Where Good Ideas Come From

Where Good Ideas Come From Christian24 Sep ‘10

This is a trailer for the book “Where Good Ideas Come From” by Steven Johnson¹.

The video contains a lot of food for thought about the creative process, and the circumstances in which it takes place. I definitely agree with the observation that good ideas often take their sweet time to become apparent, and that their combination is crucial.

Oh, and the whiteboard animation is, as always with these things, just plain gorgeous.

You can also find a talk by the Author on this very topic here on TED. ↩︎

Hello Friendo!

You are reading Flux Capacitor, the company weblog of Fluxicon. Here, we write mainly about Process Mining, the things we're up to, and anything really.

We make Disco, the most powerful, user-friendly, and popular process mining software in the world. You should check it out and download your free demo version here!

Every year, we organize Process Mining Camp, the only conference exclusively focused on the practical application of process mining. Join hundreds of Process Miners from all over the world for two days of practice talks, workshops, and hanging out in Eindhoven!

Whether you are a beginner, or an experienced process mining practitioner — you may want to join one of our popular Process Mining Trainings, given every few weeks by experienced guides. We hear they're pretty great.

And if you're more the book worm type, go and read your heart out with our brand new Process Mining Book, which has everything to get you started and much more!

Keep you in the loop? Sure thing! Use this RSS feed, or subscribe to get an email when we post new articles. If you prefer an executive summary to the daily flurry, you should sign up to our mailing list here. And, of course you should follow us on Twitter here.
