“If ideas become machines that make art, why can’t we design those machines in ways that preserve beautiful accidents where individual human judgment drives the creative process? LeWitt’s genius wasn’t in systematizing art-making per se but in designing systems that still required human interpretation—algorithms that needed the serendipities of manual labor to complete.”
Every week I send out articles I encounter from around the web. Subject matter ranges from hard knowledge about teaching to research about creativity and cognitive science to stories from other industries that, by analogy, inform what we do as educators. This breadth helps us see our work in new ways.
Readers include teachers, school leaders, university overseers, conference organizers, think tank workers, startup founders, nonprofit leaders, and people who are simply interested in what’s happening in education. They say it helps them keep tabs on what matters most in the conversation surrounding schools, teaching, learning, and more.
