Hi Ben,

I just finished reading AGI revolution. I really liked its breadth and optimism. I have an undergrad and masters degree in Computer Science and have taken AI/Machine learning courses in the masters program I was in about 6 years ago. However, I have not applied that knowledge in my work since then.

The concept that interests me the most is creativity. I see a post on Cogistry that looks really interesting but it seems to be a new idea that may not be ready to be implemented yet? Also I see concept blending here at http://wiki.opencog.org/w/Ideas#Concept_Formation. I thought this had already been worked on in the past though?

Any ideas of what I can work on concerning creativity? Ideally I would like to work as part of a team. Since I work full time now, I have about 10 hours a week I can contribute.

Doing something interesting/useful with the existing and working, but
little-utilized, concept blending code (and extending this code along
the way) would be a good project for someone with significant
experience/knowledge and 10 hrs/ week to contribute...
