  For Ars this year: Origins: Transgressing Frontiers in in Art-Science Collaboration
  1 August 2011, 8:02 am
  I willl be talking at Ars Electronica this year.

  https://ars.electronica.art/origin/en/category/blog/

  Their theme is Origins, they have a project with CERN

  here is my talk abstract= would be interested in any comments or suggestions

  on how to develop this idea !!

  Origins: Transgressing Frontiers in in Art-Science Collaboration
  Astronomers and physicists find themselves deeply interconnected as
  they investigate the origin and evolution of the universe and its
  dependence on understanding the nature of matter at the smallest
  scales; the infinitely large and the infinitely small are coupled
  across many frontiers of scale. The search for origins is one that
  permeates many fields in the sciences as well as the arts and
  humanities; closely coupled to the idea of origins is the idea of
  frontiers. Today we see a proliferation of innovative collaborations
  between artists and scientists and their cultural embedding is
  important in understanding their motivation and unfolding. Metaphors,
  analogies and models are not always translatable between disciplines,
  and by their nature trans-disciplinary practices are trans-gressive of
  borders. We need to re-examine our concepts of frontiers, their
  cultural loading, but also how scientific developments are shifting
  the concepts of frontiers and borders whether through the impact of
  biometrics, the science of complex networks, or the coupling of
  virtual and physical spaces. In this talk I will use the ideas around
  origins and frontiers to discuss some contemporary examples of art
  science collaboration.
