从事创造力研究和与艺术家接触的科学家和技术人员面临着政治压力，要求他们通过经济论证来证明自己的工作。这些论点往往强调这项工作如何能够带来创新和经济增长。这有否定艺术对社会的内在价值的负面影响。这意味着，没有经济价值的艺术和创意工作是没有价值的，不值得公共资助。一个NSF资助的Dance.Draw项目的案例研究被用来说明这些观点。我认为，对话的转变需要更多地关注这项工作对社会的质量价值，而不是经济价值。
Scientists and technologists conducting research in creativity and engaging with artists face political pressure to justify their work via economic arguments. These arguments often stress how the work can lead to innovation and economic growth. This has the negative side-effect of dismissing the intrinsic value of the arts for society. The implication is that arts and creativity work that does not have economic merit is not valuable and not worthy of public funding. A case study of the NSF-funded Dance.Draw project is used to illustrate these points. I argue that a shift in dialogue is needed to focus more on the qualitative value of this work to society and less on the economic value.
