How do you define creativity? Does something have to be valuable to be creative or just original? How do we determine something's value or interest such that we can deem it truly creative?

Well, creativity does not necessarily mean good culture, it just means creative, I guess you could call it outside of the box thinking. However, what is successful and considered good is a function of the current society. Think for yourself what you enjoy or not, listen to other people because they may be right about what is quality and what is shit for a reason you had not thought of, but ultimately it is you who makes that decision of what you like.

creativity is the cumulative awareness of abstract form, convention and artistic tropes. For some people this awareness is so great that their capacity for creation is not merely informed by the aforementioned factors, but actively surpasses or overwhelms their aesthetic potential to say something which has been left as-yet unsaid within the limits of conformity.
Of course, this definition is very specific to literary or artistic mediums only - though it appears to me that creativity in other fields would operate under the same analogous principles.
