Samenvatting
The series provides a mirror; it questions our routine ways of looking and interpreting the world. In an all-consuming landscape of social media, impressions and opinions, it is wise to take some time to listen silently to your own talents and ideas.
In Lilliput the focus is on opening the mind, detecting frames and filters that so easily put us on the wrong footing. A world behind the façade and so full of possibilities.
Creativity is a leap of faith over imagined walls. There is the intuitive knowledge that it can be done differently and maybe better. To successfully explore the unknown means being prepared for the unexpected. This may sound paradoxical, and 'yes' that is one of the most endearing aspects of creativity: it may open doors to unexpected possibilities and then again it may be a dead end. You need courage to dare to fail. Opportunities do not just fall from the air: even serendipity comes only to those who have an open mind.
No doubt you'll find inspiration in the footsteps of Gulliver and become aware of unknown creative powers. And see the invisible boundaries that have kept you from exploring the rich world beyond your horizon.
Over Hans Kokhuis
Hans Kokhuis [retired but not tired] is the author of several books on creative thinking. The satire Gulliver's Travels inspired him for 6 voyages into creativity. The series is the reflection of over 30 years of teaching creativity. Every book in the series explores a particular aspect and are both practical and inspirational. Creativity is a potent force, provided you manage to overcome the paradox of education. Too many are taught scripts that make us mindless and give a false sense of control. The series creativity explored is about how to de-school and connect to your own creative talents. When known solutions do not work anymore, you need ideas. And these are found in the non-binary space between ‘right/wrong’, rather than in accepted procedures. Algorithms don't help creativity, they create uniformity, the statistical average. Exploring your personal creativity will make your life worthwhile and a one-time experience, with lifelines instead of deadlines. And based on a simple process: (1 SH) orientation, (2 I) generating ideas, incubation and illumination, followed by (3 T) verification, and finally (4 E) implementation. Basic because it is SH-I-T-E.
