<h2>Is creativity needed more than ever in the world today?</h2>
<pre><code>Caged in a frame, we live only to duplicate others with a mold. The economy limits our freedoms by assigning rules of conduct for our jobs and designating what we ought to do for company and ourselves. We use everyday algorithm to live our supposedly free life without questioning its validity. In this society so stagnant, we have to choose remain with the status quo or to regress: to progress is an unavailable option. But we need to break out this cage that shares our thoughts and create what nobody has seen or experienced to progress.

In arts, we remember numerous schools that have climaxed one after another. But every school was born after great dissenters rebelled against predominant trends in arts. Only after Monet, Picasso and Pollack came the impressionism, cubism and action painting. For fixation of minds could only be broken with great rebels, the creativity has been vital in the course of progress in arts.

In science, break-through are needed as much as in arts. Remarkable discoveries often contradict with previous conception of the world. For the tentative nature of scientific theories are not often realized before such laudable dissensions, the cage again has to be broken. For example, Richard Feynman discarded the conventional and never-questioned method of using mathematical expressions to describe physical phenomena. In describing elementary particles’ movements, he used drawings and geometry in substitution. This diagram known as Feynman Diagram accurately explains the elementary article physics that no other scientists could with expressions. Scientific progress depends on creativity.

After all, we do apply algorithms, our heuristics, to ease our lives and to reach maximum efficiency. But by doing so, we have threatened humans to stay at the same spot, stagnant and decaying. We have evidenced that we need changes and new world of thoughts to drive towards progress. The creativity is vital, and we need to break the cage that limits our creativity.</p>
