(3) Voyage to Laputa

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.
