Ep. 2 Remix: What is creative?

In this second episode, we explore a fundamental question for our project: What does it mean to be creative?As technology—especially artificial intelligence—continues to reshape creative processes, how has our understanding of creativity evolved? Can it thrive equally in traditional, hands-on craftsmanship and entirely digital, technology-driven projects?This question is central to our podcast. When we talk about inclusivity, we’re examining how these technologies are redefining creativity on a global scale—for better or worse. Are they fostering a more decentralized creative landscape, or is creative expression becoming concentrated in fewer hands? And as these shifts take place, are they unfolding in the same way across different regions?In this episode, we spoke with:​Meera Goradia, from India, co-chair of Creative Dignity, a collaborative network uniting stakeholders in the Indian handmade sector.​Charles Hayes, based in Singapore. Charles has worked in creative industries for over 30 years, including as Managing Director of IDEO Asia. His work spans Southeast Asia, China, Latin America, and the Middle East.​Season 1 is sponsored by Utrecht Univ.
