English term or phrase: Mundane creativity
Mundane creativity can be illustrated by examples from a small-scale British study of camera phone use conducted in 2003. One household found that the small picture that could be taken by the camera phone was just the right size for Loot, the UK magazine carrying classified advertisements of items requested or for sale. In this case, the family concerned took a picture of the car they were trying to sell and submitted it with their advert.
