You might want to take a look at Margaret Boden's book "Dimensions of
Creativity".  She comes up with some sort of definition.

So far nobody has come up with a system that would be considered
creative.  Some people dispute whether there is such a thing
as creativity.

It is not purely random, although there may be some randomness
involved.  It does appear to be dependent upon knowledge.
