There is an approach to problem solving that complements the scientific method and facilitates progress and innovation. Let us call it artistic process. Although aesthetic in nature, it is not confined to the arts, nor is it always present in them.
Artistic process transcends subject area.
Apply it to any endeavor and that endeavor will become an art a vehicle for awakening insight. At its core, artistic process blends emotion with the disciplined pursuit of quality. It begins with resonance , a feeling of close kinship with some medium of human activity maybe commerce, medicine, mathematics, athletics, music, or public service. Finding our resonant medium is a private undertaking, made easier when we have the freedom to explore our fascinations and the encouragement to do so. Resonance with a medium motivates us to pursue quality in our relationship with it.
