spontaneity and the creative process

Influx points to an interview with Frank Stephenson, the designer of the new MINI, where he explains how, at the last minute, when they were reviewing the clay model of the car, they realized it didn't have a tailpipe. It was a late night, and there were beer cans around. You can guess the way this ends. I swear some of our best ideas come from that little gremlin, Spontaneity.
