What is a Source Idea

All ideas are time stamped. Sometimes they can gestate over a long period of time until the moment they seize us and insist on being taken from idea to form.

We remember clearly where we were, what we were doing and how the arrival of the idea infected our mind body being at that moment we felt compelled to act.

To go back to the Source of the Idea, the Source of a word, the Source of a technology or tool, is to also seek to understand the very particular aspects that arrived whole with the idea, word or technology.

Nothing happens without an idea. Ideas are ephemeral and need action and co-ordination to go from the weightless invisible to a form. It takes people, things, other creatures, Earth, technology, knowledge, time, love, care, commitment and the right timing to bring an idea into form.

From ephemeral to form is not a linear, scripted process. It is emergent.

Each of us might consider we are a Source Idea. From nothing a spark. From a spark an act, from the action, emergence.
