Faster. Cheaper. More efficient. That’s the mantra driving much of our world today – but should it apply to creativity? In this episode of Creativity: Uncovered, Abi Gatling speaks with Jesse Feister, Executive Director of Webby Media Group, to explore what happens to creativity and craft in a world obsessed with speed and automation. Can creativity survive without compromise? And what do we lose when we skip the struggle?
Tune into this episode of Creativity: Uncovered to hear about:
- The difference between creativity and craft in a high-speed world
- How AI and technology may be raising the standard, not lowering the bar
- Why craft “resists efficiency” – and why that matters
- What we might lose when we remove effort from the creative process
- Whether machines could ever truly replicate human craft
- The evolving definition of excellence in the digital age
- The increased emphasis on human connection and authenticity
- The role of awards like the Webbys in celebrating (and defending) creative integrity
Happy listening!
