as conceiving the immaterial and rendering it material, then everyone with a box of crayons and a bare wall can be considered 'creative'. Where 'genius' enters the discussion is when what is conceived and rendered has some social significance -- a shift in understanding, a new mode of transport, a better mouse trap -- not a mention in the local paper vis-à-vis one's science fair volcano. Whether or not the individuals themselves are 'geniuses' or ever think of themselves as such (since many generally don't concern themselves with these matters), is neither here nor there, although IQ, more specifically g-factor, contributes greatly. Thurman did prove IQ wasn't a predictor, and to be sure, no great accomplishment comes without sweat equity, but accelerated processing, better memory, broader interests and skills, the general modus of the terminally curious means they can draw from a deeper and vaster pool of knowledge and experience (whether 1st or 3rd hand) to bear on a problem. What some read as intuition (Eureka) is little more than the mind cracking a safe by twiddling with the dials and listening for the tumblers -- connections and patterns, in this case -- requiring a kind of sustained attention not typical. Where truly innovative ideas originate, I suspect, is in connections drawn from widely disparate domains, relations not considered or attempted before. In short, the more you travel, read, relate with others, remain curious and observant, the more you explore various skills such as art, music, trades, and so on, the more you are able to incorporate into your problem solving, but all of these come at the cost of an investment in time, effort and motivation to mastery. Being seven feet tall doesn't presume one is good at basketball but 'predisposed?', yes, or at least advantaged in one important area, a head start, so to speak. Otherwise, it's a non-issue and the individual who applies themselves will always trump raw intelligence or talent in the broader scheme.

    Of course creativity exists. Creativity is simply seeing the underlying patterns and connections in reality - some people can see them, and some people can't. I don't know if you can teach yourself to see these patterns. I think it's got more to do with the brain you were born with.
    A "a-ha" moment is basically when you get a glimpse of the box cover of the jigsaw puzzle - you get a sudden flash of the "big picture". You still have to grind out the completion of the puzzle, but the flash gives you the motivation and the insight to complete it. I spent 10 years studying language but I never saw the big picture, i never had the flash. Then one day I began speaking words out loud and slowly rolling the words around my mouth. In an instant, it all became clear - everything fell into place and for the first time I saw the big picture, I saw how everything I learned was all connected - I knew where I needed to go and what I needed to learn.
    Instead of having lots of little islands of knowledge, I saw the full map, I saw all the connections between all the islands. This is why I fundamentally disgaree with this video - I had exactly the same knowledge before my flash than after, yet my knowledge of the subject was radically different. Someone else could have all the knowledge I have but without seeing the big picture, it's just not the same. It's not about the details, it's about seeing the big picture - some people are born with the ability to see the full map, others can only see little bits of it.

The point of debunking inspiration wasn't to debunk its existence, but rather to debunk our perception of its source. Inspiration doesn't come from thin air, it comes from our unconscious, which is formed by the lives we live, or technically, the lives we don't live.

    Sorry this is short sighted and assumes too much about how and what everyone thinks about things. It's not just one way, sometimes great ideas are received in an instant, sometimes they result from thinking about a problem for a while. Of course hard work helps to improve things but it's also reasonable to say some people, no matter how much hard work they do, still won't have great ideas.

    I support most of what is said here, however I have experienced unconscious processing of ideas myself many times. Whether an idea comes from internalised resources or from personal additions to external stimulation a moment of realisation can seem like a sudden understanding without scaffolding our learning. Furthermore, I have witnessed unconscious plagiarism where the subject believes the idea is their own but eventually it is proven that s/he has seen it elswhere and forgot the witnessing. Claiming the ownership of an innovative idea knowing that it is not ones own is theft.

