10 Ideas Blog

The 10 Ideas Blog was inspired by the words of James Altucher in his National Best Seller, Choose YourselfEach week, we sit down and challenge our brain to come up with ten ideas for new inventions.  This is a great exercise for anyone to participate in, and sometimes we come up with really great concepts (and sometimes, they’re a little crazy!) Our father, Ben Greenfield wrote an article about why this is such a good idea, and you can read that article here.

In this installment of 10 Ideas, we were feeling the creative juices flowing, but thought it might be good to have a little help from technology.  One of the great impacts of modern tech is that it often provides lots of sources of inspiration, and there are so many applications that make it possible to create more easily.

Terran on Creativity

I, Terran, was thinking that some day River and I are going to write a book.  If that book is a big success, then we may want to make it into a movie.  There are lots of books that we’ve read that would be great movies.  It would be a big help if we had a book to movie machine, so we could just slip the book in, so it’s scanned, and then the technology creates an animated version of the story.

River on Creativity

I, River, was thinking about our time in the kitchen and how much fun it is to design baked treats.  Decorating cakes and cupcakes is something that I really like doing.  I think it would be even better if I could try out my designs in a cake- or cupcake decorating app first.

You can see some of our other ideas from the week here:
