Creativity In Indominus Rex

Improved Essays
In the 2015 film “Jurassic World”, the main antagonist, named Indominus Rex, a genetically modified dinosaur, escapes and terrorizes the park. During the rampage the Indominus Rex exhibits multiple signs of enhanced intelligence not expressed in the other dinosaurs such as hunting for sport; an action only conveyed in humans. Only after the main character, Owen, realizes the enhanced intelligence of the dinosaur does he begin to treat the Indominus Rex like a real danger (Jurassic World). Having the intelligence of a human isn’t the only requirement to be a human. What makes humans differ from other species of animals is creativity, philosophical thinking, and a concept of religion including the morals and principles from that religion. Creativity defines humanity. Since the beginning of man, ideas of multiple inventions like the wheel and the spear were formed. From those inventions humans innovated the wheel to become the car and the airplane, and the innovation of the spear to become the hunting rifle and the nuclear bomb. If necessity is the mother of invention, then humans have needed many objects. Humans have developed multiple forms of technology to save them from …show more content…
Multiple inventions have been innovated and that innovation will never stop, because, there will always be someone to make an invention better. Animals may use tools and the environment to hunt and complete tasks quickly and efficiently, but monkeys and apes still use rocks. Humans use multiple forms of metallurgy and machines to complete their tasks and can do them faster and better than any chimpanzee. The ability to create leads us to become higher thinkers than the other species in the animal kingdom because with all of the labor saving devices, humans have the time to sit down and think about the

    One of my personal heroes who displays naturalist intelligence is Steve Irwin (1962-2006). As a kid, I grew up watching Steve’s television series, “The Crocodile Hunter”, a wildlife documentary show which followed Steve as he went out into the wild in various countries around the world to interact with animals. His show went on to become the highest ever rated on the Animal Planet channel. Steve was a strong supporter of environmentalism and the conservation of endangered species. One of his accomplishments was the Steve Irwin Conservation Foundation, which is now known as Wildlife Warriors Worldwide, an organization established with the intention to educate people in the protection of injured, threatened, or endangered wildlife, and some of…

    Humanity’s advances throughout history have always amazed scientists; humans have gone far beyond their natural abilities and surpassing the seemingly impossible. The difference that conveys human from the less complex counterparts, animals, is centred on the abilities within the brain; human intelligence has an extraordinary capacity for knowledge. The brain has assisted with human species’ survival for many generations. Even present day, humans are continuously evolving by learning and developing new technology. Discoveries by the hands of individuals also aids in the development of lowering the mortality rate within the human species, therefore generating longer lifespans for the human race.…

    Author Mark Kennedy believes some of the greatest inventions were invented because mankind was lazy and not intelligent. I agree with Kennedy’s statement because our laziness provoked these inventions. Our laziness of research on encyclopedias, traveling by foot or boat caused the inventions of the computer, airplanes and cars. These inventions were invented to make humans do less work and make life easier. Places like the mall, to get to the second floor you must use escalators instead of stairs.…

    The society we are being raised in has shaped us into mindless, mechanical robots. Our opinions are being spoon-fed to us through forms of entertainment to the point where we can’t even think for ourselves anymore. Our status and our worth is based off of how many things you have. Not the measure of intelligence. Not the measure of creativity.…

    Can animals be people? Andrew Revkin addresses this question and the ethical issues it raises in his article for the New York Times entitled “When is a Person Not a Human? When it’s a Dolphin, or Chimp, or…” Specifically, he focuses on the recent push to have dolphins recognized as persons due to their complex mental faculties and the ethical arguments which proponents of this view use to claim moral rights for dolphins and other animals capable of “higher” forms of mental activity and social interaction. The ideas presented in his article are fundamentally related to the basic theories of morality and the basic conceptions of the nature of right and wrong that they represent. Revkin begins his article by referencing Professor Thomas I. White’s…

    Should animals have the same rights as humans? This is an ongoing debate that could end in one of two ways: either animals are granted rights and the lives of animals change to benefit them while humans lives change in a way that could harm them, or animals are denied rights and life goes on just as it has for years and years. In his essay, Why Animals Deserve Legal Rights, Steven M. Wise, a specialist in animal-rights law, strives to persuade his audience to incline towards legal rights for all animals. However, one can ask the question: how can this justifiably be done?…

    and other “smart” technologies, we allow them to have things like thought, personality and the ability to learn. When given these abilities, we try to study and see if these artificial things have the same thought processes as a human does. According to the article by Joel Achenbach, humans have a built in quality to progress that is given by the universe and this allows for evolutionary process. This is an important part in when humans create things like A.I. and other technologies, the reason being that the understanding of how this progressive quality works is what pushes the better understanding of our creations. To help stimulate this, we allow our creations to have thought and learning processes which allow for these things to be taught and to use the skills taught.…

    Humans and animals have always been viewed as separate, but in truth we are one and the same. In The Bonobo and the Atheist Frans de Waal makes an argument about how are not different and that one trait many argue makes us different, our morals, is not just indicative of us. De Waal shows many examples of morals in animals, but it is apparent that there morals are still different then ours. Human and other animals share similar moral traits but they differ in their development, and scope of altruism.…

    Previously, researchers believed that cave paintings and other symbols were only found in Europe from around 40,000 years ago. However, that thought has been majorly challenged after researchers found hand stencil and a nearby painting in Indonesia dating 39,900 and 35,400 years old respectively. They were able to date the calcite, which contains trace amounts of steadily decaying radioactive uranium. Another team found incredibly compelling evidence of symbolism in South Africa's Blombos cave. They unearthed a 100,000-year-old animal bone paintbrush and corresponding items, as well as an ocher slab with 75,000-year-old geometric carvings.…

    The Homo Sapien, the “thinking apes,” ancestors of mankind have been around for about six million years (Howell). Since then we have undergone many advances, many revolutions, starting with the very thing that gave humans an advantage over other beings, their minds.

Humanity was on a great strive, pursuit, for a higher standard, for discovery, advancement, ambition, curiosity etcetera, they had a drive. All of those great minds and achievements worked to get us where we are today; pushed for all these instruments and technology at the tips of our fingers.…

    Tidd et al (2005, P.3) states that “innovation is driven by the ability to see connections, to spot opportunity and to take advantage of them”. However, it is creativity that gives that ability to conjure up the ideas and Cummings (1998) supports this. He very much describes creativity as the idea generating stage. Martins and Turblanche (2003) also supports this theory and offers a definition for the context of organisational creativity. They state that: “…creativity can be defined as the generation of new and useful/valuable ideas for products, services, processes and procedures...”…
