#4: Creativity

We often think of creativity as related to the arts—painters, writers, musicians, dancers – but creativity is also defined as simply "the ability to make new things or think of new ideas." And did we hear amazing new solutions to many questions we hadn't even thought to ask, such as How can you capture sound from the invisible (to the human eye) sonar vibrations in a silent video? How can you grow biological "clothing"? Creativity then is coming up with new solutions to existing problems, or even identifying problems to solve no one has else has yet noted. We were reminded that "it's just that way" is never the right answer. We were reminded to dig deep and think hard.
