Neuroscience and creativity. Milestone project

Abstract

To find moments and spaces of interaction between artists and thinkers has been the attempt of the Milestone Project, a cultural project than in recent years is taking place in Girona. An example of this has been the topic «Neuroscience and creativity». Power is a sort of altruistic act, it leaves in the individual’s hands the responsibility of what they can do with their creativity. «You can. Your imagination is your most powerful asset». Power counts on the help of certain types of knowledge that insist on the creative character of human consciousness. «Consciousness is creative consciousness of the world», that is what neuroscience states. With neurosciences, creativity is no more a monopoly of a minority of eccentrics and it becomes a universal heritage. What consequences could the application of these techniques have in different fields such as morale, education, politics...?