    Clearly this video is advocating "stealing and copying" as the biggest contributing factor to the works of prominent artists and musicians like Michael Angelo, Mozart and Da Vinci which is a false exaggeration. These artists had never copy-pasted previous material ditto same without adding personal inputs (called "Creativity") to the body of work. In most cases only a small motif or essence of the whole original was reproduced. We not talking about wannabes and content copycats which still exist in our time and are undeniably putting in no work or distinctive elements into their content. Speaking of the great artists and musicians mentioned in this video, most of their work stands as a signature body of work and gives them a unique identity and an identifiable style. Mozart may have learned opera from the Italians (who didn't) but to discredit his Piano Concerto repertoire is a huge bias. Handel was mostly isolated from Bach's work when he wrote his own fugues. It would be highly biased, uninformed and too generalized claim to say that a significant portion of the works of all so-called great artists in human history was essentially unoriginal copied material.

      Very good assessment of this. Before the Internet, and even television, radio, global connectivity and transportation, it was vastly more difficult to borrow, modify, re-formulate and re-appropriate new ideas in science, philosophy, literature, art, and music. The iconic work of early masters deserves recognition as truly embodying creative genius.
      But now….now that is not possible. Very little is truly unique, and what rarely is so, quickly becomes assimilated and cliche. Idiots now have access to a universe of knowledge and ideas, and U$E a power they cannot appreciate fully.

    Completely, not true. But, even if it were true... Why would anyone be interested, save a few loved ones, in the art, or expressions, of someone with a lame world view, or a short sighted one, or a mundane, uninterested view of he world?
    The art that captures our attention, and integrates into the fabric of who we are, is the art, expression, of people who see what others do not. Great art makes everyone see it.
    One idea, imo, you have correct. The idea that creativity is in all of us, and a part of all of us. But, the people labeled 'genius', are superior thinkers in every way.
    * that is just one cultural list, the technical list is IQ, which are people who have proven themselves in testing, to be superior thinkers, every time, and remain consistently so, throughout, their lifetime. You report just flat out fabricates statistics. And the whole race, and eugenics narrative is ridiculous and might qualify as hate speech.
    You know what is ironic, I'm not sure about this, but I believe dark skinned Africans, and specific communities in Africa, have the highest IQ averages. Regardless, geniuses occur in any culture, it is simply a classification named by the scientist who created the IQ. It was the name given to the highest scoring classification. He chose it, bevcause it was already in use in ancient Rome, as a guardian angel, which in usage became associated with people who's 'genie', genius, seemed to give them special knowledge, because there was no explanation for why they should have such knowledge.
    ANd, that's pretty much how that scientist described it, paraphrasing, 'These peopleseem to be able to access knowledge at a different level that others cannot. There is seemingly no nexplanation for how they know certain things, but they do." Now, I'm not going to defend that definition, as accurate as it needs to be, and definitely could be improved on, but, it is closer than whatever gobbledygook you spew out here. Honestly, the brainwashing gets more obvious every day. Shameful.

    You are talking about knowledge not genius. Work to gain knowledge and understanding of what is useful then incubate and allow enough of your minds direction to become focused (by effective focusing) on something new and useful with the extra knowledge you have gained by study. The difference between madness and genius is the usefulness (or rather perceived usefulness) of the new recipe with the various groups of information you have learned from others or from observation and experimentation. Insight is not a checklist it is the ability to apply wisdom to ones thoughts and actions helpfully. There is an anti prejudice bias to this video which is un-scientific. Yes a lot of nationalism and racial territoriality and competitiveness has been brought into these sciences of genius, creating biases, but much of those early sciences of genius that were not completely biased by prejudice and fad were on some of the right tracks in refining the art of refinement. I admit that It is also true that genius sometimes occurs outside ideal conditions, (ideal as in the ideal conditions of aristocratic scientists dedicated to the new science who could afford to spend all their time at it) but what knowledge had that being, whose spontaneous genius occurred outside the ideal conditions, observed and what did they focus on in their time thinking subconsciously or otherwise? Work and work ethic is the killer of genius and lifestyle, no matter how many soft cushions you think you need. If only we had better than a monetary system and that we all had the motivation to better the world for all species, not just our own.
