Third-generation creativity

Teresa Swirski

pp. 145-159

Creativity is not defined by an essence, but by the way it varies and evolves amongst our situated practices. In his book "Inventing Our Selves", Nikolas Rose (1998) describes the subjectification and spatialisation of human being as "the target of a multiplicity of types of work, more like a latitude and longitude at which different vectors of different speeds intersect" (p. 37). These dynamic and spatial principles can be transferred to a simple paper object – a möbius strip – mesmerising in its fluidity, concaveness and shadow, by the artist Benbennick (2005).
