WEEK 2 - Creativity, novelty, innovation

Novelty can be defined as the quality of being new. It can be something new and unusual that we haven’t seen before, or something makes us feel fresh and special. Novelty is very important in design and art. It needs creativity when applying in every design.

Innovation is the introduction of something new, a change effected by innovating or a change in customs. Innovation also can be defined as a new way of doing something or “new stuff that is made useful”. It may refer to incremental and emergent or radical and revolutionary changes in thinking, products, processes, or organizations. (sources from Wikipedia.com)

Arts, economics, government policy and many other fields, something new, fresh or special must be substantially different to be innovative. The purpose of innovation is positive to become different, to make someone or something better. Innovation is very important in design and art too.

Invention is the act of inventing, or to make up, think of and produce for the first time. An invention is a new composition, device, or a highly creative process. It may be obtained from a pre-existing model, idea or concept. Inventive thinking has always played a greatest importance role in the creative process, so that the inventors should think outside of the box to create and invent a new thing.
