Abstract
This presentation aims to focus on and develop the notion of distributed creativity from a cultural psychological perspective. It will start by outlining the need for a cultural psychological paradigm of creative expression and argue that this perspective is primarily concerned with what can be called ‘distributed creativity’. Drawing on related literature on distributed cognition (Hutchins, 2000), I will consider here the three inter-related ways in which creative action is distributed: across people, across people and objects, and across time. This particular understanding of creativity challenges stereotypical views that locate creativity in the mind and helps us ‘extend’ it into the world by acknowledging its sociality, materiality, and temporality. A few methodological reflections will be offered towards the end.
