Elon Musk Made a Car Fly. But Do We Still Need Cars?
Elon Musk made a car fly. But do we still need cars? Through first-principles thinking and childhood exploration, CCH ART NOW examines how material-based creative practice can cultivate human agency, independent judgment, and the ability to imagine possibilities beyond existing solutions in the age of AI.
The Fight for the Unwritten Future
As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly capable of predicting human behavior, a deeper question emerges: Who has the power to shape the human future? Drawing on surveillance capitalism, AI ethics, and childhood development, this founder research reflection explores why human agency, creativity, and independent judgment remain essential. Through CCH ART NOW's long-term, material-based educational practice, it examines how children can develop the capacity to explore, decide, and create beyond predetermined expectations.
8 HOURS OF AGENCY
What happens when a child’s artwork becomes a space for family collaboration? This CCH ART NOW studio case from Taiwan explores attention, independent decision-making, and shared discovery through cardboard structures, layered stickers, and hands-on material exploration.
YES, HUMAN AGENCY CAN BE CULTIVATED!
A longitudinal CCH case study tracing how material exploration between ages five and seven may develop into strategy use, resilience, sustained attention, and increasingly self-directed learning.
CCH ART NOW REFLECTION ON PISA
The latest PISA findings point to more than declining academic performance. They reveal shifts in attention, persistence, effort, and the way students respond to difficulty. CCH ART NOW examines what these signals may mean for learning, judgment, and human agency in the age of AI.
AI BETWEEN THE VIRTUAL AND THE ACTUAL
AI is transforming both digital and physical work, but not in the same way. By comparing software engineering with aircraft maintenance, this article examines where human judgment, accountability, and consequence still matter—and how CCH uses material practice to cultivate those capacities in the age of AI.
THE SWITCH POINT AI CANNOT REPLACE
AI can generate possibilities instantly. But turning an intention into physical reality requires something different: attention, judgment, adaptation, and action. This case documents the moment a child shifted from resistance to deep engagement—and began solving a problem that could not be completed by prediction alone.
Beyond Local Optima
An exploratory CCH case examining how an elite-level technology engineer responds to open-ended material conditions—and what search-space expansion may reveal about expert judgment, uncertainty, and human decision-making in the age of AI.
