mentality 04

One of the creativity’s enemies is the attitude of acceptance the world as it's given. Sometimes, it's amazing when we only change (literally) our point of view, it changes our world (at least how we saw it). One of creativity’s enjoyable is the ability to reframe the world, to have an impact.
 
When we were young, at school we usually stay all year at the same position in a classroom. And one day, maybe we were noisy too much and the teacher asked us to move to another place. And it's incredible how much this simple incident, can provoke a total new perspective about the way we see the classroom (which was our world).

Speaking about school, it's interesting to see, early in the nursery school, how most of children color the sun in... yellow. Actually, the colour of the sun light is white. So, "someone" said the sun's color is yellow and no one raises the question anymore.
 
Sounds to be off-topic but, when we see an orange which is orange. Actually, the orange itself is not orange. The orange’s color is "created" in our eyes by 3 kinds of cones (specialized receptors). So where's the color? The alternative answer is: colors aren't "on" objects. Colors are in our eyes. That's why in the movie "Predator", from it's POV, we "see" the world with different colors. So what's the point? The point is asking ourselves questions, especially about things which are obvious, may leads us to new territory, new way of thinking, new way of how we see the world. And in this case, it leads to the truth.
