HODGES UNIVERSITY + CREATIVITY
This March I had the pleasure of receiving an invitation to give one of my Creativity Lectures at Hodges University, in the beautiful City of Naples, Florida.
Hodges is a relatively young University which is growing with giant steps.
Sponsored by the Naples Arts Association, and coordinated by Professors Aysegul Timur and William M. Gritz, we spent close to 2 hours exploring some basic (and not so basic concepts) of the creative process. From the neurological to the practical, we had a very interesting time with a varied audience which included University Staff and students, as well as writers, artists and sculptors from the Naples area.
Thank you
to Professors Gritz and Timur, to the Executive Director of the NAA, Aimee Scheler, and to everyone involved for the opportunity to exchange ideas and experiences.
It is striking to see how most people, no matter where they live and how different their cultures may be, looking for answers to the same issues and, more or less, in the same places. It is perhaps, as Bill Evans used to say, the Universal Mind of man that takes us all towards similar goals.
Until next time!
