Call for Art for "Science/Fiction" at the Sun Gallery
Science/Fiction is an exhibition exploring the intersection of scientific inquiry, instrument manufacture, aesthetics and the fictional narratives which surround the real world and the extra-terrestrial. From Space exploration to Roswell, NM, both artists and scientists are obsessed with locating meaning in the beauty and the mystery of unknown worlds. Scientific instruments are expertly crafted sculptures whose function is to reveal the working mechanisms of the world around us. Cells seen at microscopic level are miniature landscapes that reference the geometry of our larger environment and are detailed with exquisite, gem-like beauty.

Every year MIT hosts a Conference that focuses on the discussion between art, science and technology and we are hoping that Science/Fiction will attract a wide range of creative individuals working in media across the spectrum. Fledgling artists and students are encouraged to submit work and we look forward to seeing how your ideas become translated into objects.

The show dates will be April 24th to June 1, 2014, at the Sun Gallery in Hayward. Artwork will be juried for entry digitally or by photo at no cost to the artist. We are calling for submissions of art for this exhibit, and as always look forward to the creative ways our members choose to address the theme of the show.

Nerves in Patterns on a Screen
Devon Ward
Opening Friday 11 July 2014 6:00pm
Paper Mountain Gallery

Nerves in Patterns on a Screen is a speculative exhibition by Devon Ward that investigates the levels of care and control that humans maintain over microscopic life in order to generate knowledge. Traditionally a hierarchical order is maintained during laboratory experiments, whereby someone observes and something is observed. This project explores how biological technologies that digitally record the activities of life can be reframed as a means of destabilizing this order. Instead of extending of our perceptual boundaries, the limits of the observational tools are shown.

Living neural tissue is employed as both medium and agent in this project. Digital animations are choreographed and corrupted by the electrical signals of neurons as our technological gaze is disrupted by the agency of life. A collection of chapbooks accompanies the digital, featuring typographic collages and biodigital poetries that cut up the rules of language. These works ruminate on the imposition of symbolism on both digital and biological life, creating a biosemiotic exchange in which an electrical impulses are imbued with meaning.

Nerves in Patterns on a Screen is the culmination of Devon's research while pursuing a Master of Biological Art with SymbioticA at the University of Western Australia. During this research, he engaged with scientific laboratory practices, drawing inspiration from the unpredictable and sometimes chaotic experiences when working with wet biology. The outcome, Nerves in Patterns on a Screen, explores the digitization of life processes and the materiality of the digital.

The Rights of Rock Art: Human Entanglements with the Lives of Artefacts

Date: 7 March 2014
Time: 3:00pm
Location: SymbioticA
Speaker: Sven Ouzman, Centre for Rock Art Management and Research, University of Western Australia

Rock art is one of Archaeology's most varied, visible and theoretically-informed artefacts. But this 'artefact' (Latin: arte + factum ~ 'thing made by [human] skill') is not simply brought into the world by human agency. Rather, rock art is both constitutive of human-ness and leads its own life. More than simply visually spectacular imagery, rock art embodies a complex and multi-sensorial entanglement of human-stone relationships. An emerging issue for research and curation is what our human obligations towards rock art are beyond anthropocentric notions of knowledge and conservation. I propose to probe this and related issues using ancient and modern Indigenous rock arts from northern Australia and southern Africa.

Suspense and Suspensions: Materials and Dialogic Tension

Date: 14 March 2014
Time: 3:00pm
Location: SymbioticA
Speakers: Miik Greek and Chris Malajczuk

Artist Miik Green and nanotechnologist Chris Malajczuk collaborate on art projects. Although from diverse backgrounds, they converge to explore ideas about about resistance, transformation and limbo. They will present select works from 2011 - 2014, discussing life and its conservation, revealing the unseeable and approaching materials as scientist and artist. Their current series of Premographs (Latin for pressure/picture) looks at materials under tension, where cells, arteries and dendritic forms seem to emerge under stress. Green draws links here to arts practice - between resistance and revelation - where Malajczuk sees these as an invitation for instability.

Miik Green is a multidisciplinary visual artist living in Perth, Western Australia. Green draws his inspiration from the microscopic aspects of nature, and is currently involved in cross-disciplinary artistic collaborations that integrate the fields of science, mathematics, chemistry and physics. The strength of his practice lies in his ability to translate microforms such as fungi, coral, seed pods, diatoms, blood cells and radiolarian, into paintings and sculptural pieces, while preserving the integrity of the original form.

Green is a PhD candidate at Curtin University and recipient of an Australian Postgraduate Award and Curtin Research Scholarship. He is represented throughout Australia by Flinders Lane Gallery (Melbourne) and Linton & Kay Contemporary (Perth). Green has completed a Bachelor of Arts (Hons, 1st Class) through Curtin University, a Bachelor of Visual Arts, Painting at Edith Cowan University in Western Australia and an Advanced Diploma of Industrial Design through the WA School of Art and Design. miikgreen.com

Chris Malajczuk is a PhD candidate within the Biomolecular Modelling Group (BMMG) based at Curtin University, where he previously attained his bachelor's degree in Nanotechnology (First Class Honours). Malajczuk's research explores atomic-scale biophysical mechanisms specifically involved in solvent cryoprotection and more recently protein transport within the central nervous system. He was an invited guest at the 2013 CECAM conference 'Coupling between protein, water and lipid dynamics in complex biological systems' hosted by the Swiss Institute of Technology in Switzerland, and was an Australian representative at the inaugural International Summer School for Young Scientists at Tomsk State University (TSU) in Russia in 2011. He is a current recipient of the Australian Postgraduate Award and Curtin Research Scholarship.

