I was bemused by the creativity technique listed on the Mycoted site titled "Bunches of Bananas"...but it was worth reading about it as it led me to this image...it is a wall of bananas...the work is by Stefan Sagmeister. It is made of 7200 bananas! I have previously come across his work mainly on CD covers. The design museum says about Sagmeister "Many of his contemporaries felt that music graphics had become less interesting once their old canvas, the vinyl LP cover, had shrunk to the dimensions of a CD, but Sagmeister saw the CD as a toy with which he could tantalise consumers." (Design Museum, 2009). So he had really looked for opportunity where others had given up. A true sign of a creative thinker!
