Chaos & Complex Systems Seminar
Engaging the flow: a creative dialogue
Date: Tuesday, November 11th
Time: 12:05 pm
Place: 4274 Chamberlin (Refreshments will be served)
Speaker: Harry Webne-Behrman, UW Office of Human Resource Development
Abstract: Creative conversations don't mechanically follow 'outline form,' they emerge from the synergies and interactions of participants in hard-to-predict ways. Is there a way to facilitate such dialogues, rather than direct them, so 1 + 1 >2? Is there a way to capture the creative ideas that emerge? Building from theories on synchronicity in innovation and the process used by Nathan Myhrvold at Intellectual Ventures, the Chaos & Complexity Seminar will engage in a creative dialogue whose outcome is unknown and whose parameters will be co-created by the group in the weeks ahead. Join us for fascinating conversation and see what happens!
