@unklar
But seriously. It is a proven fact that just enough #constraint is better for #creativity:
Recent surveys show that managers tend to consider compliance restrictions and a lack of resources as the main obstacles to innovation. This common wisdom suggests eradicating all constraints: by getting rid of rules and boundaries, creativity, and innovative thinking will thrive. Our research, however, challenges this wisdom and suggests that managers can innovate better by embracing constraints.

For her personal creative project in my Influence Strategies course, my student Xuan Luo created a "moe anthropomorphic" version of our school. In other words, if #USC Annenberg were an anime character, what would it look like? Xuan designed the costume, hired a model, and conducted a photo shoot to bring her vision to life...

"As artists, we must learn to be self-nourishing. We must become alert enough to constantly replenish our creative resources as we draw on them"

"AI's don't know what it's like to be a child to grow up. To fall in love. To fall in lust. To be angry. To fight. To forgive. To be a parent. To age. To lose your parents. To get sick. To face death. This is what human expression is about."

"Computers can now create but, they are not creative. To be creative you need to have some awareness, some understanding of what you've done. AI's know nothing whatsoever about the images and words they generate. Most crucially, AI's have no comprehension of the essence of art: living."

"This will not be dominating creativity because AI's do not innovate, they synthesize what we already know. AI is derivative by design and inventive by chance."

Last week I posted about my difficulties making art, especially since the pandemic started. After much thought, plus support and advice from friends/fellow artists, I’ve concluded that my biggest hurdle is getting into the studio! Once there things inevitably happen! I’ve now turned my focus on getting in there physically rather than trying to dream up some creative reason to go in. #art #mastoart #blocked #creativity #studio

Today was a good day. Went for a lovely walk in the spring rain with my wife, had a lovely bout of #creativity with @bin_nebenan, @Rollenspielblog and @Optional and watched the latest episode of Picard. Even got a bit of training in.
Didn’t get to do all the nothing I wanted, but that’s all right.

There’s something sad about imagining that #AI will unlock greater #creativity than humans could otherwise achieve. Why do people have such a low opinion of what their fellow humans are capable of?
As if the best measure of imagination is efficiency…

Debating #creativity with a friend. I believe #AI like #GPT4 used by #chatgpt or Google #bard can already match humans in any creative endeavour upto a professional level. This will increase to be better than what humans can produce.
I believe this for movies, TV series, voice acting, pictures, poems, books, music, articles, scripts and even code:

The productivity multiplier of these tools for experienced professionals is just crazy. Exactly what automation is meant to do. Take away the drudge.

Blog Post by Stitched Ink Media, first published November 21, 2022.
Excerpt from Chapter 1 of the book ‘Systemic Evolutions’ by Chris Handrahan.
For evolution to properly function, the environment must transform to permit fresh, innovative possibilities to emerge.

Wandering reflections on AI-generated content by yours truly (unless it's AI-generated and you can't tell, of course.)
My latest at Black Sun Journal. Excerpt:
Intelligent machines are beginning to impinge on the exclusive franchise of human meaning, by stealing some of our thunder in language and the arts. The more human-level tasks machines accomplish, the worse humans seem to feel. But artificial intelligence is still in diapers. We can still run circles around it artistically. We can still laugh at its fabrications, mistakes, and clunky wordsmithing.
Nonetheless, we’re already reaching peak overreaction. It’s a critical mass of sentimental outrage from the human creative community, with at least one major boneheaded think-piece being shat into the online ether every day. By some of the ostensibly “best and brightest” public intellectuals like Noam Chomsky, who should damn well know better.

Where Good Ideas Come From

You cannot unsee this. You have been warned.
ZIJkant, a Belgian organization that specializes in raising awareness around gender and equal opportunities, has a new campaign that has utterly disgusting imagery—adequately altered to make it bizarre and surreal in order to make a point—that also makes perfect sense for what they want to communicate.
Thoroughly provocative, memorable, and impactful.

Daily Inspiration: "Dare I suggest that if you are thinking about a bit of downsizing, you consider getting rid of your Department of Procrastination and Delay?" - #Futurist Jim Carroll
Downsizing seems to be all the rage these days, particularly at tech companies. As someone who has studied innovation for thirty years, I've learned that often, those doing the downsizing are targeting the wrong people.
With that in mind, let me offer up my expertise on what groups should be on the chopping block. In fact, there are a number of departments that I suggest you might consider axing:
- The Creativity and Innovation Prevention Department
- The Office Of Small Thinking and Marginal Ideas
- The Department of Lost Initiative
- The Excuses and Justification Bureau
- The Committee To Create Committees
- The Aggressive Indecision Department
- The Division of Obsolete Technologies
- The Department of Reinventing the Wheel
- The Office of Doing What's Always Been Done
- The Department of Repetitive But Useless Actions
- The Department that Always Does it This Way
- The Office of the Leadership Sycophants (That one is for Twitter)
... and a few others that are in the post!

Oh, this is lovely stuff, Samsonite! More than the other celebs used within the 'Tested like Samsonite' theme (Amitabh Bachchan, Yuvraj Singh, and Mithali Raj, where their struggles were equated to that of the product's), here, renowned dancer Rukmini Vijayakumar dances *on* a Samsonite! This is a beautiful way to showcase the product's strength even while using a wonderful cultural context to do so!

"Solution" to my survey question according to this study from 2019 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/acp.3532
Music decreases #creativity.
#Background #music with foreign #lyrics decreases as well.
#Library noise is better than music but still worse than silence.
Overall: #Silence is the best acoustic environment for creativity.
However: n=36 (too few), age distribution not optimal, majority was female. So there is valid criticism with respect to the design of the study.
Artistic creative activities help to regulate emotions and support self-development.
This n = 47,924 survey shows that artistic activities can support acceptance and reappraisal, provides needed distraction, and benefits self-development in terms of i.a. enhanced self-esteem and agency. 🎨♥️

Hi! My name is Sarah, and I'm a queer neurodivergent poet, musician, and AuDHD/OCD advocate.
The words queer and neurodivergent are doing a lot of heavy lifting in that first sentence, though! The longhand is "bisexual nonbinary genderfluid demigirl who is autistic, PDA, ADHD, OCD, GAD, CPTSD, and bipolar", but that doesn't fit on a business card. 😅
I'm Australian, and I used to live in China but now I live in San Francisco, ostensibly working on a novel but mostly just sucking up life like I'm a vacuum cleaner and it's lint.

Fun fact about me: there is a recording somewhere of me very intensely discussing The White Witch of Narnia / Conan The Barbarian porn on the radio.
She holds it all until it cracks. Broken promises, shattered dreams, this broken state her new reality. Then she realizes, as it all falls apart, it’s through the cracks a new creation will emerge. It’s in the breaking there is healing. It’s when the walls are shattered that hope can endure. The breaking is only the beginning of mending.

New research to be published and presented at #CHI2023!
We present new psychological and neurophysiological evidence suggesting that #VirtualReality can be used to support #Creativity by enhancing #Flow, and more generally #ExternalCognition.
Many thanks to the brilliant Laura Hagedorn and Maryam Alimardani; and to the TSHD Research Traineeship fund @TilburgU for financing this research project.
Graham Wallas is often credited with the first creative process model, published in his 1926 book "The Art of Thought".
The model consists of 4 stages: Preparation, Incubation, Illumination, and Verification.
I have read about similar but older models from the more general problem-solving literature in the past. But I can't seem to find these anymore!
Does anyone have a lead? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
