MAINSTAGE PRESENTATION

16. (work)Shoppe of Curiosities
Stefan Mumaw, First Person

How curious are you? For most adults, curiosity takes a back seat to knowledge, but should it? As children, everything was new to us so curiosity and learning were innate. As adults, we typically only learn to accomplish goals. Curiosity wanes. But as creatives, curiosity is what fuels novelty in our problem solving. When it’s absent, we fall back on the expected and the experienced. So Creative Boot Camp author Stefan Mumaw is going to show you how to get your curiosity mojo back in a fun, exercise-filled workshop. He’ll break down the role curiosity plays in the creative process, lay out the trouble with “knowing enough,” and use creative exercises to illustrate the Five Shoppe Stops that re-engage your curiosity muscles as you peruse this conceptual (work)Shoppe of Curiosities.
