Book Artificial Intelligence  Co Creation and Creativity

Download or read book Artificial Intelligence Co Creation and Creativity written by Francisco Tigre Moura and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-01 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artificial intelligence (AI) has deeply impacted our understanding of creativity and the human ability to generate creative outputs. New applications for creative tasks are rapidly evolving, and new tools are constantly being developed with much greater optimal capabilities. Importantly, the success of implementing such tools for creative tasks is still heavily dependent on human supervision and input. Therefore, it is vital to understand and critically reflect on the nature of co-creative processes between humans and AI. This book addresses such issues and provides insights into how humans can augment their capabilities for generating creative and innovative outputs by successfully co-creating with AI. The book is intentionally divided into three main parts to allow for a comprehensive and holistic perspective on human and AI co-creation for creative tasks. The sections are divided as follows: Part 1: “Principles of AI and Creativity”, Part 2: “Critical Issues on Artificial Co-Creation”, and Part 3: “Industry-Specific Discussions”. Consequently, the book provides a holistic insight on the topic, covering various issues and perspectives and enabling an accessible read to a broad audience. For example, chapters cover examples across different industry sectors, including music, arts, science, and management. Furthermore, the book covers critical questions involving copyrights, ethical concerns, relationship with algorithms, and context-based issues. Only by critically reflecting on the intrinsic issues of AI and learning how to work with it effectively for creative purposes will we be able to benefit from its full potential to augment human creative abilities in an appropriate manner. This novel, edited collection is an essential read for scholars working on the intersection of AI, creativity, arts, and management.

Download or read book Life Subjectivity Art written by Roland Breeur and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-04 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains essays written by eminent phenomenologists & scholars closely related to R. Bernet, a person and a philosopher (colleagues, friends and collaborators, former students). The intellectual and worldwide authority of R. Bernet's work is well represented by the list of contributors, as well as by the content of their chapters. In a sense, this volume is a good indication of the importance of Bernet's own books, articles and classes. The editors have chosen to concentrate the contributions on what could be estimated to be one of the three major themes of his philosophical itinerary: life, seen from a phenomenological point of view, its relation to subjectivity, experiences and consciousness, and both seen as the ground for an original reflection on art (paintings).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Download PDF for free from: http://martenscentre.eu/publications/active-ageing-solidarity-and-responsibility-ageing-society Current demographic changes are a major factor in the increasing societal interest in the contributions older generations can make to the development and cohesion of society. This study argues that the traditional view of ageing is gradually being replaced by a new perspective, one with increased focus on older people's capabilities, resources and potentials. It suggests that population ageing does not imply inevitable declines in a society's competitiveness or reduced intergenerational solidarity. Amongst other policy recommendations, the study proposes flexibility in age limits, to prevent exclusion of older people from areas of societal responsibility. The study encourages a stronger focus on the productive participation of older people in political and public discourse, and support for civil engagement of older people through mechanisms such as incentive systems.

Book The Spirit of Creativity

Download or read book The Spirit of Creativity written by Gottlieb Guntern and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2012-07-10 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spirit of Creativity is a systemic study of human creativity. It offers a fascinating visual model of the creative process consisting of four major stages: stage I, the interplay of chaos and order; stage II, creative production; stage III, cultural selection; stage IV, morpho-evolution and morpho-elimination of created products and forms. The author analyzes the seven phases (germination, inspiration, preparation, incubation, illumination, elaboration and evaluation) of stage II, leading from a vague hunch to a product meeting the criteria of creativity. A vast number of examples, taken from all continents and various cultures as well as from art, technology and science and other fields of human endeavor, illustrate how cultural recognition and rejection influence the creative processes of individuals and teams. The author demonstrates the tremendous impact of the Mongol Empire, the Silk Road, and the medieval Muslim golden age on the origin of the European Renaissance.

Download or read book The Creative University written by Michael A. Peters and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of the “Creative University” signals that higher education stands at the center of the creative economy indicating the growing significance of intellectual capital and innovation for economic growth and cultural development. Increasingly economic activity is socialised through new media and depends on immaterial and digital goods. This immaterial economy includes new international labour markets that demand analytic skills, global competencies and an understanding of markets in tradeable knowledges. Delivery modes in education are being reshaped. Global cultures are spreading in the form of knowledge and research networks. Openness, networking, cross-border people movement, flows of ideas, capital and scholars are changing the conditions of imagining and producing creative work. The economic aspect of creativity refers to the production of new ideas, aesthetic forms, scholarship, original works of art and cultural products, as well as scientific inventions and technological innovations. It embraces both open source communication as well as commercial intellectual property. This collection explores these ideas as the basis for a new development agenda for universities.

Book Dialogues between Media

Download or read book Dialogues between Media written by Paul Ferstl and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-01-18 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comparative Literature is changing fast with methodologies, topics, and research interests emerging and remerging. The fifth volume of ICLA 2016 proceedings, Dialogues between Media, focuses on the current interest in inter-arts studies, as well as papers on comics studies, further testimony to the fact that comics have truly arrived in mainstream academic discourse. "Adaptation" is a key term for the studies presented in this volume; various articles discuss the adaptation of literary source texts in different target media - cinematic versions, comics adaptations, TV series, theatre, and opera. Essays on the interplay of media beyond adaptation further show many of the strands that are woven into dialogues between media, and thus the expanding range of comparative literature.

Readers will learn - How to think of the term "stratagem" - What kinds of stratagems one might find (e.g. from antiquity, the "Stratagemata" of Frontin) - What creative and systems thinking is and how it expresses itself in the development of ruses - How one might go about thinking up stratagems This book is meant for everyone who handles social conflict as well as those with an interest in creative and systems thinking.
