Design and Sensitive Configurations: Memory and Learning Neural Circuits Correlated with the Creative Processes in Design

摘要

The current study demonstrates an articulation between the learning and memory mental processes that organize our sensitive perception and creative process in design. Based on Eric Kandel's research on the multiple forms of learning using Aplysia californica (a giant sea slug), we have established correlated visual graphics that approach learning neural analogs to the apprehension of the sensible. The contemporary design sets subjective aspects of our being in the world, engendering modes of action that determine our behavior in everyday life. The aim of the current study is to reflect on didactic strategies and procedures that enhance the emergence of creative minds.
