Creativity: it's all about using your brain

Article Abstract:

News design has evolved to become as important as the text it supports. Readers generally think using two hemispheres of their brain, the left and the right hemisphere. The left side is the logical side that functions to interpret information in a logical manner, therefore can be controlled to a certain degree. The right side is the creative side and is usually illogical, therefore, uncontrollable. Informational graphics are a hybrid mixture of pictures and word intended to stimulate both hemispheres of the brain to direct the flow of information.

However, American David Carson was applauded during the workshop.
