Paired constraints
The creativity problem is the product of operant conditioning. Both experts and novices get stuck in more-or-less successful solutions. The problem has two parts: how do you start, and, how do you continue, to do something new? The paired constraint paradigm presented in this paper is a framework, a template, for solving the problem. The framework has three parts: a structure (the problem space), a strategy (the paired constraints), and a process…
Creativity From Constraints
Variability, constraints, and creativity
Recent experimental research suggests 2 things. The first is that along with learning how to do something, people also learn how variably or differently to continue doing it. The second is that high variability is maintained by constraining, precluding a currently successful, often repetitive solution to a problem. In this view, Claude Monet's habitually high level of variability in painting was acquired during his childhood and early apprentices…
