Symposium: Creativity and technology: exploring new possibilities with our minds and bodies

Technology has many roles to play in human cognition. As new forms of artificial creative aids gain momentum and become accessible, it is time to ponder on the relationship between humans and technology and explore the affordances of new technology with respect to the human creative process and learning. How can new technology augment or hinder human creativity? How could we use new technological tools as a medium for artistic expression? What are the consequences of extensive overreliance on technology? This symposium aims to critically reflect on the impact of new technologies on our minds and bodies and outline ways we can be creative with artificial tools and build a healthy technological partnership.
