“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)
Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep – Scott Adams
‘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.”

Neuromedia Art and Research
August 31 2012-March 17th 2013
Kulturama: Science Museum, Englischviertelstrasse 9, Zürich (near at Hottingerplatz)
NEUROMEDIA is an exhibition by artist Jill Scott merging neurobiological anatomy and physiology studies with media art. The innovative exhibition features four interactive sculptures (SOMABOOK, THE ELECTRIC RETINA, «ESKIN» AND DERMALAND) involving scientific research results as well as documentary films on the scientists and involved, the artist and her work processes. The exhibition offers profound insight into the relationship between art and science. Inspired by molecular and cellular research, cinema, philosophy and human health, NEUROMEDIA was developed while Scott was artist-in-residence at the University of Zürich from 2004 - 2012. This is the first time these artworks are being exhibited in a science museum. NEUROMEDIA will allow you to discover surprizing dimensions about your own levels of human perception.

From SymbioicA Digest:
1.b SymbioticA seminar series
The Futures of the Biologically Designable
Date: 10 August 2012
Time: 3:00pm
Location: SymbioticA
Speaker: Orkan Telhan
Glowing plants, drug-delivering artificial cells, smell-changing bacteria, propelling mouse tissues… Today, new kinds of biological designs are increasingly gaining public awareness and shifting biological imagination towards new horizons. Next to scientists and engineers, do-it-yourself biologists are claiming crucial roles as the hackers, artists, designers, cultural theorists, and entrepreneurs of the biophilic era. As Synthetic Biology is becoming the go-to-discipline to those who are interested in the biochemical design space, engineering principles become the driving force behind designed biologies.
But what do we mean by “design” when we talk about biological design?
In this two-part talk, Orkan Telhan will trace the long history of biological design rather quickly through a series of designed and commercialized biological artifacts and offer a more discursive view on the evolution of the biologically designable beyond specific disciplinary agendas. Secondly, Telhan will reflect on the outcomes of his research residency at SymbioticA and briefly discuss his current project on “Biosynthesis and the Futures of Sandalwood.”
Current SymbioticA resident Orkan Telhan is an interdisciplinary artist, designer and researcher whose investigations focus on the design of interrogative objects, interfaces, and media, engaging with critical issues in social, cultural, and environmental responsibility. Telhan is Assistant Professor of Fine Arts - Emerging Design Practices at University of Pennsylvania, School of Design. Telhan is working towards his PhD in Design and Computation at MIT School of Architecture and Planning. He was part of the Sociable Media Group at the MIT Media Laboratory. He studied Media Arts at the State University of New York at Buffalo and theories of media and representation, visual studies and graphic design at Bilkent University, Ankara. Telhan's individual and collaborative work has been exhibited in a number of venues including Ars Electronica, ISEA, LABoral, Archilab, Architectural Association, Architectural League/ NYC, and the MIT Museum.

From science to street art: research comes to life at See No Evil
Postgraduate students from the University of Bristol will be swapping science for spray cans as they bring their research work to life for See No Evil – the UK’s largest permanent street art project.
Complicated concepts from the world of engineering, nanoscience and chemistry will be communicated on canvas as part of the diverse art project, which sees 30 of the world’s most prolific street artists descend on Bristol city centre.See No Evil will return to Nelson Street from 13 to 19 August, recreating the success of last year’s inaugural event which saw leading graffiti artists turn the dull city centre street into a tourist attraction, bringing in visitors and bolstering Bristol's reputation as a street art centre.
Saturday, 18 August, 2012, will see a total of 10 PhD and EngD students from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council funded Centres for Doctoral Training at Bristol University not only spray-painting on large boards but also transforming a car in a bid to express the themes and ideas behind their research, translating science and engineering concepts into street art.
