They begin to sketch (tentatively) a unifying “theory of creativity.” Such theory might help us, they hope, navigate a broad swath of tools and techniques that vie for our attention.  ----Chapters: 0:00 Introduction 2:22 Theory of Creativity 9:48 Theoretical layers 14:08 Marketing example21:32 More trees and metaphors 28:40 Intermediary tiers36:26 Conclusion ----Support The Craft:Subscribe to Dwelling - https://carterdavisjohnson.substack.comSend feedback or ideas - [email protected] art by Elizabeth Newell.
