Resilient Hub

The proposal describes a community hub; a site located within the suburban and urban built environment, made up of an arrangement of community-run buildings and facilities. Modern sustainable technologies and building typologies will be promoted and community interaction encouraged. Multiple functions will work in unison, with all members of the surrounding community interfacing with it. Through participation, collaboration and creative contribution, the Resilient Hub will demonstrate in a tangible, real-time way the connection between energy, water, food production, food preparation, food consumption, compost and energy use. The knowledge and practices gained will proliferate in community members’ daily practices and help to accelerate the uptake of sustainable technology, building construction and use. Involving the community at the design stage will further integrate the relevance of these sustainable methods. All these aspects combine to challenge us to think in a more integrated way about our future neighbourhoods and how all aspects of them are part of an interconnected system.

Sanford Meisner, Improvisation, and the Art of Psychoanalysis

ABSTRACT This paper challenges the strictures in psychoanalysis that seem to decry creativity. Sanford Meisner, a renowned theater teacher, trained actors to perform the same script night after night with an unpredictable sense of freshness. This complex accomplishment was achieved through improvisation. These improvisations relied on imagination and creativity. Meisner’s approach afforded intense, affective engagement between two or more actors. The script created the context for interaction, while improvisation created the affective engagement that was unpredictably different with each performance. The case of Roberto demonstrates how Meisner improvisations afforded a creative entry into Roberto’s feelings of detached isolation. Through these improvisations, impasses in the treatment were transformed. New dimensions in the analyst/patient connection unfolded, and new understanding of the source of the patient’s protracted, detached, isolated, depressed states emerged. Roberto’s discovering new-found satisfaction not only with his analyst but in all relationships supports the value of improvisation as a creative contribution to psychoanalysis.

The Sound of Water: sensing a wetland intervention through interactive environmental audio

The Sound of Water ( https://flow-mer.org.au/napnap ) microsite documents an environmental intervention at Nap Nap Swamp, a wetland in the western reaches of Australia’s Murrumbidgee River. A collaboration between a designer (Whitelaw) and an ecologist (Wassens), it was supported by the Commonwealth Environmental Water Office. We use audiovisual data storytelling to engage audiences with Nap Nap as it transitions from a dry to wet state. Focusing on a 9-day period in mid-2020, we combine audio and hydrological data to show the ecosystem’s response to a managed environmental flow, narrating this change through the wetland’s charismatic frog species, including the threatened Southern Bell Frog. In this paper we reflect on the technical and creative contributions of the project in visualising environmental audio, as well as its significance for wider practice. We highlight the value of creatively re-purposing ecological data and the importance of multi-stakeholder networks, and we argue that our celebration in this project of environmental management, intervention and care should be a key concern for future digital ecologies practices.

Glitchy, Caring, Tactical

This paper directs attention to the parameters of creative resistance to large-scale commercial digital platforms. It does so by enhancing the understanding of minor tech through the analysis and case study of the artwork, VPN. While minor tech might sound unfamiliar to the many, examples of its existence are at the same time incredibly familiar through examples of digital commoning, sharing of skills, and organisational systems. In the case of VPN, the work existed as a growing emancipatory multimedia archive, executed as a transparent server architecture revealing its technical workings to its users. This format exemplified tactics of intentional glitches through an artful inclusion of persons, space, and objects. By identifying the elements of tactics and care within the VPN, the paper draws parallels of overlapping tendencies within the movement of minor tech. Drawing on Olga Gorionova's research on 'Shadow librarians' and including former digital examples of knowledge sharing furthermore assists in sketching a web development towards the nature of minor tech and VPN. By analysing the significance of these initiatives, the paper raises the questions: What are the drives across creative resistance practices? And (how) do such creative contributions help to critically nuance various existing understandings of large-scale digital platforms?

Rejecting Innovation: How Italian Public Employees are Killing Creativity and Digitalisation

Within the general context of new ideas generation, there is a grey area that still concerns the organizational design solutions related to creativity. In fact, if personal characteristics and other community-related issues have been quite explored, some organizational mechanisms still need to be deepened. In this paper, we aim to investigate the impact of professional networks on Innovative Work Behaviour in the local government to achieve public value. We investigate the contribution of creativity in the digitalization of Italian public administration considering the contribution of public employees to developing knowledge management. Moreover, we investigate a community of 190 employees of municipalities divided into three macro categories: deputy employees, Managers and Senior Managers. An OSL regression model has been used to understand to what extent the degree of collaboration and advice among employees and their propensity to adopt digitalization in ordinary practice considering social capital variables. What emerges from the OLS regression is that despite accelerating the ordinary work using the leverage of digitalization and knowledge management, there is the custom of not applying the enormous benefit of process re-engineering and continuing their work attitude in what the economic literature defines as “the comfort zone”. The results consolidate the current literature about the creation of public value showing the resilience of public employees to change their state of mind reflecting any kind of innovation.

