The Source of Creativity: The Inner-God as Knowledge Making

Abstract

I map out the creative journey that starts with inner observation, so called muse, and culminates with knowledge. I review peak-experiences, as described by visionary artists, looking at three steps: inner observation, elusive memory, and thought-making. I will then share a practical method that helps ‘capture’ self-knowledge by simplifying ideas into key-words and communicating them in a concise way.
