As you may know, Vanessa and producer David are in a band together, and they're currently writing songs for a new album. The path through writer’s block and their ups and downs as a collaborative team led to some unexpected debates about the creative process that share surprising parallels with the greater discussion around mathematical thinking.
So they hopped on the mic to debate a range of topics like:
- When do tools help vs. hinder?
- Does process matter if the outcome is good?
- Are mathematical and creative thinking similar?
- What is the ultimate core purpose of education?
- Is AI making us more productive or more lazy?
Finally, Vanessa calls up friend and tech-forward educator Jamie Mitchell (without warning to either him or David) to have him chime in on the debate, and it actually was the most coherent part of the episode. Enjoy and let us know if you want to hear a part 2!
