There was a “Topic-Night” at the excellent German-French TV-station arte. They showed stuff about “ideas” and here I give you the link to quotes of - again - so very famous people, trying to define “what is an idea”.

It’s no secret, that everyone’s having ideas. Björk says: “I don’t feel that I’m that different from, say, for example the rest of my family. If you would look at their passport, no one of them says “artist”. My grandfather, he would show me a fireplace he has just made, a Polaroid of it, just as proud as I was playing my song.”

I really think ideas are like Marily Manson says: “It is your ID. It’s your identity.” and close to Daniel Libeskind: “It’s something that hits you. Sort of like a meteor falling on top of your head.”

Ideas are very individual things. Put one hundert people into a room and you will get hundert ideas out of if applied right. The next important question is: what will you do with them?
