“Study the science of art and the art of science.” - Leonardo Da Vinci
Leonardo Da Vinci: "Study the science of art. Study the art of science. Develop your senses and especially, learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else" and "only through experimentation can we know anything."
Science is the king of art subjects. It is the art of inventions, discoveries, innovations and gaining more knowledge.
"Science is the new art".
Science-art: selling art to scientists and science to artists.
Education is all about learning all those you want to learn and applying wherever possible.
Albert Einstein’s quote — “the greatest scientists are artists as well”.
Science has always relied on visual representation to convey key concepts.
‘If you can’t explain something simply, you don’t understand it.’ - Albert Einstein
Math is undeniably artistic
An interdisciplinary researcher must face the challenge of being proficient in two (or multiple) different research areas! Not only must s/he be familiar with key principles and methodology in each area, but also understand baseless "biases" and "dogmas" that are a result of inbreeding, and struggle to fight these, as new knowledge emerges from her/his research. An unenviable task indeed! The pointlessness of evaluating such researchers work with conventional metrics should be aptly emphasized.
“The best scientists, engineers and mathematicians are incredibly creative in their approaches to problem-solving and application development”.
"Science, like art, is not a copy of nature but a re-creation of her." – Jacob Bronowski
In scientia veritas, in arte honestas — in science truth, in art honor
E.W. Sinnot, the American biologist and philosopher: "Stored images in the mind are the basis for new creative ideas."
Science based art and literature : communicating complexity through simplicity - Krishna
All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree. All these aspirations are directed toward ennobling man's life, lifting it from the sphere of mere physical existence and leading the individual towards freedom.
--Physicist and Violinist Albert Einstein
Music gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything by Anonymous
Every science begins as philosophy and ends as art - Will Durant
Life itself is a beautiful interaction between art and science. You can't escape it! - Dr. Krishna Kumari Challa
"The Science of Art is like putting a microphone to the whispers of creativity that echo through the halls of every research laboratory fused with the late night musings of the artists in their studios" - Sachi DeCou
“Every Science begins as Philosophy and ends as Art, it arises in hypothesis and flows into achievement”- Will Durant, The Story of Philosophy
Scientists can be artists as well, while they submit their academic papers, and theses they often draw their own illustrations!
Is suffering really necessary? Yes and no. If you had not suffered as you have, there would be no depth to you, no humility, no compassion.
-Eckhart Tolle
Science has enabled the kind of art we’ve never before seen.
Without the arts, science is hobbled. Without science, art is static.
John Maeda wrote of Leonardo da Vinci’s observations that art is the queen of science.
“Science is as much cultural as art is cultural,”
Art is science made clear (what!).
"The aim of art is not to represent the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance." - Aristotle.
Science is a search for answers, based on logic, rationality and verification. Its workplace is the laboratory.
In contrast, art is a search for questions, based on intuition, feeling and speculation. Its workplace is the studio.
DaVinci himself said, "Art is the queen of all sciences communicating knowledge to all the generations of the world. "
"Art is the heart's explosion on the world. Music. Dance. Poetry. Art on canvas, on walls, on our skins. There is probably no more powerful force for change in this uncertain and crisis-ridden world than young people and their art. It is the consciousness of the world breaking away from the strangle grip of an archaic social order." - Luis J. Rodriguez.
For Dawkins, understanding the science behind natural phenomena (and sometimes being reminded of how much more we have yet to learn or discover) can still make our encounters with them sublime. From this point of view, science is the champion of artistic creativity, not its enemy.
"Scientists and artists are both trying to get a better understanding of the world around us, but they are doing it through different lenses,"
It takes many skills to achieve truly remarkable things. A diverse view to solving problems is best.
You need a deep understanding of science to actually manipulate concepts in novel ways and get creative in science - Krishna
"If you hear a voice within you saying, 'You are not a painter,' then by all means paint ... and that voice will be silenced, but only by working."
-- Vincent van Gogh, in a letter to his brother Theo, 28 October 1883.
"The line between art and science is a thin one, and it waves back and forth”
"One of the most common misconceptions about science is that it isn't creative — that it is inflexible, prescribed or boring. Actually, creativity is a crucial part of how we do science"!
"All knowledge has its origins in perception." Da Vinci.
“The scientist does not study nature because it is useful to do so. He studies it because he takes pleasure in it; and he takes pleasure in it because it is beautiful." Jules Henri Poincare
The beauty of art lies in the inimitable creativity of the artist and in the interpretation of the beholder.
"Artists see things one way and scientists another and the really interesting thing is in what's in between."
Einstein’s support of artistic endeavors is both well-known and well-documented.
“The greatest scientists are artists as well,” he once said.
Atul Dodiya (Indian Artist) : Life is beautiful as a painter. Changing colour, observing life and paying attention to every detail that we’re exposed to, and then giving our own vision to it… Nothing gives me more joy.
Art : You accomplish a task that is called art as there is no specific postulates or guidelines.
Science : You do the work with a set of guidelines.
"Change and risk-taking are normal aspects of the creative process. They are the lubricants that keep the wheels in motion. A creative act is not necessarily something that has never been done; it is something you have never done."
-- Nita Leland in The Creative Artis
Pablo Picasso once said, "Good artists copy, great artists steal." All creative artists build upon the work established by the masters before them. ( Not me!- Krishna)
‘Art makes science come alive for students’
Albert Einstein - “The greatest scientists are artists as well”.
“ Science art shows some of the incredible natural beauty that researchers in life sciences see every day in their work.”

