Green's work suggests that targeting specific areas in the brain, either with neuromodulation or cognitive interventions, could enhance creativity. Yet no one is suggesting that a single brain
region, or even a single neural network, is responsible for creative thought. "Creativity is not one system but many different mechanisms that, under ideal circumstances, work together in a
seamless way." Kounios said.

G In search of the eureka moment. Creativity looks different from person to person. And even within one brain, there are different routes to a creative spark, Kounios explained. One involves what cognitive scientists call "System 1" (also called "Type 1") processes: quick, unconscious thoughts-"Aha!" moments-that burst into consciousness. A second route involves "System 2"processes: thinking that is slow, deliberate, and conscious. "Creativity can use one or the other or a combination of the two," he said. "You might use Type 1 thinking to generate ideas and Type 2 to critique and refine them."

They found that for highly experienced musicians, the mechanisms used to generate creative ideas were largely automatic and unconscious, and they came from the left posterior part of the brain. Less-experienced pianists drew on more analytical, deliberative brain processes in the right frontal region to devise creative melodies, as Kounios and colleagues described in a special issue of Neurolmage on the neuroscience of creativity (Vol. 213, 2020). "It seems there are at least two pathways to get from where you are to a creative idea," he said.
