The first thought many will have about the phrase “technology of creativity” is that creativity is not something that can be turned into a technology. It is beyond technology and to suggest there is a technology of creativity implies one does not understand creativity. I too once though in this manner, until I began to study creativity.

If one looks at the typical definition of technology it has four part or, rather, the word has four different but related uses. One part is that a technology is the theoretical knowledge of industry and the industrial arts. The theoretical knowledge is the science, theory or simply the way one thinks and believes, the belief structure, that lies behind doing or making something in the world. In particular the manufacture or production of something. A second definition is the application of science and of technical advances in industry, manufacturing, commerce and the arts. This definition talks about the application of the way one thinks and believes to do, or make, something. The third definition is that the word technology refers to the technical language of an art, or science. There is a language that goes with whatever we think and believe that lies behind what we make and in the world. In regards to the technology, the actual language chosen is not as important as the beliefs and understanding which the chosen language communicated. The fourth definition refers to the means by which material things are produced as in a particular civilization. Given any belief and understand, there is a way to apply that belief and understanding. The means of the application is also seen as the technology.

In summary, a technology is the application of a particular way thinking and believing and all that goes with the production and manufacturing to make some particular thing. So, the question is creativity something that can be a technology and is the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity understanding a technology?

A technology of creativity? (Top)

A technology is based on a particular way of thinking and believing. It is something that is based on fundamental concepts and principles that can be studied, learned and used for a specific application. If you look at some of the typical definitions of a technology, Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity is very much a technology and as much as it is a science and it is an art. A technology as normally understood is related to the means by which material things are produced as in a particular civilization. For example, the Ancient Egyptians had a technology of building pyramids. The Ancient Roman had a technology for building roads and aqueducts. Our world possesses the technologies of flight, computers and medicine in addition to being able to build pyramids, roads and aqueducts. Similarly there is the modern entertainment industry and all that goes with that industry can also be seen as technology of entertainment. You can learn all of these technologies if you choose to study the underling principles and concepts and then apply them in your life. The product of creativity is the experience you have and the reality that goes with that experience. All that goes with understanding who we do that is part of the technology of creativity.

If you look at what a technology is, it is the theoretical knowledge of an art, science, industry, commerce, manufacturing and the like. It is the language and terminology that goes with the theoretical knowledge. It is the application of that knowledge and the technical advances of a given area to produced whatever material things or experiences the particular technology produces. In this regard, to get the benefit of a technology you will have to apply what you learn and do some experiments with what you have learned. You will need to apply it to see if you understand it and to determine what is effective in your life to meet your needs. A technology is about application the theoretical knowledge.

Relative to creativity and the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity understanding and approach, their a theoretical knowledge. It is about energy and its relationship to consciousness and the creativity perspective and need to hold our creativity sacred.

So from the perspective of a technology Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity is a technology and there is no reason why you can’t learn the technology to become more consciously creative in your life. The only significant difference between the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity technology and other technologies is that the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity will help you to create a creativity ability to develop the skills, talents and technologies you need to create a particular type and kind of experience within, or of, the material world in addition to creating a specific type or kind of material creation

As a technology of creativity, the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity technology is something that can be learned, applied and improved upon. It is expected that you will improve upon what you learn as you apply this technology in your life. Rather than taking any of this material as the final word on the topic of creativity, it is recommended you make it your starting point building on it as you go and improve upon the technology as you use it and apply it in your own creative efforts.

Also, in addition to a technology, Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity may be seen as several things. It can been seen as a philosophy, a perspective on the nature of the universe, or even pure speculation unless of course, you experience it and what it has to offer. However, whatever you think it is you will need to realize it is a technology.

Some thoughts on exploring the technology of creativity (Top)

Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity is a technology in the sense it is based on defined and established principles. The defined and established principles are those of energy and its relationship to consciousness. In reality, there is nothing magical, mystical or mysterious about creativity, finding creative solutions or creating anything you desire. You simply need to understand a few essential principles and/or follow an established methodology about the creation process. It is here a seeming paradox exists.

Creativity is not so much something you learn as you would learn as a subject in a classroom. Nor is it something you do like playing baseball or flying an airplane. Rather it is something that you are or have to become. To be creative is to perceive reality differently and form outside the box mind creates. As such, because of the nature of mind and the role of mind in the creation process, a part of your being will need to change to become more creative and you will have to allow yourself to continue changing to maintain or expand your creative power and ability. In particular, as you will come to see, a part of what you think and believe will have to change.

Creativity is about improvisation and improvising with what is, as it is. It is being present to the moment to know which way to go for what you want to create when you have no logical way to know which way to go. It is about feeling a flow of energy and allows the energy to carry you where it may. It is the difference in playing a musical instrument according to a written sheet of music as compared to improvising and allowing the flow of the music you feel to carry you from one note to the next note whatever that next note may be.

Mind is the doorway. In the same way you can open or close a door, your can hold fixed to an idea or allow it to change and evolve. To become consciously creative to allow yourself to flow and act as necessary for a given situation, you will have to be free to play with what you think and believe in the spontaneous and innocent childlike play of discovery and exploration of the beliefs you hold. The role of mind is to set the intention and hold oneself accountable to that intention. Then step our of mind to align with the flow of energy created by that intention and adjusting what one thinks and believe to sit in alignment with the flow.

To many, this is a very frightening state for one is not in control but the flow of energy you feel leads you. To be in the flow is not something that can be rationally or logically explained to another. So to say, the Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity understanding and material are a technology based on defined and established principles seem to contradict the very nature of creativity. In part, this is true. Creativity takes you into the unknown. There is no logical way to prepare for the unknown for you do not know what you will face in the unknown. You can extrapolate or guess what you will face, but you really don’t know.

However, creation occurs within a process with relatively clear steps that can be characterized. So although you will not know what you face, you will know the process you face. In turn, knowing the process and how to influence that process gives you some level of control over the outcome. The Releasing Your Unlimited Creativity understanding and material help you to obtain the understanding to influence the creative process in which you will engage to create what you desire. Since learning to apply essential principles takes a greater time and effort than following an established methodology, a methodology in the form of fifteen steps or guidelines has been developed for your use. The methodology will guide you into your own creative powers through your intuition and then from that awareness, you can choose to go in whatever direction you choose. The recommendation is to use this methodology to become established in your creative powers and then go back and rebuild your foundation from first principles about the creation
