>Cannibis (Sativa or Indica) in various forms has been used to stimulate creativity for thousands of years. Also peyote (used by Huichol & other native tribes), and many strains of psychedelic mushrooms. Perhaps ALL the creative arts own their invention to the ingesting of psychoactive plants in prehistoric times.

No No No. Do not use these drugs for creativity. I know several incredibly creative people that no longer can make a living from their craft. Oh yes, the drugs help them be creative, but the drugs also rob them of being able to do any thing with their creativity. They are a dead end.
