Creativity + Conflict Resolution: A Leadership Development Workshop with Guila Clara Kessous. At the Boston University Castle. Thursday, April 28, 2016.
An exhibition showing the intellectual property (IP) behind Steve Jobs’ innovations opened to the public at WIPO on March 30, 2012 and will run through to World Intellectual Property Day on April 26, 2012. The exhibition ties in with this year’s World Intellectual Property Day theme – Visionary Innovators.
The Patents and Trademarks of Steve Jobs: Art and Technology that Changed the World is located in the atrium of the new WIPO building and is open to the public from 9.00am through 6pm. It features over 300 of the patents that bear Steve Jobs name along with many of Apple’s trademarks. The exhibition is co-organized by WIPO and the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and supported by the U.S. Mission to the United Nations in Geneva.
The exhibit was created and designed by Invent Now, Inc., a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering invention and creativity through its many programs and which runs the National Inventors Hall of Fame and Museum on the USPTO campus in Alexandria, Virginia.
Opening the exhibition, WIPO Director General Francis Gurry hailed Jobs as "one of the most influential technology thinkers and actors of his generation.”
Ambassador Betty E. King, U.S. Representative to the United Nations in Geneva, said the exhibit was an "opportunity to see how Steve Jobs, at the helm of Apple, acted upon his vision, and in doing so shaped the means by which our world functions and communicates on a daily basis.”
The exhibit, with its iconic panels in the form of iPhones, was first shown in the lobby of the U.S. PTO Office shortly after Job's death, recalled Teresa Stanek Rea, Deputy Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Deputy Director United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Leaving the PTO office late at night, Stanek Rea said she would often find the PTO lobby full of people gazing at the patents. Steve Job's brilliance was in the marriage of design to function, she said, citing the innovator's famous words: “Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.”

Ultimate Builder MOD Harley Class
It was touch and go for Chris Richardson of LA Speed Shop as he had finished his build in the early morning hours of the show. Since the clear was still wet, he rolled it in on Saturday morning; a significant disadvantage in the judged competition.
Richardson had an idea for a Bagger (LA Speed Shop style).He takes elements from his bobber style and combined it with a fairing and hard bag to deliver an exceptional low-slung and skinny Bagger. The bike features a 3 inch stretch in the rear, hand-made custom saddle bags, fairing, oil tank, gas tank, exhaust, narrowed rear fender and narrowed springer front end.

If you're going to try and put people of drugs, I don't think this is the page to do it. Some of the finest art and music has been created under the influence of drugs. I don't think they ruin creativity.

Creativity is a phenomenon whereby something new and somehow valuable is formed. The created item may be intangible (such as an idea, a scientific theory, a musical composition, or a joke) or a physical object (such as an invention, a literary work, or a painting).
Scholarly interest in creativity is found in a number of disciplines, primarily psychology, business studies, and cognitive science, but also education, technology, engineering, philosophy (particularly philosophy of science), theology, sociology, linguistics, and economics, covering the relations between creativity and general intelligence, personality type, mental and neural processes, mental health, or artificial intelligence; the potential for fostering creativity through education and training; the fostering of creativity for national economic benefit, and the application of creative resources to improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning.
The English word creativity comes from the Latin term creare, "to create, make": its derivational suffixes also come from Latin. The word "create" appeared in English as early as the 14th century, notably in Chaucer, to indicate divine creation (in The Parson's Tale])
However, its modern meaning as an act of human creation did not emerge until after the Enlightenment.

This is the "source code" of the PoIC manual. It is about 100 pages of A4 papers now. This is a results of the PoIC system, in other words, accumulation of individual index cards. :)
Last fall, a friend of mine did a special scrapbook and she had to come up with words or ideas to describe herself for each letter of the alphabet. Since it's always good to exercise your creative side, I thought it would be great to do it here on the blog.
