Abstract

This introductory chapter frames the background to our study of creativity and innovation, which consists of intersecting disciplinary developments and historical conditions. This chapter introduces the subject of creativity as studied by some prominent psychologists over the past century and links it to more contemporary conceptualisations, including its economic and cultural manifestation within the discourse of the creative industries. The chapter sets the scene for the chapters that follow by focusing on the importance of human connectedness in understanding creativity and the everyday practice of innovation. We present the argument that ‘everyday dynamics’, as a shorthand for the ethical dynamism of creativity that depends on and harnesses human connectedness, can become a mechanism for assembling a new form of reality to address the problematic complexities of our world.
