Ok, so this is a long one…
The first entry of 2026 in my ongoing series of #ThinkingOutLoud about #ArtsPedagogy touches on Dewey, Vygotsky and scaffolding, and the micro-phenomenological interview as outlined by Claire Petitmengin. And tries to tie it all to film education.
(Feedback is always appreciated if anyone feels so moved.)

This one ended up being quite long… In my continuing #ThinkingOutLoud series during my #ArtsPedagogy research semester, I return to #creativity and work though some more takes on it before starting to develop my personal theory of creativity.
Short version: after rejecting theories of creativity that define it based on the output, I explore some alternatives and sketch a theory based on:
- stimulus,
- originality / novelty,
- intention, and
- action.I’m sure I’ll return to this again — if nothing else to show how this means #AI can’t be creative — but I think this is as far as I get before returning to work in January. There are still other topics to explore first.

It's been a while since I last posted to my "Thinking out loud" series on #FineArtsPedagogy. Right now, I've been delving into the nature of creativity, which brings together both my work at The Norwegian Film School and the emerging work at MishMash - Centre for AI & Creativity.
I have been troubled by understandings of creativity that emphasize product and value. I have read and argued with myself, and find I need to think of creativity as primarily a process, which involves intention and action.

More #ThinkingOutLoud about #ArtsPedagogy, as my research inches it's way forward. There seems to be a structure emerging in what I’m doing in my attempt to connect the practically oriented nature of film schools with educational theory and philosophy.
Baby steps…

More #ThinkingOutLoud about #ArtsPedagogy. I feel like I'm starting to get somewhere and am starting to see the contours of where this can end up. Still lots of work to go, however...

As part of my #ThinkingOutLoud on #ArtsPedagogy, I’ve written a little (ok, perhaps not so little) pedagogical bio to both help myself organize my thoughts and also make it clear where I am coming from for anyone who might read my ongoing posts. https://filmschoolteacher.info/fredsnotes/2025/09/02/film-school-pedagogy-moving-from-tacit-to-explicit-knowledge/

Like just about everyone else I know, I seem to spend a lot of time thinking, reading, and talking about #AI. And, given that I work in fine arts education, it's inevitable I think about how AI affects the arts, and how the arts affect AI.
As part of my work in #ArtsPedagogy, I'm visiting the Netherlands Film Academy in September and have been asked to lead a 2-hour workshop around questions of AI and #FilmEducation and the arts while I'm there.
And so: I've sketched some notes that can become the foundation for such a workshop.

I muse about #AI, #ArtsPedagogy, #ReadingLists, and the joys of rebuilding a music library. Finally, my #ResearchSemester officially begins!

In my second instalment of thinking out loud about #ArtsPedagogy for film schools, I touch on drawing, sensory learning, experience, and the audience. I big reach for a short blog post, but a useful way to both train myself to write down what I’m thinking and also to record the connections in my thinking for future reference…

I have the priviledge of taking a whole semester for my research this fall, and intend to blog / think out loud as I work my way through #Pedagogy, #Philosophy, #Art, #Filmmaking, #ExperientialLearning, #4ECognition, and a host of other topics — yes, including some thoughts on #AI and how it effects creativity, imagination, and human agency.
I think I’ll gather the whole thing under the hashtag #ArtsPedagogy, as that is the main thrust of my research.
