Event description: Henrik's blog on http://slcreativity.org/ asks the Big Question on creativity:

'Do creative people become SL residents or do SL residents become creative people?'

While probably the answer is highly likely 'both', this would be an excellent opportunity to try to find out *why*. Also, there is the reverse of the coin: if you're not creative, or not willing to explore your own creativity, is SL the right place to be? Many define SL as being a place for 'creative, talented individuals' -- and creativity can be expressed in *several* ways, not just by doing pretty buildings and clothes -- but is there a place for someone who only wanders around, fascinated with other's creativity? (And how long does that fascination last?)

Remember, simple things like changing your own avatar is creativity as well -- self-expression *is* a form of creativity.

Henrik suggests that '75% of SL residents created something form scratch in the last 7 days'. Are you one of the 75%? ;)

Come and discuss with us at the Biergarten!
