Dr. Eitan Mechter completed a doctorate in art education and teaches philosophy of art and design, and philosophy of technology at the University of Haifa. Specializing in Nietzsche and Heidegger, he has written several books: Visual Literacy – Theory, Research and Creation. Caricature and Interpretation, Tel Aviv – A Socio-Cultural Perspective, The Image – Following Nietzsche, Adorno and Debor. Education for Creativity. Zarathustra the Zionist – Nietzsche’s Influence on Berdichevsky. His book ‘Nietzsche and the Aesthetic’ was recently published by Springer New York. He has recently been dealing with the connection between artificial intelligence and design & art teaching. In his opinion, we cannot avoid making fundamental changes in teaching methods in general and in the fields of creativity in particular in order to continue to develop human thinking and creativity that knows how to control technological tools but avoids being bound by them.
