Fridays @ 9:30 in CSE1 503 (calendar event)
Welcome to CSE590D!
Computer scientists ask what it means for a work or process to be "creative" seriously, seeking formal models and tools to help humans and computers define, explore, and augment solution spaces together. We will cover foundational work on computational approaches to creativity as well as modern applications of this work to fields including the visual arts, music, mathematics, and the sciences.
The seminar will consist of weekly discussions of readings that help us understand creative processes more formally and computationally. Participants are asked to take one hour a week for reading preparation, and to co-lead one discussion. We have background readings prepared, and are looking forward to selecting additional readings based on everyone's research and hobbies. It should be a fun time!
