Abstract
The course "Creativity and the Emerging Technologies" utilizes technologies and the Internet to stimulate discussion on the perspectives and roles of creativity. Although a Web-based course, students gain hands-on experience with new technologies and software programs. These technologies encourage students to examine the dissolving boundaries between previously distinct art forms, the interactions between artist/creator and audience/user, interface design, figure/ground issues, creative uses of space and time, the emergence of new genres, and structural and technological concerns. Using a variety of activities, students explore a range of artistic disciplines, creative theories and dilemmas, and examine the definition and nature of artistic expression. "Creativity and the Emerging Technologies" is multidisciplinary, a merging of the traditional disciplines of music, communication, art, film, theatre and dance, liberal arts, and technology in cyberspace and the classroom.
