Creative Processes And
Metaphors-Multi-Associative Or Chaotic? Methodological Remarks For Aesthetics
And Innovation by Hans
Lenk* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS)
Human beings (at least “creative” ones like
artists, poets, inventors, engineers, scientists) can have and develop a
consciousness for using phantasy, fiction, similes, comparisons, reflexions,
metaphors. They - and we all - are capable of reflecting, developing new ideas
and projecting them to other fields and levels. We have and can refine
“metaphoric consciousness” (after Cohen). We might even understand the human as
the being which is capable of what I called creative ascent” [1] by ascending
to higher-level abstract, musical or picture-like phantasies or constructions.
e.g. in theories or architecture. Only humans are capable to transcend any
positions, levels, strata, perspectives to reach ever new viewpoints and
vantage points. The drive to be creative, to transcend limits and levels if in
a symbolic manner is indeed psychologically characteristic for any creative
activity. Thinking, meditating, reflecting new ideas, solutions and metaphors
(“reflectators” after Peat). may be especially productive or “creative”. We are
creating beings I call highly creative metaphors “creataphors”. Being human
turns out to be possible only if one would live in a continuous creativity of
at least a middle range and if one would exercise this creativity, if one is
beyond that at least potentially able to create and develop as well as utilize
reflectaphors and creataphors. Humans as the interpreting and metainterpreting
beings are the specifically creataphoric beings.
