Human creativity and culture
Creativity and creative language are uniquely human, we hold creativity in high esteem and it is equated with individual genius and achievement. The creativity of a society is essential to our evaluation of other cultures, and to the future of our own.

Some of the key questions include:

Creativity, art and computers: what do we mean by creativity, can machines be creative?

Creativity and consciousness: Does creativity depend on conscious processes, unconsciousness processes or their interaction?

Creativity and synaesthesia: does seeing the world differently lead to creative insights?
This conversation will explore creativity and human identity, examine the creativity of people affected by mental illness, neurological disease and unusual experiences and ask what we know - or can know - of the brain mechanisms that produce creative behaviour.
