Four years ago,
Dr. Nancy C. Andreasen (female neuroscientist and neuropsychiatrist in USA) took the book entitled "Creative Brain: Dean's Neuroscience" with great curiosity. This book has given me so much information and awareness ...
So I thought that you Filipino readers would be interested too, and I made some quotations from the book. But you should read the entire recommendation book, for it is a great loss to be superficial about such a book.
The main topics of the book are: how the creative process takes place, under what circumstances, what this process affects and neural events in the creative process.
Some parts of the book; Mozart, Shakespeare, Leonardo Da Vinci, Samuel Taylor, Coleridge, Poincare and Tarihe, who have been involved in creative processes and how they think creatively.
I picked up the parts I chose from the works in four separate articles.
In this article, while citing the section "What is creativity?" Which defines creativity, in the other two articles;
Samuel Taylor Coleridge's famous work "Kubilay Han" poetry related to the part examined "Looking for Xanadu" section,
Mozart and Poincare describe how they reach creativity from their mouths, such as "The Neural Base of Extraordinary Creativity"
I cited the chapter on "Genius and Madness" which refers to the cognitive situations in which the historians who are mentally ill and their producers live.
In short, you will find this review under 4 headings in a font;
Creative Brain: Dean's Neuroscience
A Genius in the Light of Neuroscience - The Secret behind Kubilay Khan's Poetry
Neural Foundation of Unusual Creativity
Genius and Madness; Secret Diseases of Creative Brains
Let's open the curtain with the title "What is Creativity?"
What is Creativity?
We can define and conceptualize creativity in many ways. Border issues, like the distinction between intelligence and creativity, must also be considered. The terms "genius", "talent", "God's tax" and "creativity" are used synonymously in both everyday and historical texts. There are also border problems among the specialization areas. We feel the preconceived notion that creativity can only exist in art and social sciences-in literature, music, dance and visual arts-both in popular culture and in research work. Biology, mathematics, physics, chemistry, geology and engineering disciplines such as the need to be absolutely not mentioned. There is also a decision maker problem. Who decides that a creative product is not really unique, or is it not really strange or individual-specific, but really creative?
Interest in creativity among psychologists is revived.
... .. One of the basic components of creativity is originality. New relationships, perspectives, ways of describing include intuition, creativity. These new relationships can be discovered in nature and expressed in new natural laws or in a product such as novels and poetry.
A second component of creativity, with the broadest definition of utility, is utility. For example, it is possible to think of something new, like a car without wheels (I do not agree with the example of the author here, because if you intend to build a car without wheels, you can bring the benefit that it has to what you think). The benefit lies in the fact that, first of all, it creates new emotions, creates inspiration, or creates a mixed feeling of admiration with fear that the human mind / brain can reach.
If creativity is the last component, then it is necessary to put out a kind of product. I mean, creativity requires the creation of something. It is useful to think that creativity is composed of three components. Creativity begins with individuality. Then this individual, during a creative cognitive process, deals with a problem or asks a good question or seeks a new way of thinking and conceptualization. What is in this process is a fascinating subject for cognitive neurosis. When the process is completed - there is a product in it - the problem is resolved, the problem is found and the work is finished. Individual, process, product. These components may come together in a linear, iterative or mysterious manner.
It is one of the fascinating questions that the human brain must pass through from a creative process to creating a sonnet, song or equation. The answer to this question would be to explain how we can come to a world that starts from our hunchbacks and hairy ancestors before history, illuminates the dark caves, and shines with the light of the creative dean.
