Breakfast Lecture Series for the Creative Community
Perhaps the biggest challenge of creativity is what will be added to our world and what is the next phenomenon? We hardly think about what we leave behind and in this quickly transforming world, things continually become outdated. These are questions we ask ourselves as designers with the intent to enhance the environment around us. A new outlook could make all the difference in our personal design projects from listening to interesting lecturers who also are asking questions and bringing forward solutions to fundamental obstacles that lie ahead of us in the creative world.
In 2008, Tina Roth Eisenberg started CreativeMornings with a simple concept: to intellectually and creatively enhance one’s breakfast experience by adding an archive of short talks for one to listen to online. At present, makers and designers using this website around the world enjoy their coffee with an international array of speakers talking about interesting topics. One can refine one’s talk search through various categories including themes, cities from which talks are given, lengths of the lecture, and also the language in which it is given.
With technology and the interactive sharing of insight over the internet, our world has become a lot more interconnected. So play a talk instead of reading the regular newspaper or checking another social media feed for updates. CreativeMornings provides the link and opportunity to connect with another speaker across the globe thinking of similar propositions as you are.
Yours to listen to and be inspired by: www.creativemornings.com.
