Our Creative Nature: Future Skilling Research in Times of Transition

This essay introduces CYANOTYPES, a collaborative multi-year research project that set out to explore and address how people across the creative sector — arts, culture, and design in all their manifestations — might organise learning in the (immediate) future, and outlines a creative agency model to facilitate the development of curricula and custom learning journeys, contending that especially in the context of the growing role of intelligent systems in the creative process, a focus on creative agency makes sense to frame the analysis as well as the design of learning processes.
