Gary Drescher's thesis qua book "Made Up Minds". 
The Schema System synthesized new identifiers to represent novel situations.
True Creativity.  True Construction.
Mike Tintner, this is the meme that you need to surpress: "a creative algorithm 
is a physical impossibility".
It is interfering with your reasoning ability, and creating a blind spot for 
you.

"Theoretically, contrary to Tintner's argument, it would be feasible to use CBR 
to discover and represent truly novel situations.  However, this theoretical 
argument is not easy"


One example of this creativity. From anywhere or anyone.. Actual or theoretical.

I repeat : a creative algorithm is a physical impossibility like perpetual 
motion, the Immaculate Conception, transubstantiation of wine into the blood of 
Christ and other such religious fictions of creativity. And a bleeding obvious 
impossibility if you could just once turn your attention from the 
"architecture" of algorithms to the finished buildings they produce.. Then 
you'd see algorithms can't produce new building blocks.Only the same old Lego 
buildings.

If no one can give even a theoretical example - not the slightest proof of 
concept -  you are engaging in a Giant Wank.
