Abstract

This article shares a personal account on the effect of learning with access to a wide range of information and computational tools on personal creativity. It is an ethnographic narrative study, presented as a first person account on the perceived creative added value of learning within an open, very flexible and constantly evolving curriculum, deployed over a heterogeneous and assumingly experimental learning space.
