<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:4.0pt;mso-outline-level:2"><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">In the last five decades, technical communication (TC) scholars have been participating in conversations about infusing technical communication
with artistic creativity such as art and film music (Richards, 2009), beauty/makeup (Chong, 2018), cinema/film/screenwriting (e.g., Daffer, 1970; Gillette, 2005; Shelton, 1993), classical art forms (Laplante & Flaxman, 1995), humor and comics (Cohen, 1992;
Cooper, 1996; Weal 1986; Yu, 2015), music (e.g., Girill, 1989; Nelson, 1989; Wiley, 1993), poetry (Welch, 2010), and storyboarding (Balzotti, 2016; Kody, 1992; Larkin, 1996).</span><b><span style="font-family:

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:.25in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:4.0pt;
margin-left:0in;mso-outline-level:2">
<span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">The value of artistic creativity is not only evidenced in TC scholarship, but also in the corporate world. Successful companies like Google, Apple, and Facebook have been cited as incorporating elements of the arts,
performance, and/or play into their corporate environments. For instance, Google designed Broadway-themed conference rooms and workstations to look like giant Tinker Toys (Stewart, 2013). Coleman (2016) explained that organizations that “foster a workplace
culture of creativity are likely to have happy, motivated employees who are more loyal and more productive.” Furthermore, a recent study (Robert & da Motta Veiga, 2017) published in the
<i>International Journal of Humor</i> shows a positive correlation between conversational humor and job satisfaction, which supports the argument that managers should allow or encourage humor in the workplace.</span><b><span style="font-family:"Garamond",serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:.25in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:4.0pt;
margin-left:0in;mso-outline-level:2">
<span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">Fine arts disciplines have also been shown to partner well with both industry and the classroom to allow practitioners and students to not only enhance the technical and interpersonal skills necessary to their success
but also improve student and user engagement. An example of such an interdisciplinary partnership is the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, which in 2017, partnered with Chicago’s Second City comedy theater to teach improvisation to its MBA students.
The partnership was forged to enhance these students’ communication, collaboration, and well-being through the theatrical genre of improvisational comedy (The University of Chicago Booth School of Business, 2017).

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;"><br>
</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Garamond, serif;">Because of such recent interdisciplinary collaborations, we argue that now is a good time to (re)examine how TC researchers and practitioners are using artistic creativity in the classroom and
workplace. Since the early 1990s, there has been little scholarly work on creative approaches such as improvisation, humor, and other related areas in fine arts in the journal of
<i>Technical Communication</i>. <b>In this special issue, we are setting out to identify dimensions of artistic creativity in TC. We pose the question: What does artistic creativity look like in contemporary TC instruction and practice?
</b>While there is no codified definition of artistic creativity in the field of TC or related disciplines, a pair of psychology researchers (Ivcevic & Mayer, 2009) who published in the
<i>Creativity Research Journal</i> have identified the following five content areas of artistic creativity: visual arts, music, dance, theater, and writing. </span></p>
