Who takes their inspiration from John Cleese? Who would bin education? And you would never guess who wants to ban robots....


We kick-off series two with some of the highlights from last season. Every week, we invite some of the world's smartest thinkers in creativity and technology to have a chat with Professor Neil Maiden, the director of the Centre for Creativity enabled by AI.


At the end of every conversation we ask our guest the same three questions - What do they need be creative? What new app would they create? and What piece of tech would they bin if they had the chance?


From the godfather of user centre computer design, Ben Shneiderman, to Ted Talker and business author Margaret Heffernan, behavioural psychologist Richard Chataway, renowned digital artist and pioneer Ernest Edmonds, creative problem solving guru Scott Isaksen, and innovation expert Dr Sara Jones, we have gathered up their responses to our regular three question feature.

What's it like working with Dominic Cummings? How can we innovate effectively in large organisations? How does a Japanese TV presenter fit in to all of this?


In this wide-ranging chat, Neil Maiden catches up with Sir Professor Finkelstein, MBE, an old friend and former Chief Scientific Advisor for the British government. This conversation spans his distinguished career from software systems research, through innovation in government to his new role leading City, University of London. Prof Finkelstein discusses what he made of working with Dominic Cummings, the concept of creative destruction and what constrains creativity in institutional systems. He explains how strategic venture capital can be used to drive change in organisations; the importance of taking lessons from de-clutter queen Marie Kondo, and confesses to the one thing that he needs to be creative.
