creativity is critical and found in every human endevour and pursuit.
In modern science however it is corporately avoided like the plague.
The typical modern scientist is not like those that came before him/her.
There are exceptions of course - like my friend Robert, but they are far and few in between.
(its also creeping into traditional art forms such as music, which inherently thrive on creative inputs and outputs. Corporatised jingles and crap all over the place - where are the musical innovators? The concept albums? Music with something to profound to say that could transform the way people, and in particular the youth of the world view this deranged world? Where is it Chochawker?)
