What is Creativity?
summary

Relies on Margaret Bowden’s definition and highlights the tension between novelty and usefulness, noting creativity remains partly mysterious. Offers a practical frame for judging outcomes rather than vague praise and prompts looking for specific evidence of surprise and value in any creative claim.
