S3E35 - Chatting With Adam Green

In this episode I chat with neuroscientist Adam Green about the science of creativity. Adam Green is a founder and current president of The Society for the Neuroscience of Creativity. We chat about his research into how exogenous neurostimulation (zapping targeted parts of people's brains with electricity) can improve their performance on creative tasks. We chat about the science of transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and a future in which authors may choose to supplement their creative abilities with technology. This is a great episode to listen to if you want to know: - what is creativity? - what parts of the brain are responsible for creativity? - how is creativity useful? - what is tDCS? - how can I make myself more creative? Adam's sister Leah Naomi Green has just won the Walt Whitman Award of the Academy of American Poets, and you can pre-order her upcoming collection, THE MORE EXTRAVAGANT FEAST, here: https://www.amazon.com/More-Extravagant-Feast-Poems/dp/1644450186 If you'd like to support me, it'd be ace if you picked up a copy of my novels, THE HONOURS, & the new sequel THE ICE HOUSE.
