Day 14 - Visited the Miraikan in Odaiba today, the national museum of emerging sciences. They had a great new display about the 5 types of creativity that are used to spark innovation and look at things in a different way. Associative, Integrative, Serendipity, Mimicing and Alternative are the five different types they discuss. They use world changing inventions to talk about how we use creativity to make giant changes in our world. Very interesting. On the way back from the museum we transfer at the Ueno station (see pic) and Ed commented on how really beautiful the city is at night and how we never really just get out and look at it after dark. You really do see these different types of creativity all around you here in Tokyo. Everything is though out, very little is not planned or just happens on its own.
