Hello, I'm Roy Sharples, welcome to the Unknown Origins podcast. Why are you listening to this podcast? Are you seeking inspiration? An industry expert looking for insights, or growing your career, I created the unknown origins podcast to provide access to insights and content from creators worldwide with inspirational conversations and storytelling, about art, architecture, design, entrepreneurship, fashion, film, music, and pop culture. I founded unknown origins, a creative design studio on a mission to save the world from on originality by unleashing creative power. I am the author of creativity without frontiers, how to make the invisible visible by lighting the way into the future curator of the community driven storytelling platform that provides the creative industry access to insights and content from creators worldwide. Today, I provide an overview of my inaugural book, "Creativity Without Frontiers", how to make the invisible visible by lighting the way into the future. I write about creativity as a way of living and provide insights on what this book is, why it matters, its contents, and where to get it. Since the first human crawled deep into a cave to make art, creativity has flourished among rebels and risk takers, Mavericks and visionaries. However, if creativity thrives among outsiders, how can it be nurtured inside large organizations? How can one build a team that works together to solve real problems? while leaving room for individual inspiration? How can one ignite the creative spark without burning down the building? I draw on decades of experience at the vanguard of business innovation, and having a deep affinity for applying an artistic instinct to explore these questions, offering novel solutions. Building on a broad survey of the Misfits who define the modern world, from data to Ilan Musk, and by hers to acid house, I explore what makes the creative main tick. I also examined the conditions that nourish creativity in an organizations of all sizes, from artists, to corporations to civilizations. The result is a manifesto for harnessing inspiration, and unleashing the creative power we all have inside of us. The book consists of seven chapters. Chapter 1 Philosophy in the Bedroom What creativity is, why it matters, and what difference it makes. aspire to be as great as the things that are influencing you. Aim not to be like them, but to be as influential by defining your own unique structure and style. constraints, barriers, principles, and standards are critical to expressing yourself through what you are, what you are not, and appreciating the differences. Chapter 2 The Modernists, Mavericks and Misfits True artists are always outsiders looking in rebels with a cause themselves. They provide something new to the world that we live in overturning the status quo. By positively impacting people's lives, and moving society forward.
