We 're not all creative/imaginative/inventive. Wouldn't it be great to be able to "visit" the mind of an inventor to see what's going on?

Or the mind of a composer as he/she is creating a symphony? Or the mind of a poet whose words bring joy and meaning to so many? It would be a fascinating glimpse into the unknown. Would you be up for it? Why?

    If you were able to do that, you would be lost in the complexity of their thoughts. It would look like a madhouse. From all this disarray comes genius.

    I guess you'd have to have someone on the other end outside that mind to whom you would be tethered ready to pull you out if needed. It might not be all that chaotic bh. It could very straightforward/logical/calm. Just a peek inside. Wouldn't you love to be able to peek inside your ancestor's mind as he was inventing? The thought processes that led him to it? Thank you for your reply! :)
