Abstract

Artistic creativity can be regarded as a property of cognitive artifacts manipulation. More specifically, creativity is distributed through cognitive artifacts, opening opportunities for new and surprising products and processes. When new artifacts are designed, or used in new contexts, we observe, what Margaret Boden calls, ‘transformational creativity’. In dance, the manipulation of new cognitive artifacts, such as dance techniques, softwares, notations, leads to the transformation of dance conceptual spaces. Here we focus on the introduction and manipulation of new cognitive artifacts in historical examples, and explore how they contribute to the transformation of dance conceptual spaces.
