David Bohm

From "On Creativity," forward by Lee Nichol:

The human being is thus in the unique position of perceiving the dynamism and movement of the world around him, while at the same time realizing that the means by which this perception takes place-one's own mind-is of an equivalent order of creativity, participating intimately with the world which it observes. To the extent that our perceptions of the world affect "reality" - and the evidence for this is considerable - we have a corresponding responsibility to attempt to bring into being a coherent relationship between our thought processes and the world the emerge from and interpret.... In inquiring into the nature of creativity, Bohm does not shy away from questions beauty, truth, or "the good." Along the way, he excavates a series of Western cultural dualisms - abstract and concrete, intellect and intuition, inner and outer, absolute and relative - always proopsing a razor's edge of attention by way of which one might "thread the needle of these dualisms, avoid the crystallization of any thought process or paradigm, and engage in creative perceptions for which we currently have no definitions.
