Why Are We Not Creative

In his “Why Are You Creative“ project, director and author Hermann Vaske explores these questions in conversations with some of the greatest artists, activists and thinkers of our time. Together they seek out and identify not only creativity’s critical stimuli – Spirituality, Sex, Money, Fear, Nurture and Ambition – but also the killers of creativity – Censorship, Self-Censorship, Bureaucracy, Compromise, Distraction and the Gatekeepers – the oppositional forces that act as beta-blockers to creative energy. It’s an existential clash between creativity’s angels and its demons. The assassins of creativity are many and they lurk everywhere.

7 trends designers should know for 2021

We found, too, that designers and their collaborators were at the epicenter of the year’s essential technological infrastructure and rapid digital transformation. For this reason, the digital product space has had a unique vantage point in the year’s biggest universal shifts. We also realized this community offers some of the most tangible opportunities to make a material impact as we forge ahead. It didn’t make sense to distill all that change and nuance into a 1,000 word article. So, instead, we decided to put together a report that really dove into these topics.

7 Deadly Sins of Data Visualization 

People can more or less handle even percentages: full circle = 100%, half a circle = 50%, a quarter = 25%, and three-thirds = 75%. But what if a circle ends somewhere between the “half” and “three-thirds” — like the green one on the picture? How quickly can you calculate 50 + 25 ÷ 2 and assume it should be around 62.5%?If you have only one circle, you can put a percentage number in the middle, but what if the widget contains three circles?
