Creatives and Geeks Should Talk

While the web has brought together technology and creativity like never before the conversations between content creators (creatives) and technologists (geeks) continue to be limited and if at all late to the game. Geeks and creatives should sit down together (face to face is preferable but over the wire works) from the very beginning. Advertising creatives have a creative process. Developers start with a project definition. I am suggesting that these two processes should happen simultaneously and in the same room.

I would like to approach this session as an introduction to the concepts of project development/creative process, how they can merge along their respective paths and the advantages of doing so. If given the opportunity I'd like to involve a few 'expert' artist and geeks. The presentation of ideas would be short enough to allow plenty of discussion.
