how to be creative

I suppose all that was said is only a theory and not really proven.

Don't listen nor view this video!! I believe it's design to make you less creative. The scattering of the voice is there to put cracks in your creative juices. If you don't believe me then just listen and watch the video again and notice it's effects on your creative juices. Are you less or more creative after watching and listening to this video? Notice the effects. Please comment.

Hahahahahahaha =D lol'd

The content of this video is inspiring, i really enjoyed it. The voice is so annoying though! it would have been just as effective, or more so, to have a clear voice speaking.

For every great creative mind you can think of that was completely sober there are easily ten who were not. There is a coralation between creative thinkers and substance abusers. I also know a crap load of drunks and drug users who can't create crap.

I do not agree with the message of the vid. Drugs really can make people more creative - they tend to have rather creative visions then :]
So ... this vid lies.

People on drugs are having creative visions in their mind but in reality they fell asleep in a dumpster while looking for a slice of pizza to eat. That is useless time spent blacked out they could have spent this time painting. Real good art comes from practicing the technique not from sleeping in dumpsters. Drugs make artist lazy, burned out and weaken their motor skill which are important for expressing their thoughts on paper.

I don't want to get things confused. Taking drugs isn't creative... such as staring at the pizza, but what is creative: your visions. they are creative and that's the point. If you weren't dizzy for dsome time you won't have such unnatural an creative visions. And well ... many genal artist were on drugs while composing. ... so there must be something in them ;)

Creative people who also take drugs can create wonderful art. People who aren't creative who take drugs to be creative are just drug-addled delusionals

I agree... but about that second case you gave: cannot we say than that drugs may make people creative? :)
