This is where the red tape does not get it. They want things right, not the right thing. Innovation just cannot happen in a petri dish. It happens when someone mistakenly kicked the petri dish and spoilt an experiment. It is made of accidents. Marie Curie, Thomas Edison, Benjamin Franklin, penicilin, .. (any locals? pls tell)
It is doing something right and then someone say, "aha.. wait a minute,.. that is not supposed to happen.. let me follow this.." and off s/he goes into a tangent. That is a creator in the making. Someone who says, 'i only like what i am doing.. i found it!' rather than 'i better pass this up the way its supposed to be before the professor or the feds wakes up'. It is spontaniety, rantings, adhocracy, peerocracy, meritocracy, all of our aboves and non of their aboves. It must be like Paris, giving young artists their space, their oils and the command, "Go wild on the canvas guys. Be yourselves". It is allowing every damn stupid idea you can think of its needed air of evolution and not institution. It can now be done quite safely and low-cost thanks to cyberspace. We are not asking to build planes and cars or windmills. We are asking for a centre where there is flowing fresh juice, capatis and free fuel. Among others. Every fifth failure is a success. Every ten thousandth blown glass is a light bulb. Every thousandth rant is a poem. Every millionth dwarf is a giant. We do not really know who or really know when that may happen. 2009 BREAK Raja Iskandar Shah wrote: > boh, from your writing, the first thing that came to my mind is that > we need people who are willing to solve real problems. genuinely > helping other people to solve a problem. not about making a fast buck. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Join Open Source Developers Club Malaysia http://www.osdc.my/ Facebook Fan page http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=98685301577 http://www.facebook.com/OSDC.my You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "OSDC.my Mailing List" group.
