Ep 253: Disney's ex Head of Innovation and Creativity Duncan Wardle
For over 25 years, Duncan Wardle drove creativity and innovation at Disney. He sent Buzz Lightyear into space with NASA, almost had Roger Rabbit eliminated by agents after Princess Diana was put in danger, and oversaw a U.S. President-sanctioned parade for a special turkey at Disneyland. But more importantly, he's sharing the inner workings of his creative thinking in a superb new cookbook-style recipe format book, The Imagination Emporium.He joins me to cut through a monstrous amount of topics around AI, imagination, how to break through the misperception that only some people are creative, and why businesses routinely overlook creativity's role in progression.Supported as ever by founding sponsor Illustration X: https://illustrationx.comhttps://www.whsmith.co.uk/Product/Duncan-Wardle/The-Imagination-Emporium--Creative-Recipes-for-Innovation/15598381?awaid=3017&utm_source=redbrain&utm_medium=shopping&utm_campaign=css&gclid=CjwKCAiA0rW6BhAcEiwAQH28IpF-hV7ZWc6Q_EK7Rjh2d98jEYYVr3MDGbYuu69fRR7oIB-en_SUbBoCZtwQAvD_BwEPlease take a moment to rate, review, and subscribe to the show!

Ep 250: UK grey! Talking to applied colour psychology expert Justine Fox about colour in the urban environment and its impact on mental health
We're heading into dark nights season. These panic-fuelled days can be tough. Here in the UK I often lament the dreary, soggy, TO-LET addled high streets and the way they assail already tested moods. So I picked up the colour psychologist bat phone and called Justine Fox.Justine is an expert in applied colour psychology and we're getting into the opportunity to do more with our urban environments, to promote more consideration for the impact of colour, and what needs to happen to shift perception away from luxury and folly to a key player in the visual landscape when it comes to mental health.Please take a moment to rate, review, and subscribe to the show!
