Are You an Experimental or Conceptual Genius?
Wired.com has an article about geniuses and the different types of a genius. You’re either a conceptual or experimental genius. What are these?
Conceptual innovators, it seems, get their Big Ideas out early, many peaking out before they leave their 30’s. They can change an industry (sometimes the world) almost overnight. Experimental innovators are those who quietly crunch along, doing creative trial and error but staying largely under the radar until much later, often having no visibility until their 50’s or beyond.
An interesting commentary is available at Creating Passionate Users.
What kind of genius are you? Of course, in order to first qualify as a genius, you need to have a Mac laptop of some sort (see the pic).
