Sarah's Comments on the creativity video
I thought that the video Creativity and the Brain was incredible (once I figured out that I had to just click on Richard Serra's face to make it play)! The point that I found most interesting was when (I think it was Chuck Close) was talking about his relationship with Serra and others while in college at Yale. He said that what was important was the togetherness, rivalry and talking about art. It really made me think about the set up of this class, where we interact on the blog rather than in class. I will be honest, I love not schlepping to class every week, as I have always been so much more productive at home than in the classroom. Watching the videos on artists has been incredibly productive, I wish I did it more…I think I need to commit to blogging more. I have had an interesting break through in my thoughts about my process, so I will make a post with some photos in a day or so.

the creativity video was dense in its quickly proposed concepts into insights and decision making of artists, scientists and those dealing with the abstract. Probleming solving is one approach that i used while teaching and is also a tool that i use. And i heartily endorse ..inspiration is for amateurs, the rest of us just get to work.
The use of situations and limitations is a good way to get right to the "doing" of art and is the impetus of our 24 experiment assignment..which has catupulted the class into making leaps and taking chances and finding unthought of solutions.
this was a most stimulating program retta
agrees. Now I want to watch it again - and see everyone's work!
