Creativity and New Media

I want to start by saying that I’m not the artistic, creative type. So If I’m willing to spent any time on a creative project with help of new media……. it means that they truly enhance creativity from “zero to any” in my case J When I read the articleTwitter Serves Up Ideas From Its Followers” I got the idea to try the Design byME feature offered by Lego. I found it really interesting, because a week ago I was working on a Lego puzzle with a five-year-old son of my friend. I don’t have much experience with Lego and it was showing. It looked soooo complicated that I actually wondered ‘who invents those models?’…. It took three adults, a five-year-old, and a booklet of instructions to finish those two trucks J That is why I decided to give the Design byME a try………..

That  is my very first trial (I wanted to create a model of an Easter bunny).... and I have to admit it is not as easy as I thought it would be ;) 
I truly respect Lego designers now :)))
















The Lego web site even priced it out for me.... The price for my bunny set came up to over 32$.......hmmmm
'Overpriced' is an understatement :)
