Dreams and infinite possibilities
Friday, January 7, 2011 at 10:18AM 
As inherently creative beings, our imagination is where we dream and the inconceivable happens. As children it was the room where we laughed and frolicked and the playground we amused ourselves in. We pretended to be superheroes, daring space explorers, and travelers to distant lands. We were passengers, excited about our ongoing rides to the place where 'it can't be done' was usually nowhere to be found.
As the years passed our pretending withered, we dared ourselves less, and distant lands became figments of our imagination. We regimented our lives and limitations would define us as we arranged our days in well organized and efficient spaces. Living in squared shaped boxes that rarely shifted.
I was inspired to write this post because yesterday I came across a truly imaginative endeavor by design studio Charlex, called Shapeshifter. It was pure, genuine and unadulterated creativity. The very essence of what drives inspiration and breeds new thinking.
Reading about the process behind this extremely creative project, gave me an even deeper appreciation for the story they so brilliantly produced.
Even though it is impossible to travel back in time to our childhood, where often our imagination ceaselessly ran wild, it becomes valuable from time to time to step out of our boxes, shift our shapes and ponder the possibilities.
