CreativeIT PROGRAM National Science Foundation CreativeIT Program General Program Statistics Program Active 2007 – 2010 $38M Approximate total research funding FY10 Program Statistics $9.5M Granted in FY10 – increased from $5M base budget 172 Proposals submitted 162 Reviewed 7 panels organized in the following categories o Cognitive Science and Design Thinking o Education (formal and informal) o Creativity-Based IT Research o Creativity Support Tools 30 Awarded Proposals (approx. 18% yield)

Interactive Cognition Lab Students at the University of California, San Diego study creative collaboration and distributed cognition. CreativeIT AWARD Distributed Creative Cognition in Choreography PIs: David Kirsch (cognitive science) with Wayne McGregor (choreography) University of California – San Diego National Science Foundation CreativeIT Program New theoretical models for understanding creative cognition and computation. Developing cognitive models of creativity in support of code, agents and robotics; and understanding how creative cognitive models from creative practices can help people harness their creative potentials.

Integrating creativity- based methods, practices & theories to stimulate breakthroughs in science and engineering. Understanding and supporting contributions to computing, information sciences and engineering from the fine, performing and applied arts. CreativeIT Award : CAIRA - a Creative Artificially-Intuitive and Reasoning Agent in the context of ensemble music improvisation PIs: Jonas Braasch (musician, architect, computer science), Selmer C. Bringsjord (artificial intelligence) & Pauline Oliveros (musician, composer) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Communication Acoustics & Aural Architecture Research Lab CAIRA - a Creative Artificially-Intuitive and Reasoning Agent in the Context of Ensemble Music Improvisation National Science Foundation CreativeIT Program

Innovative Educational Approaches that Encourage Creativity. Experiments in multi- disciplinary teaching and learning from design studio labs to thinkering, and serious games. CreativeIT Award : Scratch 2.0: Cultivating Creativity and Collaboration in the Cloud PI: Mitch Resnick (Computer and Learning Sciences) Massachusetts Institute of Technology Lifelong Kindergarten, MIT Media Lab Kids create interactive stories, games, animations, and simulations -- and share their creations with one another online. They learn to think creatively, reason systematically, & work collaboratively.

National Science Foundation CreativeIT Program Software tools that support creative problem solving. The design, development, and evaluation of new software tools and interaction design methods that help people in integrate creative solutions when solving hard problems. CreativeIT Award : Expressing Dramatic Character in Dialogue: A Toolkit for Creative Exploration of Linguistic Style PIs: Marilyn Walker (Natural Language Processing) & Noah Wardrip-Fruin (Media Art & Games Theory) University of California-Santa Cruz Natural Language and Dialogue Systems Lab SpyFeet explores how natural language processing can be incorporated into the narrative structures of game authoring.

Arts + Science + Technology RE/search Strategies a Joint Meeting of the National Science Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts NSF Headquarters, Arlington, Virginia September 15-16, 2010 National Science Foundation Post-Cre ativeIT Initiatives

THE BIG QUESTIONS  How does computing come together with culture?  How can we tap into the passions of today’s youth to provide them with 21 st century skills and employment?  What is the role of the arts in complex issues like climate change?  How can the arts and humanities work in service of solving larger problems?  How can the structures of organizations and educational institutions enable art/science learning?  How can we break down silos in university curriculums to foster these kinds of art/science collaborations?

WORKSHOP PARTICIPANT AREAS OF ENGAGEMENT

Academic standards of publish or perish are often at odds with interesting work that crosses boundaries. Collisions between individual and collective approaches different development and assessment methods different incentives and reward structures different interpretations of the same terms Just plain difference…. Not able to find common ground or deeply shared commitments to sustain interests. Conflicting disciplinary temporal rhythms Not sure what a network of excellence is…. SAMPLING OF AREAS OF CONCERN

Dynamic synergy, accelerated innovation and problem solving Rapid introduction of new research horizons with greater global impact Stronger organization, diversity, and collective lobbying power for national shared research funding Shift of institutional priorities and values to include inter- institutional collaboration Encourage critically needed hybrid collaboration with scientists, engineers, artists, and humanists Create and sustain important online inter-institutional research portals, research societies and peer reviewed periodical literature with higher potential long- term existence Reduce redundancy, manage finite resources better more responsibly, privilege sustainable resource sharing Share internal organizational strategies and policy information Provide functioning and experience based cost / benefit models to new research partners Increase sustainable products, ideas, and exportable methods emerging from co- investment/co- development Enable shared peer- review models, including equitable assessment for tenure/promotion of hybrid faculty engaged in hybrid collaborative research Partnering and sharing among supercomputing centers Shared grants- management technology for funders to create interoperable information about shared research intelligence and efficacy… SAMPLING OF ADVANTAGES TO INTER-INSTITUTIONAL ALLIANCES
