Imitation to Creation: A Creative Guide

This episode provides a summary and review of the book "Imitation and Creation: A Creative Guide for Ages 13 and Up" by Kunitake Sasou, arguing that creativity is a learned skill accessible to everyone, not an innate talent.

The book outlines a three-step process starting with imitation, moving to imagination, and culminating in creation, likening it to the Japanese concept of "shu-ha-ri", which progresses from learning fundamentals to innovation.

The review emphasizes that creativity is about reclaiming inherent sensibility suppressed over time, offering practical tips like digital detox, emotional reflection, and analog practice to cultivate this ability.
