When children are born, they are highly creative, you could say that all children are born artists, reasons are many, but high among them is their not being afraid to be wrong, when they grow up, they loose that capacity, this is caused mainly by the education we give them.
Our education system was developed during the industrial revolution, when a job was given mainly to students that had academic abilities on scientific subjects, not on artistic subjects, son emphasis was given to those subjects, and also students where following these criteria, because if you didn´t have a job, it meant poverty for your family.
So creative people were not good at school and could not find a job after graduating.
Now we have found that intelligence is dynamic and that different talents are needed to be able to survive on the long term for humanity.
But still education systems are pretty much the same as it has been since its conception.
So our goal is to rethink education and balance what our children are going to learn in terms of our future needs.
