What does it mean to be a creative?

I've been thinking about the word creativity a lot recently. You see, as an adult I've only really considered myself A Creative very recently, having worked in software development for most of my career.

But in the last few years creating music has become more and more my focus and it suddenly hit me...

• Am I a creative person now?
• Was I not a creative person before?
• What does it even mean to be creative?
• For those who identify as A Creative, have you always known you were or is it something that came to you?
• Is creating music on a modular synth particularly creative?
• Is it possible to make music in a mechanical way without being creative?
• Is that what I do?

So many questions - please share your thoughts Hive - I need answers!

And if you don't know much about the music I make and the modular synth I use, here's a bit of a surprise mini documentary about it that I've only just been able to share. It was recorded a few months ago for a student masters project...

Have a great day and I hope you are able to be creative in some way!
