Abstraction is essential to conveying complex messages in artistic expression. It is also critical in science to formulate laws of nature through abstraction based on data. Leading artists, designers, scientists, and engineers will present and discuss the cross-fertilization among art, design, science and technology.

Moderator: Hiroshi Ishii (AT)
Dedicated to the practice of art and science, this symposium focuses on synergies between both disciplines and collaborations with other sectors. After numerous years of realizing art and science projects, the results will be presented and discussed by participating artists, stakeholders and scientific institutions at this conference.
This event is realized in the framework of the European Digital Art and Science Network and co-funded by the Creative Europe program of the European Union.
Explore the artworks and projects on show at POSTCITY that raise complex ethical issues about developments in science and technology, either in their use of materials or subject matter. Artist Anna Dumitriu will also introduce her own project Controlled Commodity which explores antibiotic resistance and CRISPR gene editing.
