  • Novelty and Utility

    Johannes Lehmann, Rachel Garber Cole et al.ARTICLELeonardo2023References: 23

    This paper builds on research around novelty and utility to argue that the value of arts thinking should be applied in the generation of scientific questions. Arts thinking is often playful, less goal oriented, and can lead to new modes of questioning.