Аудиовизуальное произведение как сложный объект авторского права

The article analyzes the construction of an audiovisual work as a complex object from the point of view of coauthorship. To this end, the genesis of the existing subject composition of the authors of an audiovisual work in Russian law is investigated, and approaches to the defi nition of the authors of an audiovisual work in international legislation are studied. When an audiovisual work is perceived as a multilevel copyright object, its components will be a script, direction, musical accompaniment and other independent works within the framework of the doctrine of a complex copyright object. On the basis of this doctrine, the Russian legislator identifi es four authors of an audiovisual work whose creative contribution is the most signifi cant: a production director, a script writer, a composer who created a musical work specifi cally for an audiovisual work, and a production designer. It is proved that the closed list of authors of an audiovisual work is a characteristic feature of European legal systems that are part of the Romano–Germanic legal family. The Anglo-Saxon approach assumes the granting of all rights to the audiovisual work of the producer.

Rights to the Result of Intellectual Activity of Artificial Intelligence in Terms of the Dualism of Intellectual Law

This article reveals the author's view on the issues arising in the field of intellectual property rights in connection with the development of artificial intelligence systems. The topic of the research is touched upon due to the fact that the modern technological renewal in the modern world is so large-scale that many scientists are inclined not only to historical changes, but also to anthropological ones: technology becomes dominant in an inextricable connection with the human operator. In the modern Russian legislation there is no institutional fixation of norms of law regulating the relations connected with creation and use of results of artificial intelligence. In the global legal field the recognition of artificial intelligence as the author of the invention has been an open question for a long time. The article considers different points of view on the definition of artificial intelligence, including foreign sources. The author argues about the applicability of the concept of "inventor" in relation to artificial intelligence. The author's position in relation to the results of artificial intelligence is presented on the basis of the principle of intellectual property duality, where the main idea is the separation of non-property and property rights to the results of artificial intelligence. Methods of analysis, synthesis, modeling, comparative-legal were used. In the end conclusions are made about the recognition of authorship on the result of artificial intelligence, based on the creative contribution to its creation and work, the emergence and transfer of exclusive rights.

Intellectual property on computer programs created as a result of execution of an employment agreement (contract).

The article examines the legal regulation of the use of computer programs by combining economic and civil legislation. The author notes that the contractual aspect is decided by the norms of commercial law, while the legal status of the author and the legal regime of the computer program are determined by civil legislation. Special attention is paid to the resolution of copyright issues for computer programs created in connection with the performance of an employment contract. The author believes that such issues should be settled with the help of a civil law contract. In areas where the duties of employees involve the creation of computer programs in the process of performing a labor function, it is recommended to use local legal acts, such as regulations, standard contracts, etc. It goes on to say that an employer may have certain powers in relation to copyright, in particular, to require the preservation of the integrity of the work and to prevent its distortion or alteration. In addition, the employer has the right to demand that the author’s name be indicated on all copies of the work and that his name be mentioned when the work is used. Summarizing, the article calls for the establishment of a clear regulation of relations regarding the use of computer programs, in particular, by combining economic and civil legislation. The author emphasizes the importance of concluding civil law contracts in cases where computer programs are created within the framework of labor relations.Such contracts, together with local regulations, will help resolve copyright issues and establish the employer’s authority to use the works.In addition, the article emphasizes the need to ensure a balance between the interests of the authors of computer programs and the rights of employers. On the one hand, authors should be ensured recognition of their creative contribution, protection of copyright and recognition of their right to determine the further use of their works. On the other hand, employers have the right to reasonably use works created by employees as part of their work duties, for the purpose of business development and ensuring the efficient operation of the company. Legal regulation of relations on the contractual use of computer programs should contribute to the creation of a clear legal framework that ensures the protection of the interests of all parties and promotes the development of an innovative environment in the field of software.

Vplyv shtuchnoho intelektu na kryterii oryhinalnosti v avtorskomu pravi

With recent technological advances in the field of artificial intelligence, new questions arise regarding the determination of copyright in works created using artificial intelligence technologies. This article examines the criterion of originality of a work in the legal systems of different countries and its importance for providing legal protection by copyright law to objects created with the use of artificial intelligence. Originality acts as a subjective criterion for determining the possibility of legal protection of a work as an object of copyright. Attention is focused on the lack of a single approach to establishing the originality of the work in the characterized countries. In particular, in the EU, the originality of a work is reduced to the personal creation of the author, in the USA — to the minimal creative contribution of the person-author, in United Kingdom — to its creation by the work and skills of a person, his or her efforts, in Ukraine — it is reduced to the criterion by which the work is characterized, which is the result of the author’s own intellectual creative activity, as well as a reflection of his or her creative decisions made during the creation of such a work. It is noted that all countries at the current stage are focusing their attention on the development of new legislation in the field of copyright regulation of objects created using artificial technologies, which is due to the desire for innovation and the introduction of modern digital technologies and artificial intelligence. That is why in the law-making process it is important to ensure that legal norms are flexible and correspond to changes in the technological environment, allowing to promote innovation and cultural development. Overall, it makes a valuable contribution to understanding the contemporary challenges of changing technologies and the impact of artificial intelligence on copyright law. It emphasizes the need for a balance between protecting the rights of creators and ensuring access to new technologies and innovations for the general benefit of society. Legal challenges related to determining authorship of works generated by artificial intelligence are discussed. The importance of further scientific research in this area is noted.

