On Christmas Eve, Channel NewsAsia aired an episode on AI & Creativity. If you're interested in watching the episode, check out this link.
For those not in SE Asia, you can watch the segment here:
Interested in how to evaluate computational creativity (or systems that claim to be computationally creative)? Have a look at our ACM paper, hot off the press!

Our trance paper (behavioral psychology + computational modeling of music perception) is now out! Paper is free to read/download... click *here* to read about how the harmonic structure of trance music influences our enjoyment of the music.
The workshop will pave the way for a new interdisciplinary research direction: Creativity Science. It gathers the world-leading researchers in computational creativity specialising in a number of application areas, such as visual art, language, mathematics, and music. Methodologically, creativity will be modelled using computational frameworks based on cognitively inspired and psychologically informed theories such as, for example, analogy and conceptual blending.
I'm very much looking forward to the Workshop on metaphor generation, conceptual spaces, and more at the Jožef Stefan Institute in Ljubljana, Slovenia!
Tomorrow is the ICCBR-15 Workshop on Experience and Creativity in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, where I will be presenting a talk entitled, "Schematic processing as a framework for learning and creativity in CBR and CC." The workshop promises to be very stimulating!
Next week I will be presenting a talk entitled 'Conceptualizing Creativity: From Distributional Semantics to Conceptual Spaces' at the Sixth International Conference on Computational Creativity, ICCC 2015, in Park City, Utah.
