Creative Environments

    Welcome to the Creative Environments Web Site. However you found your way to this site, you have come to the right place if you have an interest in how the environment effects creative behavior. This site serves several purposes. It acts as a means by which I can communicate the knowledge which I have learned, based on research, about the topic. It acts as a means by which others can learn. It is a permanent donation to the internet community. And, it is a method of running an experiment which may lead to a better understanding of the topic. The experiment is interactive. You can participate in it, helping me to gather valuable data.
    This site is structured so that there are two main sections.  The first section contains a series of pages which define what I mean by creativity and the creative environment and then discuss three main aspects an individual's environment that effect creativity.  The second section implements the experiment mentioned earlier.
