Like in the book by Austin Kleon titled Steal like an artist that nothing is original and something was stolen from somewhere. There are things that are trending in our modern society and we think "oh that is new " , like tweking it caused such a buzz and in some places still is, well looking deep into it the creativity behind it probably came from back 1920s and 30s or probably not.
The media was going crazy about Miley Cyrus twerking and causing controversies. here is a video of Josephine Baker who was an American born French singer, dancer and actress who is doing her famous "banana dance''

Isn't this tweking? keep in mind this was back in the 1920s and 30s.Returning to my point here which was "There is nothing original".
Inventions may look so simple but yet involve creativity and imagination to them. Inventions change the world in the aim to make our lives a lot easier i mean look at the internet, you wouldn't be reading this and i wouldn't be typing this from a computer.have you ever thought about the creativity behind inventions?. Always making new stuff as time goes by. Inventions have played a huge role in our lives, even the smallest things like a selfie stick look how it has helped people take better self portraits without stretching and getting your hand tired,now people can fit into photos better.
but did you know this invention goes way back from 1983 Minolta disc-7 camera which had a mirror on the front to allow people to take self portraits. this stick was listed in the Times magazine's 25 best inventions of 2014 and in Japan's book of 101 Un-Useless Japanese inventions in 1995.
