| summary | For most philosophers of creativity, a mental process is only creative if there is a creative product at the end of it. Noël Carroll and Jacob Bronowski have argued that an audience’s response to artworks can be creative in the sense that understanding the artwork means re-creating it. I will argue that we should understand creative processes independently of any kind of output, and that we should define the creative process through the role of the imagination. Berys Gaut and Michael Beaney have discussed different models concerning the role of imagination in creating : imagination could either display ideas, or search for ideas, or connect different ideas. I will argue that instead of thinking of different models of which only one can be correct, we should think of different functions the imagination can take in creative processes. Once we look at the role of imagination in terms of different functions, we can see that these functions are at work even in processes that don’t lead to an output. |
