- In his 2024-11-14 newsletter, Clear, James lists this as “the creative process”:
- Discover - Read a lot. Observe the world. Notice.
- Collect - Immediately record anything that strikes you.
- Generate - Build on your notes to brainstorm lots of ideas.
- Combine - Connect previously unconnected ideas.
- Refine - Edit, edit, edit. Select the best.
- This bridges some ideas around creativity, like {6.4a} idea sex and building an {6.5a1} antilibrary, with ideas around PKM like Forte, Tiago’s knowledge lifecycle.
- Working with knowledge is a creative process.
- PKM is creativity – it’s finding and working with information to create something new.
