Nanométric Visualisation: A project "Science_Art." Calendar 2006
The will to foment the intersection between art, science and technology as a tool to contribute to diminish the existing spacing between the so called two cultures has taken The Parc Cientific of Barcelona to dedicate the calendar year 2006 to a new challenge in the multidisciplinary, in which they have cooperated artists and scientists. As a result of this collaboration, they have jointly explored ideas, materials and methodologies of work and have developed new creative strategies that want to act as models of communication between different areas of investigation as well as between the scientific community and society.
We invite you to see the results obtained from the collaboration between the group Binary Prospections from the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Barcelona, and the research laboratory of Nanotechnology CREBEC and Platform for Nanotechnology from the Barcelona Parc Científic , which have shared the adventure to create new models of artistic and scientific visualisation from the technology and results of the investigation in nanoengineering.
The project is carried out as part of a growing number of cooperative initiatives between scientists and artists at international level who are giving raise to results that can take any form, but that, as the Wellcome Trust Experiment book summarizes: Conversations in Art and Science, "Everybody can inspire debate on the same science, on the interpretation of science by the artist, and how art can influence science and science as inspiration to art."
