DEFINITION Human-computer co-creativity is collaborative creativity where both the human and the computer take creative responsibility for the generation of a creative artefact. - Kantosalo, Toivanen, Xiao and Toivonen, 2014 Matemaattis-luonnontieteellinen tiedekunta CC-2017 Anna Kantosalo 24/11/2017 3

AIMS The goal of human-computer co-creativity is to enhance both, human and computational creativity. Matemaattis-luonnontieteellinen tiedekunta CC-2017 Anna Kantosalo 24/11/2017 9

AIMS The goal of human-computer co-creativity is to enhance both, human and computational creativity. • Support for both, human and computational creativity • E.g. distributing tasks by strengths: Human does what humans are good at, and computer does what computers are good at Matemaattis-luonnontieteellinen tiedekunta CC-2017 Anna Kantosalo 24/11/2017 10

AIMS The goal of human-computer co-creativity is to enhance both, human and computational creativity. • Support for both, human and computational creativity • E.g. distributing tasks by strengths: Human does what humans are good at, and computer does what computers are good at • Creating new ways to create • E.g. new intelligent digital instruments for musicians Matemaattis-luonnontieteellinen tiedekunta CC-2017 Anna Kantosalo 24/11/2017 11

MODELLING HCCC ITERATIVE CO-CREATIVITY AS A SEARCH • To be able to discuss problems and difficulties in human computer co-creation from a computational perspective a computational model is needed. • The Alternating co-creativity model extends Wiggins’ Creative Systems Framework to an iterative co-creative scenario • Look for full definition in article Kantosalo and Toivonen 2016 Matemaattis-luonnontieteellinen tiedekunta CC-2017 Anna Kantosalo 24/11/2017 18

MODELLING HCCC ITERATIVE CO-CREATIVITY AS A SEARCH 10 10 • It is described for two participants, but in principle, it scales up indefinitely • When reduced to the case of one praticipant, it becomes Wiggins’ original model • It assumes indirect interaction via the generated artefact!
