How to create new stuff

One way a lot of people tend to lose creativity as they age is that they get stuck on the world.
Think of what most people are offended by when they accuse someone of staring.
They see that you are out of the flow. Your eyes have become stuck.
But go ahead now and begins stuck.
Let your eyes freeze but don't stop there and don't let anyone stop you.
Now you must accept that you are not the one that is stuck.
The world is stuck and must move past your vision. Don't focus on the individual things moving past. Just focus on the big picture and how the moving things create lines in your vision.
This is your new reality. Now the world is only the sheet music on your page and your mind is the musical instrument.
Notice now that in the overall flow that at some places there are bottlenecks where many moving things come together.
These bottlenecks are great places to center your vision because you can learn much without moving your field of vision a lot.
Some of the bottlenecks will define maybe a traffic intersection while you are driving but now rather than seeing traffic you see lines appearing and disappearing, sometimes the lines cross and sometimes they agree. Here a line repeatedly turns into a screaming face and back into a line again. This is your new music and your new language.
Remember: you are the frame of reference. You are the page and the world is only the writing.
If you shout now or wave your arms then the things in your page will change.
The forms change and the music goes from slow song to Rock and Roll. Now you are in charge.
In the next scene you are standing on a ledge overlooking a small town, but your eyes are focused on the town-space and all you see is the movement. In one side of your vision is a loud stream of traffic. In another flashing lights and varying streams of pedestrian traffic.
All is moving at the center in payers and bursts. This center is another bottleneck and from it you realise that it is forming circuits in your vision: a whole new system. You speak a few words into a recorder describing it verbally as a network flow. Parts as robotic and others as cybernetic and some as unpredictable patterns of life. The whole is a new discovery and so you write down some code to simulate the new world you have glimpsed. Now the experience of your mind is permanent in the world and the world will not be the same.
Next you translate the motion into sound and put words to the patterns and what they describe. The repeated flashing becomes a beep, beep, boop. The shifting crowds becomes a crescendo of synthesized sound.
The sound patterns evolve as you fast-forward the memory of your experience in your mind.
Now you have a sound track to go with your new creation.
You may now go down into the town and state all you want as you give orders to your people.
Most people only give respect to those who prove to be original and creative and can not only stare but put in motion their world.
Getting stuck on reality is also staring.
At least now the world will not be staring back. Not if it knows what's good for it, and now that you are creating and giving orders you cone to realize that you have invented your own politics and culture. The world must move before your networks.
People can become gods of their worlds if they can give direction to what they see.
The network becomes the society and the society gives rise to a new civilization.
Other creators now join you and add in their own creations.
But wait! Now here we are back at Steemit and ready to repeat the loop. Have fun!
