Abstract
On October 16, 2014, Shannon Steen (Theater, Dance and Performance Studies) presented research from her project “Creative Class Civil Wars,” which explores the ways our concepts of creativity are shifting to exclude those in the arts. Her presentation examined how those changes are rooted in the history by which “creativity” became a legitimate object of academic research.
This talk was part of the Reading Cities, Sensing Cities colloquium presented by the Global Urban Humanities Initiative at UC Berkeley.
