  • Description
    In the picture, the author reflects on the formation of a creative personality. He divides this process into seven conditional stages: 0. Actually, the person himself, the author with natural gifts of creativity without the influence of school. 1. Primary education (study of the simplest primitives - cube, sphere, pyramid, etc.). 2. Higher professional education - mastering organic, living forms (trees, people, animals). 3. Rethinking and destruction of acquired knowledge. 4. Formation of a new personal unique paradigm, own system - construction. 5. Temptation by new technologies, use of computer tools in creativity ("Apple"). 6. Acquaintance and cooperation with Artificial Intelligence. 7. Return to the initial phase of the primary resources, to the original source.
    The whole process takes place in the plane of a separate personality, which finds itself in an unexplored 3-dimensional space.
