La ciudad creativa

La palabra creatividad etimológicamente deviene del significado de los términos crear y crecer. Actualmente es posible entenderla como aquel concepto que reúne la idea de tener una información previa, un conjunto de aptitudes y un proceso cognitivo. Siguiendo dicho planteamiento, es posible decir que, una creación es en sí el resultado de la creatividad de un individuo, esto a su vez permite asegurar que toda creación es susceptible de dos fenómenos posteriores a su origen, los cuales son crecer y adaptarse, y que aquella que no sea susceptible de alguno de estos dos fenómenos está condenada a morir. El ejemplo mas cercano de una creación es el ser humano, esto, entendiendo a la humanidad como la creación de un ser superior, en donde desde su aparición ha crecido y se ha adaptado. Ahora bien, al concebir a la ciudad como una creación del ser humano, se pueden evidenciar los mismos procesos de crecimiento y adaptación por los que atraviesa su creador en diferentes momentos de su historia y en la actualidad. Otra remarcable similitud se revela en los procesos de desarrollo que sufren las susodichas creaciones; en la ciudad las edificaciones nacen, crecen, se reproducen y mueren para dar paso a las nuevas, esto ocurre así mismo en la humanidad pues los seres humanos nacen, crecen, se reproducen y mueren dando paso a otros. En este punto cabe resaltar que ambos términos ciudad y humanidad se refieren a un “todo”, por lo cual, la comprensión de ciudad, como objeto principal de estudio de este trabajo de grado, se establecerá bajo el marco teórico de la teoría sistémica.The word creativity etymologically comes from the meaning of the terms create and grow. Currently it is possible to understand it as that concept that brings together the idea of ​​having a prior information, a set of skills and a cognitive process. Following this approach, it is possible to say that a creation is in itself the result of the creativity of an individual, this in turn allows assuring that all creation is susceptible to two phenomena subsequent to its origin, which are to grow and adapt, and that one who is not susceptible to either of these two phenomena is doomed to die. The closest example of a creation is the human being, this, understanding humanity as the creation of a superior being, where since its appearance it has grown and adapted. Now, when conceiving the city as a creation of the human being, the same processes of growth and adaptation can be evidenced by those that its creator goes through at different times in its history and in the present. Another remarkable similarity is revealed in the development processes suffered by the aforementioned creations; in the city buildings are born, grow, reproduce and die to make way for new ones, this happens in humanity as well, because human beings are born, grow, reproduce and die giving way to others. At this point it should be noted that both terms city and humanity refer to a "whole", therefore, the understanding of city, as the main object of study of this work of degree, will be established under the theoretical framework of systemic theory.The word creativity etymologically comes from the meaning of the terms create and grow.
