WHERE GOOD IDEAS COME FROM by Steven Johnson

One of our most innovative, popular thinkers takes on-in exhilarating style-one of our key questions: Where do good ideas come from?

With Where Good Ideas Come From, Steven Johnson pairs the insight of his bestselling Everything Bad Is Good for You and the dazzling erudition of The Ghost Map and The Invention of Air to address an urgent and universal question: What sparks the flash of brilliance? How does groundbreaking innovation happen? Answering in his infectious, culturally omnivorous style, using his fluency in fields from neurobiology to popular culture, Johnson provides the complete, exciting, and encouraging story of how we generate the ideas that push our careers, our lives, our society, and our culture forward.

Beginning with Charles Darwin’s first encounter with the teeming ecosystem of the coral reef and drawing connections to the intellectual hyperproductivity of modern megacities and to the instant success of YouTube, Johnson shows us that the question we need to ask is, What kind of environment fosters the development of good ideas? His answers are never less than revelatory, convincing, and inspiring as Johnson identifies the seven key principles to the genesis of such ideas, and traces them across time and disciplines.

Most exhilarating is Johnson’s conclusion that with today’s tools and environment, radical innovation is extraordinarily accessible to those who know how to cultivate it. Where Good Ideas Come From is essential reading for anyone who wants to know how to come up with tomorrow’s great ideas.

Frontiers of Innovation in Publishing 1

Matthew Bernius, Co-Director and Researchers Guy Paddock (working on the Page2Pub project) and Rachael Gootnick (Open Publishing Guide project) of the Open Publishing Lab (OPL) at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) describe how their individual interests drive creative solutions for the future of publishing.

The OPL team describes the future of publishing as multi-faceted, with many solutions that are portable, timely, and context sensitive - moving from more information everywhere, to information in context.

From an Open Source Economic Development perspective, OPL@RIT is active in the five areas of the Innovation Framework, a heuristic model to guide sustainable investment in education, economic, and workforce development –

Brainpower: the Lab generates a powerful re-mix by leveraging individual team interests, time, and attention with deep cross campus knowledge resources

Innovation Networks: OPL team products build networks that explore new ways to engage students and community, accelerating the collective design of new solutions for the future of publishing

Quality, Connected Place: OPL is a physical gathering hub of diverse interests and talents; a model of University culture that prioritizes student led innovation strengthened by cross campus collaboration.

Dialogue and Inclusion: OPL Projects - Innovation News, the Social Networking Game meetu, Page2Pub, and the Open Publishing Guide - serve the creative and passionate interests of RIT students, faculty and a larger world community

Branding Stories: the Open Publishing Guide connects people, their ideas, and their communities directly to the publishing process

The Open Publishing Lab (OPL) is an example open environment cultivating individual creativity and collaboration to generate new project solutions for the future of publishing.
