The broad purpose of this research is to present an interdisciplinary analysis of the relationship between creativity and visualization. More specifically, the research engages with artistic, cultural, technical and scientific modes of recognizing and evaluating creativity. It explores the potential for new visualization technologies to represent, communicate or interactively engage with theories of creativity to extend our understanding of creativity and its application across differing domains. The research has been developed from two parallel but previously under-related discourses. The first informs a discussion of general problems in the study of creativity across different domains, while the second focuses more on studies of artistic creativity using computer technologies.
