It uncovers, selects, reshuffles, combines, synthesizes already existing facts, skills, and ideas. That’s what Arthur Koestler, in his landmark book The Act of Creation, calls “bisociation,” a fancy word for putting existing ideas together to create something “original” – like linking the computer to telecommunication to create the internet. So the object is not something “New” but a new combination of existing elements. One of the founding fathers of information technology (and of Intel and miniaturization), Carver Mead claims to have never had an original idea.
