I still find it hard to grasp how we could have a creative process
without some degree of random exploration.
Bruno has a technical definition of "creative" due to Post, that is
most definitely deterministic. I haven't had the chance to really
understand what that means (I've read Wikipedia, and the significance
escapes me :()
But I agree with Telmo - I think random exploration is an essential
component of creativity - whether that's truly random, or just random
with respect to the observer (ie cryptographically strong), is still a
bit of an open point. Whether there's any connection to Post's sense
of creative is another open question ...
That's part of what I will explain to Liz on your list, but I will see
how to make the explanation available from here, without exploding the
mail boxes.
It is not for today, perhaps next week,
Best,
Bruno
Cheers
