WATCH THIS NOW // An Animated Look At Education And Creativity

As backers of all creative endeavors, we feel obligated to point you in the direction of this speech by world-renowned education advisor Sir Ken Robinson. It's titled "Changing Education Paradigms," and while it centers mainly around problems in modern education, it's a must-see for anyone interested in creativity, the way we think and how these things relate to the world in which we live.

And, on top of Robinson's amazing insights, the United Kingdom's RSA Animate put together a truly mind-blowing animation to illustrate the entire thing.

Grab a snack, make yourself comfortable, put on those headphones and just watch this video. Think of it as 12 stimulating and inspiring minutes that'll make up for all the unstimulating, uninspiring time spent scrolling through your Facebook feed or playing Angry Birds. A true must watch:
