- initially added to Art
- http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jonmc/research/publications.html
- "The role of the creator has shifted from the direct creation of artefacts to the design of processes that create artefacts: an approach dubbed ‘metacreation’ by theorist Mitchell Whitelaw"
- "human-computer synergistics, where the machine enables modes of creative thought and activity currently unattainable." (p418)
- "Open Problem 1 To devise more formalised and objective definitions of ‘art’, ‘artistic creativity’ and ‘novelty’. To understand the processes behind these terms in greater detail than exists today, from a perspective suited to developing computational models that simulate creative behaviour. The definitions should be broad enough to cover a variety of artistic practices and acts, but with sufficient detail to make them practically useful in advancing EMA research. " (p419)
- mention of Wundt curve
- "Open Problem 2 To devise formalised fitness functions that are capable of measuring human aesthetic properties of phenotypes. These functions must be machine representable and practically computable. " (p433)
- mention of D’Arcy Thompson
- "What is needed then is a system capable of introducing novelty within itself." (p439)
- "Open Problem 3 To devise a system where the genotype, the phenotype and the mechanism that produces phenotype from genotype are capable of automated and robust modification, selection and, hence, evolution. " (p439)
- "Organisms can be considered as complex systems that adapt to their ecological, environmental and social niches. In this way, creative systems could be considered ‘mirrors’ of their environment;" (p442)
- "Open Problem 4 To define creative universes that can be implemented in computer simulation. These universes may be highly pragmatic and individual, and even simplistic." (p442)
- "Open Problem 5 To create EMA devices and systems that produce art recognised by humans for its artistic contribution (as opposed to any purely technical fetish or fascination). " (p443)
- mention of the Andy Clark's extended mind
- "Open Problem 6 To devise unique kinds of evolutionary ‘software instruments’ that offer the possibility of deep creative engagement and enable the creative exploration of generative computational phase-spaces. " (p445)
- "Open Problem 7 To create artificial ecosystems where agents create and recognise their own creativity. The goal of this open problem is to help understand creativity and emergence, to investigate the possibilities of ‘art-as-itcould- be’. " (p447)
- "Open Problem 8 To develop art theories of evolutionary and generative art" (p447)
