Art-Science and Science-Art Curricula: Call for Contributions

http://www.twine.com/twine/12hmrlnzz-260/art-science-and-science-art-cur...

Leonardo Education Forum co chair Victoria Vesna and Leonardo Executive Editor Roger Malina are interested in examples of courses and curricula that are in the art-science field- such as courses on art and biology, art and mathematics, art and chemistry, art and environmental sciences etc.

We are not collecting art and new media curricula, but the broad range of arts (all forms from performing, sound, visual etc) connecting to all sciences, hard and social sciences. We are including art and new technologies if they are not new media (eg nano tech).

People who have taught an art-science or science art class, at university or secondary school level, in formal or informal settings are invited to contact roger malina, with details of their curriculum, at rmalina@alum.mit.edu

SymbioticA is a unique laboratory that facilitates artistic research residencies enabling artists and researchers to engage in wet biology practices within a biological science department.

Its physical location within the School of Anatomy & Human Biology exposes artists and researchers to the culture and practice of science providing a hothouse for developing new skills and knowledge for its residents. Residents practice lab work and are given training in scientific and technical knowledge related to the area of research the resident wishes to pursue.

Residents have worked in collaboration with academics and technicians in the biological and social sciences, arts & humanities, engineering and agriculture departments.
