Collaborations in Creativity
Description
This edited book explores the nature of creative activities using the seven C's of creativity framework, with a focus on collaboration. Addressing both Human-Human collaboration and Human-Computer collaboration with different technologies, it explores the relationships and constraints involved in collaborations amongst individuals, teams, and organizations, and offers valuable insights into the role of AI and robots in creative activities. Throughout the chapters, leading scholars in complementary fields (e.g., cognitive, ergonomics, social, industrial & organizational, educational psychology, as well as engineering and media architecture) discuss different types of collaboration in creative situations, including working groups and interactions with AI-enabled technologies (e.g., generative AI and social robots), analyze their barriers and challenges, propose models of these complex activities, and suggest ways to achieve efficient collaborative creative activities that are tailored to the needs of humans and the environments in which they operate.
A useful read for anyone involved in fields requiring collective creativity, such as design, team management, ergonomics, engineering, teaching, creative writing, filmmaking, or the arts, this book also advances research in creativity studies by combining theoretical and applied approaches.
