LAI Wai-leung / 方興未艾的戰爭：創意／文化成產業 Creativity/culture turned industry, a brewing battle
[source of banner image: http://www.artsportagecounty.org/our-initiatives/creative-economy-inventory-project/] 『創意產業』，一個看似原創的名詞，初聽到時，口中唸著唸著，總有種怪怪的欠缺自然的感覺，感覺何來?我嘗試用普通常識、常人角度對這複合名詞說出常人一般的聯想。 創意：純大腦運作。建基於固有知識，源於生活並帶有改善生活的功能；亦可天馬行空，作前人之未作，純粹為解放固有觀念或思想。兩者皆以 social innovation為目的。 產業：牽涉土地運用、人力資源、融資、成本控制，旨在以最低成本謀取最高回報並尋求不斷的利潤增長。 啊…….. 彷然大悟! 這兩種東西之間原來存在著根本上的矛盾，硬把它們拉一起，甚至產生邏輯上的謬誤。 規劃化後的『創意產業』論述可又另一回事。