2014 FOURTH INTERNATIONAL CDASH (Curriculum Development in the Arts, Sciences and Humanities) CALL FOR INTER-DISCIPLINARY ART-SCIENCE-HUMANITIES CURRICULA- http://www.utdallas.edu/atec/cdash/
Kathryn Evans Senior Lecturer in Muisc
Deadline JULY 30 2014
Leonardo Executive Editor Roger Malina and UT Dallas faculty member Kathryn Evans are inventorying examples of courses and curricula that are in the art-science--humanities field such as courses on art and biology, music and mathematics, art and chemistry, dance and environmental sciences, etc.
The current CDASH inventory is available at http://www.utdallas.edu/atec/cdash/ includes over 130 courses.
Individuals who have taught an art-science-humanities course at the university or secondary-school level, in formal or informal settings, are invited to contact Kathryn Evans, with details of their curriculum, at kcevans@utdallas.edu. Please send the URL (if available), title and number of the course(s), a short description, the level offered (graduate or undergraduate) and the department(s) in which the course(s) was offered. We are also interested in the “history” of your course – when it was offered, if you had any issues with approval, and how you developed the course, lessons learned. Full syllabi may be sent to Paul Thomas at p.thomas@unsw.edu.au to be included in a cloud wiki at http://artsci.unsw.wikispaces.net/.
We are interested in the broad range of all forms of the performing arts (including music, dance, theatre and film) and the visual arts (both traditional and new media); and connecting to all the sciences. We are looking for submissions of in-person class room, on-line and hybrid blended courses. We also include technology related courses that are art-science focused.

