Greetings fabulous Felines and Hoomans of the Creative Hive!

With the star of CreativeCoin (CCC) on the rise again — thanks to the efforts of @cccf and @cliffagreen — I have been thinking a lot about the whole issue of Creativity and where that fits in the context of Community.

For starters... as I was writing this post, I found myself wondering "where" I was going to post it.

Then I started poking around the art/creative communities currently listed on @peakd.

Hive has some really kick-ass specific art communities... covering painting, music, photography, sketches, digital art, NFTs and more.

What I could not find was a broader umbrella.

There IS no — for example — "Creative Hive" community... as a place to brainstorm creative inspiration, ideas and in general serve as a junction and distribution point to the greater web of discipline specific communities.

What to do, what to do...?

Is it the Creative Coin Community that serves this function?

Maybe it is. Maybe it could be. Maybe it should be... but lets consider that the CCC token (after which the community is named) is the reward rather than the creative process.

Of course, it's a perfectly functional hive/community... so I am wondering if perhaps the most sensible thing here is not to actually reinvent the proverbial wheel, but instead to simply Re-Brand the "Creative Coin" Community page to "Creative Hive" or "Creative Community Central" (and yes, I know we all "hate" anything centralized!) or something like that?

I don't know... I am just tossing ideas out into the air here, seeing where/if any of them might land and stick.

In part, I am drawing inspiration from the Natural Medicine Community which is technically speaking the "home" of the LOTUS token, but mostly serves as a curation and jumping-off point for multiple related communities.

Let's remember that CCC (when tagged appropriately) is the reward for a very wide range of content, much like LOTUS which covers herbology, homesteading, meditation, wellness, Law of Attraction and several other sub-communities.

As I said, just thinking out loud and hoping to stimulate some dialogue!
