Key Ideas


Liquid Networks – density helps grow ideas



Adjacent Possibilities – exponential growth of creative boundaries



Serendipity – “Chance favors the connected mind”



Platforms of Knowledge – when different platforms encounter one
another, they “bend” and “stack”



Slow Hunches – ideas that build and ferment before blossoming



Exaptation – bricolage; bending something old to become
something new



Error – the creative power of mistakes
Case Study: A Brief History of DJ
Culture


Began in New York in the late 1970s and early 1980s



Originally there were no “hip-hop” records. Early DJs used their
parents’ old soul and rock records.



DJs have/had to know and listen to lots of records to recognize
good songs, play to the crowd, and have the right record at the
right time!



The best part of each record – often the drum “break” – was
extended for dancing.



Contemporary artists began to rediscover lost classics



Eventually the “breaks” were recombined into something
completely new.



Every DJ has cleared the dance floor. Multiple times!

Key Idea

Historico-Cultural Corollary

Liquid Networks

This urban movement began in New York in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

Adjacent Possibilities

Originally there were no “hip-hop” records. Early DJs used their parents’ old
soul and rock records. “Digging” led to new influences and inspirations.

Serendipity

DJs have to be “connected” to recognize good songs, play to the crowd,
and have the right record at the right time.

Platforms of Knowledge

Musical ideas bended and stacked onto one another, as the best part of
each record – often the drum “break” – was extended for dancing.

Slow Hunches

Contemporary artists began to rediscover lost classics, which they sampled
for future use.

Exaptation/Bricolage

Eventually the “breaks” were recombined into something completely new.
The remix was born and soon influenced musical genres as diverse as jazz
and classical, country and pop.

Error

Every DJ has cleared the dance floor while improvising in the moment.

Simplification or Abstraction

Variation within Repetition: Addition Problem 4 + 3 + 6 = x



Horizontal and Vertical – Move the Unknown – Create Word Problem



You have been asked to go to the store to buy bread, milk, and
eggs. You were given $20. Write a word equation explaining the
math problem.



The total cost of Bread + Milk + Eggs must not exceed $20.



Replace the words with letters for the equation.



x + y + z ≤ $20 or x + y + z + r + $20 with r being the remainder

Distance = speed x time.

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. As we move through the book, we will ask you for your observations, the connections you made and how you simplified and applied what you learned.
