Creativity and Innovation Archives

The articles and papers in these archives were been written between 1996 and 2013, with most of them from the eight year period of 2004-2012. Over the years of working with, studying and writing about creativity and innovation, I leaned a great deal about the subject. Not surprisingly, I learned that much of what I wrote about years ago is no longer valid (in February, 2013, as I write this). For instance, I used to be a strong proponent of brainstorming. Now, I realise that it is not a very good way to generate creative ideas (this is part of why I developed anticonventional thinking or ACT). Rather than sift through, update and delete old articles, some of which people still find useful, I have taken the lazy-person's approach. I have archived all of my writings from the period. Current writings, together with a very few favourites from older days, are now in the Thoughts section of the web site.

Because these are archived, they may be out of date, wrong and include bad links. I apologise for that. Of course, a lot of the articles are also valid and up to date. I don't apologise for that!
