I. Brain Synchronicity and Creativity

Making the Whole Brain Work Together

 

 

 

An artist speaks:

"It was during the first few years that we realized the presence of a dualism deep down within us, where another person, whom we ourselves do not know, tends, at the moment of the creative act, to supplant the person we believe ourselves to be and would like to be. It is difficult to bring these two individualities into accord, yet it is upon their accord that the development of a personality largely depends." --- Gino Severini

Association is a left hemispheric thinking process based on finding functional relationships between two objects or contexts.

We are working collectively to reform visual arts education by developing teacher-designed and classroom tested strategies to create a "Living Curriculum Database" of thousands of effective methods for establishing basic arts education in the schools.
