ingenuity is more concrete

Creativity is applied curiosity of an erudite person

can you solve this problem given limited resources?

studying postmodernism we had """clear""" definitions of originality v innovation

^^ this is also MOST indicitive of the odds of survival

When you know so much of how stuff work you can pull distant connections and apply methods from one specialised area to another

That is creativity in a nutshell

It never comes from a vaccuum of knowledge

originality is putting existing things in novel way, whilst innovation is expanding on the things to put i.e. changing the game entirely

well, there is a difference between knowledge and understanding

Yup

and then the third type is application

One is erudite, other is smart

Erudite knows facts and factoids. Smart applies them

intelligence is the ability to transfer understanding and knowledge to apply it

say writing has the element of innovation in that you *find* stuff nobody's seen before *elsewhere* but you use established forms and compositions to convey these found things in an understandable way

and to recognize when information can be applied and when it cannot be applied

this is the essence of judgement

i think smart should rule erudite

call me elitist but

Erudite librarians are needed too

they are needed

what is 'Erudite'?

how bout they just negotiate for their goals ;p

they shouldnt be put in charge tho

They are the ultimate organisers of society

ah

fucking marxists everywhere

>muh powerrrr

@ManAnimal erudite is a person that knows a lot of facts and factoids. Someone who can win a quiz show

Well read

welll, women do traditionally 'design' society but dictating what is moral and selecting mates based on that standard

ah, thanks @Uksio
