Creativity Symposium
Here are some of the projects and opportunities that are in the works as a direct result of the Program for Creativity and Innovation and the Creativity Symposium:
>> A publication of reviewed papers delivered at the Symposium edited by Lynn Book and David Phillips of Wake Forest University.
>> Click here for the website that developed from a four-person panel from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts. "What developed was an involved and incredibly stimulating extended conversation [over the preceding year]. It was this energy that we brought with us to Wake Forest in March. In looking to document this process we decided that four separate essays on the topic of creativity simply would not do. We decided to approach this task creatively and develop a written format that would best capture our conversation. None of us had ever attempted an interactive essay before, so you are the first outside of our group to view the results." --Dean Wilcox, Associate Dean of General Studies, UNSCA
>> A video documentary of the events of the Symposium by Wake graduate Sam Smartt (his first job for his new video production venture after graduation!)
>> New partnerships between participants in the Symposium, including a collaboration between 2 regional W.I.R.E.D. entities -- Piedmont Triad Partnership and in southwestern Michigan, as well as others.
>>Afton Vechery, WFU Class of 2011, received a student internship with David Edwards' Harvard students at his art and science venture Le Laboratoire in Paris this summer.
>> Wake alums and Fifth Year Entrepreneurship Institute Fellows Bill Brown and Jessie Vogel received a competitive one month artist residency at Elsewhere Collaborative in Greensboro, NC after serving on a Symposium Panel with the director. Click here to visit their blog documenting their project.
>> Discussions and planning at the Wake Forest Medical Center initiating from a paper delivered at the Symposium by Dr. Dwayne Godwin and colleagues on models for creative collaborations within scientific research contexts.
