Our language does not have a mechanism to provide a valid proof for a question outside our perceptual reality because language is inherently based on our reality.

In Quantum physics a proposed idea as to why definitions of mathematical proofs cannot be agreed upon could be applicable to this discussion.. A purely intellectual idea, which has no connection to our perceptual reality, can only be defined from an individuals view. When there is no common connection outside of our reality., how many ways can one idea be divided.

enough understanding of physics Carlo Roosen In Quantum mechanics, while the equations match the experimental evidence to very high degree, no one can can agree on what the equations are telling us. As we lack both the vocabulary and the concepts to describe things that function in ways that are impossible in our reality. Is this the same problem when discussing the elements of consciousness?

unenlightened Creativity is a product of the mind and the ingredients for the recipe are there. They must be arranged in a creative way by the need of the individual.

javi2541. To me, every idea that crosses the line into something new is creative. If it could be the affect of a primal need, then that need still effects our logic today and that is a line of thought to explore.

JKOP. If animals use creativity is there a common primal need? Also have I read that in many early languages the same word is used for "change and evil". I assume this is because change was seen as a threat to a groups power structure as it can be today.

Across place and time, is creativity a reaction to a primal need? Objects of adornment have been found, through archeology, made by the Neanderthals. Is this a common thread?

Creativity is an individual exposing some part of who they are. I heard a comic saying how Richard Prior did sole surgery on stage. He made trying to burn himself alive funny. Writers put themselves in the persona of the characters they create. There is no deviding line between the two. The creation is the creator.
