Since the dawn of humanity we have developed creative technologies such as ink, carving tools, or sounding objects that support manifestations of creativity. Creative Technologies (CT) have always been the ground for human expressivity; to sustain self-realization; to raise self-esteem; to increase community bonds; and to create better societies.
In the last 30 years the development and convergence of a series of technologies has led to phenomena different from anything Humanity has witnessed before. Online sharing, free, open source, accessible technological tools for creation have all enabled many more people to create and express themselves through digital media, leading to massive amounts of rich media content creation by the curious hobbyist all the way to artists and other professionals.
There is a new cultural movement taking shape. This movement is providing a “voice” through which anyone can express whatever their imagination can create to everyone. At the core of this emerging cultural movement are digital technologies that enable access to sophisticated tools for rich media content creation, interactive content, sharing of ideas, discussion and distribution.
