The Connection Between Creativity and Play

As I was preparing my lecture on new product development, innovation, and creativity, I checked out IDEO's website to see examples of the company's latest work. Anyone who is interested in creatively solving problems using principles of design and organization, combined with the social sciences should check out IDEO for future career possibilities - or inspiration.

From the website, I linked to Ted.com, which I've now added to my Delicious bookmarks . I've watched half of this talk by Tim Brown, one of the IDEO guys, talking about the connection between creativity and play. Check out the wooden huts in which Pixar's creatives work!

Rushing the Patser

When I was driving home from the train station last week, I noticed I was behind a tan sedan with a Massachusetts vanity license plate. It said: PATSQB. Anyhew, do you think it was Tom Brady? Somehow, I think not. Sure, it could be Matt Cassell, but really... would the back-up quarterback anoint his car? Maybe it's a QB married to Pat.

What do you do all day? All night? All weekend?

If you've been wondering where I've been, here's where. Building a blog, registering students, and preparing for a big event this week.
