We present a robot aimed at producing a collage formed by a mix of photomontage and digital collage. The artwork is created after a visual and verbal interaction with an human user. A cognitive architec- ture allows the robot to manage the three different phases of the real- time artwork process: (i) taking inspiration from postural and verbal interaction with the human user, including the exploration and the analysis of his/her social web items; (ii) performing a creative thinking process to obtain a mental model of the artwork; (iii) executing a creative collage composition and deciding a significant title. The paper explains, primarly, how creativity traits of the robot are influenced by the proposed architecture: how ideas are generated through cognitive thinking and affective influences; how the personality and the artistic behavior are modeled by learning and evaluations; the motivation, and the confidence evolution as a function of successes or failures.

Abstract
We present a robot aimed at producing a collage formed by a mix of photomontage and digital collage. The artwork is created after a visual and verbal interaction with an human user. A cognitive architec- ture allows the robot to manage the three different phases of the real- time artwork process: (i) taking inspiration from postural and verbal interaction with the human user, including the exploration and the analysis of his/her social web items; (ii) performing a creative thinking process to obtain a mental model of the artwork; (iii) executing a creative collage composition and deciding a significant title. The paper explains, primarly, how creativity traits of the robot are influenced by the proposed architecture: how ideas are generated through cognitive thinking and affective influences; how the personality and the artistic behavior are modeled by learning and evaluations; the motivation, and the confidence evolution as a function of successes or failures.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
