So I'm interested in the relations between AI-Life, theoretical psychology, and the philosophy of mind (and also in the social implications of AI-Life). In particular: purpose, motivation, and creativity. I have two children, and passions for India and Polynesia.

Other people's brains might shut out this same information through a process called "latent inhibition" - defined as an animal's unconscious capacity to ignore stimuli that experience has shown are irrelevant to its needs. Through psychological testing, the researchers showed that creative individuals are much more likely to have low levels of latent inhibition.

How Is Your Climate for Innovation? By Charles W. Prather, Ph.D. Think back over your career to the work situation that provided the most satisfying working environment for you (hopefully it is your current job).  Now, contrast that one to the opposite - the one that provided the least satisfying working environment.  You are probably instantly able to see that your personal enthusiasm and the level of your innovativeness paralleled the work environment. What dimensions of the environment do you think were most important?  If you wanted to improve the environment for innovation, what specifically would you do?  Leaders struggle with these questions. In our work with organizations, we find that the climate for innovation is crucial, poorly understood,  and all but ignored when thoughts turn to improving the level of innovation.  When leaders wish to improve the climate, many times they will just shotgun it - doing something that is poorly thought out, or doing something that makes the situation worse.  There is a better way - first understand the system and get the data, then decide what to do. Based on the pioneering work of Goran Ekvall in Sweden some 20 years ago, it is now possible to quantify the climate for innovation.  Ekvall's work has been further refined and validated by Scott Isaksen and others at the Center for Creative studies at SUNY-Buffalo, who have defined nine dimensions of the climate for innovation.  These nine dimensions are:

What is Art Therapy? Art Therapy combines visual art and psychotherapy in a creative process using the created image as a foundation for self-exploration and understanding. Thoughts and feelings often reach expression in images rather than words. Through the use of art therapy, feelings and inner conflicts can be projected into visual form. In the creative act, conflict is re-experienced, resolved and integrated. - The B.C. Art Therapy Association Introductions Hi, I'm Karen Wallace, and I'm a professional member of the British Columbia Art Therapy Association. In my work I see individual clients who are exploring issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, life transitions, abuse and trauma. I use psycho-education, cognitive behavior techniques, solution-oriented and expressive therapies. I draw on a wide variety of theories to create an integrative approach. I am client centered and use techniques and theories which 'fit' the client. I am a practising artist and combine theories in a very creative way in my practice to facilitate clients' journeys through change. Some of the tools I use in my work are sand tray, all forms of art making, life mapping, goal setting, relaxation techniques, guided visualizations, journal and creative writing, movement, somatic experiencing techniques, stress reduction techniques, reframing, mindfulness meditation techniques and play therapy.

Although African Americans wrote symphonies and sonatas in the period between the world wars, it was the nightclub music that seems to capture the period. The musical show Shuffle Along , which opened on May 23, 1921, and ran for over 500 performances, was written by Eubie Blake, with lyrics by Noble Sissle, and the book by the vaudeville team Flournoy Miller and Aubrey Lines. Both Josephine Baker and Ethel Waters served in the chorus line. Paul Robeson was briefly in the cast as a member of a barbershop quartet. The libretto is open to the scene containing, "I'm Just Wild about Harry," the hit of the show. Eubie Blake.

Creativity and Play: Fostering Creativity Article Video Clip requires Real player transcript Activities Reading List Also of interest Related Web Sites Creativity is the freest form of self-expression. There is nothing more satisfying and fulfilling for children than to be able to express themselves openly and without judgment. The ability to be creative, to create something from personal feelings and experiences, can reflect and nurture children's emotional health. The experiences children have during their first years of life can significantly enhance the development of their creativity. Importance of the Creative Process All children need to be truly creative is the freedom to commit themselves completely to the effort and make whatever activity they are doing their own. What's important in any creative act is the process of self-expression. Creative experiences can help children express and cope with their feelings. A child's creative activity can help teachers to learn more about what the child may be thinking or feeling. Creativity also fosters mental growth in children by providing opportunities for trying out new ideas, and new ways of thinking and problem-solving. Creative activities help acknowledge and celebrate children's uniqueness and diversity as well as offer excellent opportunities to personalize our teaching and focus on each child. Opportunities for Creativity Children need plenty of opportunities for creative play and creative thinking. Start by providing activities that are based on the children's interests and ideas. This means learning how to listen intently to what children are saying. It is very helpful to tape record and transcribe children's conversations as well as take notes and review them with your co-teachers.

c reativity - The ability or power to create. Productivity with originality and expressive qualities imagination newness Among other activities, both remembering and forgetting are crucial to the creative process , as are also acts of destruction Creativity is the act of grasping and nurturing inspiration Brainstorming is a process for stimulating the generation of ideas. The stages of the creative process: Finding or formulating a problem . George Kneller (American psychologist) called this stage "first insight." Researching and drawing from life experiences ( memory ), networking, etc. This stage is variously called " discovery " and " saturation ." Mulling over the problem in a sort of chaos of ideas and knowledge , letting go of certainties ( forgetting ). Jacob Getzel (American psychologist) called this stage " incubation " engaging the intuitive, non- sequential , or global thinking at the core of creativity. One or more ideas surface. This is also called "immersion" and "illumination." The idea is tested as a potential solution to the problem. Getzel called this "verification." This final stage often involves revision conscious structuring and editing of created material.
