Visiting lecture by John Gero: "Your mind and brain on design"

What happens in your brain and mind when you design? Drawing from different disciplines and methods, like cognitive science, AI and clinical brain research, John Gero explains what is going on in the brains of designers while they design.

Recent advances in cognitive science and non-invasive brain measurements coupled with a dramatic reduction in their cost have made it possible to begin to answer the question: What happens in your mind and brain when you design?

John Gero, probably best known from his work in combining design and AI as well as bringing computational and cognitive models in creative design, will provide some answers. In this talk, he will present results of studying the minds and brains of designers from architecture, engineering and industrial design while they design.
