The Creativity Crisis....

Oct 06, 2010 15:10

My dad came to the US (continental US) after 20 years... He used to travel here (the US) in the late 70s & early 80s. He was here in DC for both work and pleasure.  So, we asked him what differences he has seen since then. He felt that things have changed as places usually do. He landed in a whole new airport as opposed to the National Reagan Airport but the biggest thing he has seen over the years is the loss of creative ideas that would come from the US (relating to his work). It was a place where people looked to for solving problems. Now, it's not so much. Some reason mediocrity is accepted and they are just living in past glory.

Interesting.

Today N brought home this article (great article to read to your baby if she/he is having trouble napping - D is fast asleep!!) - The Creativity Crisis.

And now I understand my dad better. All those years he would drive us mad by turning the question around and asking us to figure out the answers.

dad, news
