We learned pretty much alot of things this week on creativity and innovation as well as novelty.
Normally people usually perceive creativity as something that is unusual and unique. That much is true, but it also has to appeal to the public in order for it to be trully called a creative work. An idea or a product is only creative if it is generally accepted by the public and society or in a way holds something of value for the society.
Innovation on the other hand is introducing something new. To me, innovation is more of upgrading, or perhaps to selectively change or improve parts of something in order for the object to be fully appreciated as a whole and to improve the lifestyle of the people.
Novelty is something more unheard of or less known. In fact, I too was only aware of this term and the meaning of it from this week's lecture. Novelty is an idea or something that is produced that is able to change or create changes in culture. For example, tha paper clip. Although most of us might not consider it to be a creative product now, the paper clip IS a novelty as it had create changes to culture.
The lecture was pretty interesting this week, and I hope next week would be as interesting as well! =)
