Anxiety, Meet Creativity

Date: 11:30 am | Sunday 20 October 2013

Venue: Sam Jacobs Room

The philosopher Soren Kierkegaard argued that anxiety is essential for creativity – as a dual force it can be both destructive and generative, depending on how we approach it.

Gary Greenberg, Anna Goldsworthy and Peter Drew discuss whether inner angst helps or hinders the creative process, and how they channel their inner demons without assuming the foetal position.
