Sorry, we cannot collaborate with you if you come to us with closed minds!

On an on line science, art collaboration group, a discussion was started on scientific and artistic thought processes. It was started with an intention to find out each others’ view points on each field which might help lead into collaborative projects. The   artist – scientist  ratio was 95:5. Only a few scientists came forward to participate in the discussion. I went there as I was interested in knowing what artists think about science and scientists and how they deal with their work. In…

Good and bad in science and art

The words good and bad are dealt with differently in science and art.

In art there may not be fixed values for deciding good works or bad works ( which cannot be done accurately because your opinions are just based on perceptions which differ from person to person and place to place). If an artist  creates an art work the theme depends on his/her opinions, beliefs, ideas which again are based on his/her perception of the world around him and cultural conditioning of his mind. Again…

SCIENCE AND ART – COMPLEXITY Vs. SIMPLICITY

On an on line art forum when I said thinking for scientific research is more complex than thinking about creating art works, some artists didn’t agree with me. They said the thought processes that lead to scientific research and creating art are the same! No matter how much I tried to analyze from their point of view, my rational mind didn’t agree with them! And I am pretty sure, they are not the same! I will give reasons why.

While doing scientific research or working on a problem in…

The Evolving Fields of Artistic Research, Creative Inquiry and Humanites Based Research

While efforts in this regard certainly made large impact at the beginning of the last century, in the middle of the century, and again in the 80′s, say, the postmodern era, we see that this evolution is not completely new. But today we are seeing renewed and evolved thinking about using the arts and other creative-based disciplines as a means of research. Art as research you say? Just another nut job from California you say? Perhaps, but I think not.

I have spent the last 20 years…

ART AND SCIENCE - Why people find Science more appealing than Art

Scientists tell very interesting stories - like "Big Bang" origin of the universe, why the universe is expanding , what can happen to it in the future, how a human brain works, how we - the human beings - have evolved as the  most intelligent forms of life - some with proof and some without it! News papers report them with dedication. Day in and day out the media sings the songs of science's glory. Both children and adults get fascinated by them.

But all this is making some people in…

G. PENA: "Prozodie"

PROZODIE

Nevăzuţi, necunoscuţi
disipăm către uituci;
tânguim între răscruci
neintraţi şi neştiuţi.

Dinspre mine înspre tine
doruri, doruri concubine;
trecem veşnicii, faliţi,
păcăliţi si neiubiţi.

George PENA: " Iarnă Argheziană"

IARNĂ ARGHEZIANĂ

Decembrie, iată,
hlamida şi-a deschis,
în clinchet suav
de clopoţei;
legendă ideală
s-a întins
când decembrie,
hlamida şi-a deschis.

E feerie albă
şi de paradis,
sublimată-n ţurţuri
lungi şi grei;
decembrie, iată,
hlamida şi-a deschis
în clinchet suav
de clopoţei.

ART - Realistic or Imaginative?

When I started creating art works from science based themes in the beginning and till recently, I didn't even know people use reference photos to create realistic or photo-realistic pictures! It is just like copying from the photos! Such xerox-copy, non-thinking type of art works attract people as they show the exact picture.

However, I create art works like I see them in my mind! People who do this imaginative art works don't see the minor details of the pictures -…

Creating Art Scientifically

We often hear/read reports about deteriorating conditions of famous art works (1). While science is trying to conserve these invaluable pieces of art (2,3), you too can do your bit to make your art last long.

Friends, even if you don't create works on Science Themes, you can always create art scientifically! Yes, if you follow the methods of science, art works will be of good quality, they lost longer and don't cause health hazards to you and they will be environmentally safe.…

On The Origin Of Flight

i remember, once, i couldn't walk

sure, i could move by myself

but i couldn't walk

perhaps, i didn't feel the need to

possibly, i was happy crawling on hands and knees



yet, i could see

and from what i could see, others were walking

obviously, they had stood up, and they were walking

and i was not, but hey, i was happy crawling



and then one day, i don't remember why

i tried to stand up, but i couldn't and fell down

and so i kept… Continue

Architects Of Progress

it was a path, a road, a way forward

it was not just any other day

yet, in a sense, it could have been



had it been the unusual sunshine

the melodies of the birds

or something in the air

she now knew empty



she had chosen progress

it had become possible





it was a number, a goal, an ideal

it was not just any other whim

yet, in a sense, how could it be otherwise ?

A MASTERPIECE IN MY OPINION

 

 

A MASTERPIECE IN MY OPINION

 

            Recently I have visited several art exhibitions and shows both off and on line. As my eyes moved from one art work to another exhibited in these shows, my mind measured the depth of the minds of the artists that created them. The poems, write ups and models sent to me for reviews and approvals tell me a lot about the grounds they cover in their journey to my computer screen.

            I have more than 2000…