Creativity, innovation and employment growth in sub-Saharan Africa

PurposeAlthough employees' creativity is vital for firm innovation and overall performance, little is done to examine the potential association between creativity and employment. This paper investigates the contribution of employees' creativity, process and product innovations to firm-level employment growth.Design/methodology/approachThe authors use data from World Bank Enterprise Survey and Innovation Follow-up Survey on 9503 firms covering the period 2012–2015 in 11 countries from sub-Saharan Africa and Heckman's two-stage estimation model.FindingsThis study's results indicate a positive role of creativity on firm-level employment growth. In addition, the authors find evidence for a complementary effect arising from the combination of creativity with managerial experience, staff level of education and their associated skills, in contrast, combining creativity with internal or external R&D results in a substitution effect. Interestingly, these synergy effects are pronounced for SMEs but absent for large firms.Practical implicationsPolicy makers in developing economies of sub-Saharan Africa should stimulate company management to use free time offered to employees to be creative in the workplace as one of their key strategies to stimulate employment growth. This strategy is expected to be particularly fruitful among SMEs having some managerial experience and skilled stuff.Originality/valueIn contribution to innovative work practices and workforce creativity, the authors demonstrate that providing employees with free time could be an alternative way to enhance the focal firms' performance.

Human Creative Contribution to AI-Based Output – One Just Can(’t) Get Enough

Abstract The article attempts to clarify the issue of the copyrightability of AI-based output by streamlining the assessment of human creative contribution to the creation process assisted by generative AI systems. It starts with briefly outlining the state of the art of modern generative AI systems contributing to a better understanding of AI. Then the article presents a five-part test to distinguish between sufficient and insufficient human creative participation and contemplates the following authorship scenarios: sole authorship of AI designers or users; their joint authorship; and non-authorship. The article proceeds with applying the test to output produced using Midjourney, a generative AI tool. It concludes that in many cases of using AI to create output human creative participation remains sufficient for copyright protection eligibility. However, there are also developments and circumstances that drive the increase in ‘authorless’ AI-based output. Moreover, depending on the specific circumstances, using even the same AI system may lead to different test results.

A new perspective on time pressure and creativity: Distinguishing employees' radical versus incremental creativity

SummaryThe role of time pressure on individual employees' creativity remains ambiguous, with prior studies reporting positive, negative, and curvilinear relations. The present research aims to address this issue. Drawing from the attentional focus model, we (a) distinguish the consequences of time pressure for radical versus incremental creativity and (b) introduce external and internal knowledge scanning as distinct mediating mechanisms. Moreover, we cast employees' long‐range and short‐range planning as moderators of the indirect time pressure–creativity linkages. Time‐lagged data from 203 employees and their supervisors revealed that time pressure hampered employees' radical creativity by undermining their external scanning, with long‐range planning alleviating this negative indirect relationship. In contrast, we found an indirect, inverted U‐shaped linkage between time pressure and incremental creativity through internal scanning. Unexpectedly, this indirect relation was not contingent on employees' short‐range planning. These results offer a new theoretical perspective that helps to reconcile previous, seemingly contradictory findings on the relationship between time pressure and creativity. Moreover, our results offer practical implications for modern workplaces that require employees' creative contributions under conditions of time scarcity.

Unveiling the tapestry of Arab American writings

Arab Americans living in the United States are represented in the intriguing and varied body of Arab American Literature. It is a diverse and significant body of writing that reflects the experiences and perspectives of Arab Americans in the United States. It explores powerful examples of how difficult it is to deal with identity, heritage, and belonging concerns in a diverse community. Arab American writers, from Ameen Rihani to Naomi Shihab Nye, have made creative contributions with their viewpoints, illuminating the rich tapestry of life in Arab America in everything from provocative novels to tender poetry and perceptive essays. However, Arab American authors have faced numerous challenges, including prejudice, stereotypes, language barriers, and limited publishing opportunities. Despite these obstacles, they have persisted in using their literary works as a means of self-expression, cultural preservation, and empowerment. To promote the visibility and acknowledgment of Arab American voices, readers, institutions, and literary communities must actively support and endorse Arab American authors and their work. Arab American Literature contributes to a more inclusive and interconnected society, dispelling myths and fostering empathy and understanding across cultural divides.
