The Mind, Thinking and Creativity project aims to consciously enhance our understanding of the characteristic ways in which we think, increase our awareness of the inherent limitations and blind spots generated by those characteristics, and develop the capacity to think creatively in a more comprehensive and integrated manner outside the confines of our existing conceptual frameworks.
The human mind is the highest evolved status of human consciousness. The development of new capacities of mind made possible the development of tools, language, agriculture, permanent settlements, religion, trade, transportation, communication, government, law, money, arts, education, nation states, and scientific and technological research. So too, each stage in the development of civilization has shaped the evolution of the human mind and its faculties and the way they are applied in life.
