Convegno Internazionale

Creativity, Extended Cognition and Artificial Intelligence

Creatività e cognizione estesa: una giornata di studio sulla mente naturale e artificiale

Venerdì, 3 Febbraio 2017

Sala Malliani, via Festa del Perdono 7 - Università degli Studi di Milano

The proposed workshop is aimed at scholars and experts interested in the whole world of creativity and the related psychological and neuro-cognitive mechanisms. In order to bring a broad approach to the theme, allowing a systematic comparison of perspectives and disciplines, we invited both Italian and foreigners speakers from different areas of study. In particular, the workshop aims to contaminate the traditional academic thinking with the suggestions coming from the world of contemporary art, as well as from the engineering world of creativity targeting practical applications, marketing, the development of technological applications. Finally, it will be introduced and discussed the critical issue of the creativity mediated by technology and, as a counterpart, the creative mood of technology.
