Abstract
This paper describes some acts of psychological creativity as phenomena arising from changes to a situation, brought about through interpretation. It presents a way of representing a situation as a schema of concepts made up from perceptual dimensions. It shows the utility of concepts as being changed by the situation within which they are used. An example of this is described, in which the information within a concept is unchanged yet its use becomes different through salience weighting. A computational implemented example is presented as a generate-and-interpret model that produces country growth indicators and then interprets them and repeats this process. The situation, and the space of possible designs, is changed through the act of interpretation. It is suggested that interpretation can be a driver for changing situations – something that looks like P-creativity to an outside observer.