>From the Laboratory to the Studio: Interdisciplinary Practices in Bio Art May 19-June 20, 2014
School of Visual Arts (SVA) New York City Four undergraduate studio credits Coming to the fore in the early 1990s, Bio art is neither media specific nor locally bounded. As an international movement, several sub-genres exist within this overarching term:

- The iconography of molecular matter and reproductive technologies - The employment of computer software, systems theory and simulations that investigate evolution, artificial life and robotics - Projects with wet-lab mediums, including tissue engineering, plant breeding, and ecological reclamation. Of particular importance to bio art is to summon awareness of the ways in which altering nature also transforms social, ethical and cultural values in society

This residency takes place in the Fine Arts Nature and Technology laboratory located in New York City's Chelsea gallery district, equipped with microscopes for photo and video, skeleton, specimen and slide collections, aquariums, and a library. Demonstrations include microscopy, plant tissue engineering, molecular cuisine and the production of micro eco-systems. Field trips and visiting speakers will include artists, scientists and museum professionals. Students may work in any media, including the performing arts.
>From the Laboratory to the Studio: Interdisciplinary Practices in Bio Art will be led by artist Suzanne Anker, Chair of the BFA Fine Arts Department at SVA; Brandon Ballengée, bio-artist; and Joseph DeGiorgis, marine biologist. In addition, visiting speakers have included artists, scientists and museum professionals including Kathy High, Ingeborg Reichle, James Walsh, Jennifer Willet, Ellen D. Jorgensen, Oliver Medvedik, William Myers and Paula Hayes.
A portfolio is required for review and acceptance to this program.

STEM-Inspired Art On Display at TAG UWF
The Art Gallery at the University of West Florida is hosting STEAM National Art and Technology Exhibition. STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics. The show features science and mathematics-inspired work from artists from across the United States. Thomas Asmuth is an art instructor at UWF. He was part of the team that planned the exhibit.

“We took a look at artists who worked in media that really formed, like, a hybrid practice, people who have an interdisciplinary focus, where they’re using science, high tech, engineering, mathematics. Where the aesthetics meets that is where you end up with this idea of a national movement of adding arts into STEM foundation education, referred to as ‘STEAM,’”

MONA'S new art project combines science with art to bring awareness

Set in a stunning late-Victorian London mansion, this exhibition of highlights from Cambridge University’s eight museums is eclectic and wondrous
Two Temple Place is one of London’s hidden architectural gems. Set on Embankment behind the Strand, it is a late-Victorian neo-Gothic mansion, with a Tudor twist. Built for financier and statesman William Waldorf Astor by John Pearson Loughborough as his estate office in 1895, no expense was spared on its opulence.

Throughout, the interior is decorated with literary, mythic and historic references – characters from Shakespeare, Anne Boleyn and Robin Hood are carved into precious woods with the highest craftsmanship. In 1999, the property was bought by the Bulldog Trust, a UK registered charity which, each winter, holds an exhibition that opens it to the public.

This year’s show draws on the collections of the University of Cambridge’s eight museums, and explores the concept of discovery. Curated like a cabinet of curiosity, it is the first time items from all eight museums have been brought together. Disparate objects from zoology, anthropology, archeology, classicism, art and science intermingle, and are chosen because they all reflect or inspire discovery, as well as provoke wonder and intrigue.

Adam Savage talks education, science, art during SXSW Monday keynote
Mythbusters" co-host Adam Savage told attendees at the South by Southwest Music and Media Festival March 10 that creativity and scientific thought do not have to be two separate processes.

“Now, the first problem I see with art and science when I examine them from a cultural standpoint—what they mean to me and what I see they mean to other people—is that they have been drifting apart,” Savage said.

Savage outlined three main problems that stem from the schism of the two subjects.

The first is that people commonly see art and science as opposites. The second problem is that people often feel that the sciences and the arts are separate from them, and the third problem people not working to understand concepts if they don’t understand them.

“Science is for everybody,” Savage said. “Every time you’ve adjusted your behavior, adjusted the punchline of a joke to get a bigger laugh, that’s working empirically off of previous knowledge to build something better. That’s a scientific approach.”

Savage pointed out sports as another example of how science applies to everybody, saying that there is a lot of physics and complex thoughts that are required.

Savage said when it comes to art, it’s important for people to embrace what the can while not feeling intimidated by the work. He added that his father, who was an artist loved the phrase “I don’t know much about art, but I know what I like,” because his father understood art meant different things to different people.

“The only wrong response to art is the one you borrow from another when someone else tells you what to think,” Savage said.

Savage said what is important about the combination of art and science is that they are what bring people together to have conversations.

“That conversation is called culture. Some of is overt, some of it is covert, but it’s all part of what makes us a culture,” Savage said.

Margaret Carlberg Proves Science Is an Art Form
Margaret Carlberg is a former high school chemistry teacher and a fiber artist, someone who uses natural materials to make unique woven textiles and other pieces of artwork.

In 1998, Carlberg learned that her passions for chemistry and art could be combined, and she’s been "experimenting" ever since. She admits there have been some disappointing combinations, but when a color comes out just right, the mistakes are worth it.

One of her favorite materials to work with is oxalis, or sour grass. Many consider the plant a weed, but for her, mixing it with the right chemical makes the perfect yellow color. She even uses an insect, cochineal, to make a beautiful burgundy dye

The Neural Architecture of Music-Evoked
Autobiographical Memories

Research from McGill University reveals that the brain’s motor network helps people remember and recognize music that they have performed in the past better than music they have only heard. A recent study by Prof. Caroline Palmer of the Department of Psychology sheds new light on how humans perceive and produce sounds, and may pave the way for investigations into whether motor learning could improve or protect memory or cognitive impairment in aging populations. The research is published in the journal Cerebral Cortex.
