We all have the ability to create. But what is creativity? How does it work? With the “OnCreativity” series, Plazm explores these and other questions via informal interviews with designers, artists, musicians, animators, and educators. Like creativity itself, their differing points of view inspire, provoke, confuse, and delight.

Since our founding in Portland in 1991, we have believed that creativity can change the world. “As human beings, we have to get over the period of competition,” as Arturo Vega says in an upcoming OnCreativity interview, “and we have to replace it with one of collaboration and compassion.” 

For our launch today, we are pleased to present graphic design legend Milton Glaser, graffiti writer/fashion designer Claw Money, art director/author Steven Heller, and filmmaker/photographer Andrew Zuckerman.

Welcome to OnCreativity.
