Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.
Psalm 139:14 NLT
Q: Does this complex system sound like something that would arise from time + chance or is it from DESIGN?
"Most experts agree that two elements are central to creativity.
First and foremost, it reflects our capacity to generate ideas that are
original, unusual or novel in some way.
The second element is that these ideas also need to be satisfying, appropriate or suited to the context in question.
The influential four Ps conceptualization refers to the approachesthat can be adopted in the study of creativity.
Approaches focusing on factors that abet or thwart creativity may be external in that they are part of the environment (press/place) or internal in the form of traits and skills that typify the individual (person).

Approaches focusing on factors that abet or thwart creativity may be external in that they are part of the environment (press/place) or internal in the form of traits and skills that typify the individual (person).
These are distinct from approaching creativity in relation to the mental operations that transpire during creative ideation (process) and the outputs thereof (product).
All these operations of creative cognition have overlapping brain correlates, but what differs are the specific brain regions that are held to be of significance in each of these processes.
The role of frontal poles is emphasized in the case of analogical reasoning, the lateral inferior frontal gyrus in metaphor processing, and anterior aspects of the superior temporal gyrus in insight.
Among the most thought-provoking findings is our ability to engage in creative pursuits despite disorder and degeneration at the neural level. This attests to the disorder-resistant power of the brain in enabling self-expression and communication.
Brain plasticity is a fact.
Our brains change throughout our lifespan and this is readily evidenced by the everyday observation that we never stop learning. Creative thinking involves the discovery of novel connections and is therefore tied intimately to learning."
