The evolution of communication systems, the access to interdisciplinary
codes, the development of computer science and interactive
networks have been responsible over the past few years for a profound
transformation in the forms of artistic creation and, more generally,
in culture.
The result has been the abandonment of the habitual venues (theatres, concert
halls, galleries) for new modes of fruition and entertainment.
Science increasingly contributes to the support of this new dimension, with its
forms of cognitive and technological application of perceptive phenomena.
Contemporary works of art foresee, as integral features, the design and preparation of spaces, both real and virtual, and the interaction with the public.

IThese elements are essential as the means for communicating the expressive
requirements of the artist which, through science, find the most appropriate
forms of application. Which sciences are closer to and interactive with the arts?
Is there a common planning feature shared by Art and Science?
Our intention is that this event, which includes performances, a conference,
stages, artistic and functional installations, should provide the answer
to these questions and investigate the criteria which link Art and Science
and their capacity for affecting social transformations.
In addition, the Conference will be organized in an unconventional form:
the contributions will be presented accompanied by performances, with
the direct participation of artists and scientists. In fact, artistic events will
be presented at the same time, or subsequent to, the contributions which
are closely linked to the matter of the research and to the cultural fields
proposed by the speakers.... More >>>

The relationship existing between art and science is not something new, nor particularly unprecedented. Modern painting is based essentially on both scientific and technological discoveries: parallelperspective and oil paints. It is not often that an individual is blessed with the dual spirit of artist and scientist, even though such an eventuality is in
no way singular. Georg Büchner, for instance, published a pioneer research work on the maxillary of a particular species of fish at the same time as he was writing “Woyzeck”; it is also said that Einstein was a particularly gifted. What is rare, however, is for art and science to meet in one sole work, or
even to interpenetrate...
