Jim Davies

    Jim Davies is hoogleraar aan het Institute of Cognitive Science van Carleton University en leidt het Science of Imagination Laboratory. Zijn onderzoek verdiept zich in de visualisatieprocessen bij zowel mensen als machines, met een focus op kunstmatige intelligentie, analogie, probleemoplossing en de psychologie van kunst, religie en creativiteit. Davies' werk belicht hoe individuen visueel denken gebruiken om uitdagingen aan te gaan en zich voorgestelde scenario's en werelden voor te stellen. Naast zijn academische bezigheden is hij ook een erkend dichter, een internationaal geproduceerd toneelschrijver en een vaardig schilder, kalligraaf en swingdanser.
