A collage detailing the rise of a mega trend that a group of researchers, including myself, dubbed "Creative Liberation." Creative Liberation is about the growing trend of people choosing to create their own goods, motivated by a variety of reasons. Creating one's own clothing, furniture, computers, and even food allows for people to have control over the price and quality of the items, while customizing and repurposing preexisting items allows for the individual to express their creativity and modify products to suit their own needs. 

I do not claim to own any of the images used in this collage.
