Abstract

This is a call to action.The time is ripe for a creative turn in computing.This article sets out a vision of what Creative Computing is and what it might become.It distinguishes between Creative Computing and computational creativity, and then lays out a theoretical framework.It proposes that Creative Computing is mainly happening in software.It compares the process of software development with the process of artistic creation and looks at ways in which the two might productively overlap or merge.It considers the levels of abstraction required in both and interrogates both their semantics and underlying principles from a philosophical and practical point of view.Finally, it sets three types of new challenges for Creative Computing in terms of software.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
