“To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk.” - Thomas Edison
Lately, the subject of innovation has been on my mind. There are an seemingly limitless number of quotes on the subject, ranging from Steve Jobs to Albert Einstein, and beyond. An endless sea of scrolling in the internet era, assertively telling us what innovation is and isn’t.
It intrigues me why there should be such a never-ending commentary on the subject. I’m sure that a great deal of it has to do with creatives having explain themselves and their methods to those with more rigid mentalities over the course of human history.
