Passives and Creators

when I was younger I saw people one day, doing things where they had little engagement with the flow of the world, like watching TV24 hours a week, playing with consoles, attending concerts, theatre, championships, games, browse the web.
Only interactivity was seen in internet use (irc, clan-fps, mmorpg).

Then i found that the passives world could be described by a computer program in a fairly easy way. I thought then that thats what the big difference is - the method and life of the creators can not be defined as a program.

The other type was the creator - programmers, philosophers, artists, mathematicians, physicists, playwrits and authors.
Performers would have fit in somewhere ther too, their creations would have been more fluid and attached to them.

The divide seemed very big. While the passives who consumed what was created lived and kept repeating these passive activities throughout their lives.
