QUESTION:What are ethics?

@Kel_Moran

- Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy

@Kel_Moran

They’re more what you’d call

guidelines.

@Kel_Moran

@Kel_Moran

There appears to be some tension, in that creativity eschews the traditional and upholds the innovative, while ethics, often, leans toward something we might describe as established; set.

@Kel_Moran

Creativity is also often a disruptor, while ethics are an upholder - so to have the perfect forms of each in one person without conflict would seem impossible.

QUESTION:What responsibility does creativity have to the matter of ethics?

@Kel_Moran

@Kel_Moran

@Kel_Moran

“The production of art, its role in public conversation, its preservation, and its presentation, all

provoke us to confront ethical challenges…”

“We are committed to inspiring innovative thought by using creative expression to elevate moral discourse;

bringing together communities while prompting ethical dialogue between students, artists,

scholars, and the general public.”

— Emory University Center for Ethics as part of their Ethics & the Arts Initiative.