Genetic Ink, Launches DNA Art Platform; Builds on Advances in Biotechnology
New York startup Genetic Ink is launching its first DNA Art collaboration, Spark, today. With recent advances in biotechnology driving the cost of genetic sequencing down, Genetic Ink has developed a technology that is able to combine any human, cat, or dog DNA sequence with an artist's concept. The result is a 100% unique piece of art for each subject. The company aims to become a platform for top artists and designers to express themselves with DNA sequence data, and to make that art available to the public.
The concept of art from DNA first came to public attention, when renowned American artist Dennis Ashbaugh began painting "genetic portraits" in 1985. The oversized canvases were created in the tradition of Pollack and Mondrian, but closely followed the aesthetic of then-new DNA electrophoresis gels. These gels allowed for nominal visual representation of the DNA, but did not actually depict the DNA sequence.
M31 Technology in the TSMC 2014 North America Technology Symposium demonstrated "Art and Science" innovative solution for Silicon IP
M31 Technology Corp., a global silicon IP boutique, participated in the TSMC 2014 North America Technology Symposium with the theme of "M31, the force of Art and Science" and displayed a variety of innovative IP solutions.
Science begins with observation and develops through reasoning. Art begins with faith and develops through observation. Both are in pursuit of Truth, Goodness, and Beauty, which is M31 Boutique's aspiration and momentum of developing premium IPs. Equipped with solid scientific foundation, M31’s strong R&D team has developed various silicon IP solutions well received by customers through high quality product development flow and close collaboration with world-class semiconductor companies. Attendees of the symposium were highly impressed by the exhibited USB3.0 PHY IP, MIPI M-PHY IP for mobile applications, MACHTM series for performance optimization of CPU and GPU, and 55nm embedded-flash IP, etc.
Mr. H.P. Lin, M31 Technology's Chairman, stated, "The momentum of combining Art and Science is without limits. Many great scientists and artists possess both rationality and sensibility, and calmness together with passion. In pursuit of Truth, Goodness, and Beauty, they innovate and make contributions continuously. Similarly, M31 Technology is devoted to providing IPs with differentiated key specifications, building high quality product development flow, and opening up new prospect for the combination of art and science.” M31 Technology has been aggressively investing in the development and validation of different types of silicon IPs in advanced process technologies, and providing customers with differentiated IP solutions. These solutions will help customers grab market opportunities through shortening design cycles, reducing manufacturing cost, and increasing product competitiveness.

The art of ornithology
http://www.toledocitypaper.com/April-Issue-2-2014/The-art-of-ornith...
The Green Street Arts Center welcomes a new artist for May to exhibit her work in art and science.
Windsor painter Catherine Doocy will open her show, Transitions, on May 1 from 6 to 8 p.m. at the center, focusing on landscapes and the science of memory.
“We have the theme of art and science,” Sandra Guze, program and education coordination at the Wesleyan University-run Green Street, said. “We’re always looking for artists with some sort of connection and she is one that’s interested in biology and the natural world.”
Guze said that Doocy, who is a Wesleyan University Graduate Liberal Studies alumn, puts literal spaces in her work to show how the brain fills in the gap.
“You’ll finish the tree branch,” Guze said. “She’s a person who’s interested in memory and how the brain works.”
According to Doocy’s artist’s statement, the transitions are gradual like the seasonal shifts of colors while some are abrupt and dramatic such as storm clouds and thunderstorms.

A new exhibit at the Joseph Slifka Center for Jewish Life at Yale aims to explore the inner beauty of a woman.
“Only in a Woman” features approximately 20 enlarged microscopic images of tissues found only in the female body. The images have been edited by Harvey Kliman, M.D., Ph.D., who works in the Obstetrics, Gynecology & Reproductive Sciences Department at the Yale School of Medicine. The exhibit, which opened in the center’s Sylvia Slifka Chapel on Tuesday, includes images from the uterus and placenta, explained Lucy Partman ’14, the Slifka Arts Curator.
“Sometimes the images are so captivating that they become something other than the scientific data,” Partman said. “And that’s where the art comes in.”

Interpreting Old Bones: Art and Science Give New Meaning to Remains Found on New Haven Green
On Wednesday, April 30, 2014, from 5 to 8 p.m., the New Haven Museum will host an opening reception for an exhibition pairing powerful interpretive art created by seven well-known Connecticut artists with scientific analysis by noted bioarchaeologists in "Nothing is Set in Stone: The Lincoln Oak and the New Haven Green," an informative and revelatory tribute to the historic Lincoln Oak on the New Haven Green. In October 2012, winds from Hurricane Sandy toppled the mighty oak--planted in 1909 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Lincoln's birth--revealing human skeletal remains in the tree's exposed roots and creating an enigmatic story that captured the imagination of the entire country. The opening reception is free of charge. The exhibition runs through November 2, 2014.
For the artistic portion of "Nothing is Set in Stone: The Lincoln Oak and the New Haven Green," area artists were invited to use branches, limbs, or pieces of the trunk of the Lincoln Oak to interpret the history of the tree and the discovery of the skeletal remains beneath it. The exhibit includes two works by noted Hamden sculptor, Susan Clinard, who says of her Lincoln Oak sculpture, Of the Same Branch; Portraits of the Civil War, 2014.
