Tim Brown: Tales of creativity and play

Through this video we can learn and know more deeply about creativity and play.

When we hear "creative", one word that comes to our mind is "idea". A unique, wonderful, and new idea is what we need to become creative. of course to create a new idea we must have lots of experiences. Through experience, we can think much and do lots of things. Brave and confidence are what we need to gain more knowledge and experience in our life. But, for the introvert character, they tend to be more shy and exclude themselves from their surroundings. Most of those people especially for adults, they feel embarrassed with their own idea and afraid of judgements from their peers.
These problems cause people to become conservative to their own idea. Compared to children, when they are young, they happily show everything they did to other people without being embarrassed. Adults become more sensitive and emotional towards what other people think.

Playfulness is something that all people need and not only for children. Playfulness is important because it gives creative solutions and relieved all pressure that we have.

There are various ways on how people try to create physical objects. One of those is through building prototypes. All modern things that we used nowadays are from those prototypes. For example, computer mouse, nursing tools, etc. Besides physical objects, we can become a more creative people if we put ourselves into our own creation, called as role-play. By acting it out, we can know how it feels and what is happening. So, our design will be a successful project.

As conclusion, both playfulness and creativity have a great connection. Playfulness can be taught, but creativity is something that we need to learn and try to think out of the box.
