S40E8 - Creativity, Innovation, and Creativity Blocks, with Costa Michailidis

In this HCI Podcast episode, Dr. Jonathan H. Westover talks with Costa Michailidis about creativity, innovation, and creativity blocks. Costa (https://www.linkedin.com/in/costamichailidis/) began life as a creative misfit, using his imagination to spur havoc, laughter, and the occasional unintended success. Come to think of it, he hasn't changed much over the years. Some of his recent adventures include working with NASA scientists to reimagine the search for life beyond Earth, designing innovation tournaments inside of Fortune 500 companies to seed innovation projects, speaking the United Nations in New York as part of the first TEDx event there, working with a group of cyber security experts (including one of the original creators of the internet-not AI Gore) to make recommendations to the Obama Administration, and that's just the compulsory who's who. Some of the most impactful and beautiful work he's done has been with college students, young entrepreneurs, and nonprofit organizations. Costa's passion, and by some cosmic coincidence his job, is to help people be more creative, so they can solve new and meaningful problems in the world. He takes great joy and pride in skillfully priming the human brain, and the human heart for creative breakthrough.
