"The principles of examining creativity through the lens of neuroscience reveal a lot of the same principles that exist with AI, in a sort of a stochastic sense, And it establishes a different vehicle to look at the mechanism of creativity-through a mechanistic lens, through the lens of behavioral neurology-and I think if someone who was brilliant with AI were to come and look at this, they would see a lot of similarities and it would be, I think, very useful data."
"Jake Broder's play, UnRavelled, featured original music and sound design by Mark Grey, yet they were just two artists in a powerful creative alliance of theater-makers, neuroscientists, musicians, actors and brain health clinicians, all to elevate a true story, that of the remarkable connection between the work of Canadian painter Dr. Anne Adams (1940-2007) and French composer Maurice Ravel (1875-1937). Both Adams and Ravel lived with the same brain disease, frontotemporal dementia (FTD), almost 100 years apart."
An interdisciplinary theatrical production united Silicon Valley scientists, SJSU School of Music alumni, theater-makers, neuroscientists, musicians, actors and brain health clinicians to dramatize the linked stories of Canadian painter Dr. Anne Adams and French composer Maurice Ravel, both affected by frontotemporal dementia nearly a century apart. The production used original music and sound design to humanize dementia and promote empathy while proposing that studying creativity through behavioral neurology can reveal mechanisms relevant to treatment. The creative team suggested parallels between the neuroscience of creativity and AI and encouraged investor and institutional engagement to accelerate research toward cures.
