The dynamic of creative brain

Uncover the levers and obstacles that pave the way of creative processes.


Creativity consists in creating new and useful solutions that meet specific needs.
It includes a set of creative processes, like imagination and adaptation, which are largely subconscious, nested, and hardly dissociable. They can be fast and sudden or, by contrast, they can be time-consuming and lasting.

As a consequence, creativity is often conceived as a chaotic and non-linear journey that only a few people with peculiar intellectual abilities manage to go through.
This vision feeds a series of myths on creative personality traits, on random and unpredictable discoveries and "aha" moments, and on the role of the right brain in creative processes.

Advances in cognitive psychology and neuroscience shed light on brain networks associated with creative processes and on how these brain networks interact with each other.
These findings reveal how the brain makes new connections and which ingredients smooth the dynamic of creative processes.

In this conference, I will present the levers and obstacles of creative processes according to brain dynamic.
I will present the cognitive challenges that the brain faces to move from imaging to adapting new and useful solutions, including "aha" moments.
