Richard Loveless
Emeritus Professor, Arizona State University, Tempe
President at Global Connections: Art and Technology Consulting Service
Richard
Loveless, now 80, talks about what it takes to form successful
collaborations between the arts and sciences. Trans-disciplinary
collaborations can inspire creativity and pioneer new ways of thinking.
Richard’s work has led to the development of many symbiotic
relationships, hybrid university degree programs, and allowed for
collective wisdom of groups to emerge with outcomes that changed
everybody.
“I avoid thinking about any collaborators as peers,”
he says, “because in the real sense of the word ‘peer,’ means you’re
picking people who are good at the same things you are… I want everyone
in the collaborative group to be different from everyone else and
they’re there because of that difference. They bring to the whole
process a unique quality of mind that nobody else has.”
He
thinks interdisciplinary collaboration should be a conventional mode of
education and the structural foundation of all 21st century research
universities. What’s new about that, you may ask? Well, he started
working to make that happen over 50 years ago.
