This is a lovely TEDx talk from art director Emma Rogan in New Zealand. She started a 100 Days of Design project to encourage herself and others to spend some time each day in creative exploration.
The exercise could easily be adapted to a 30 days project. The project is a great way for people of all ages and in all industries to spend a little dedicated time each day involved in their own creative play.
Emma also cites a definition of creativity from former TED speaker Sir Ken Robinson.
"We need to redefine what creativity is." She paraphrases Robinson to say, "Creativity is a series of essential processes of the brain. It is imagining, solving, and inventing."
His TED talk is on how schools kill creativity.
