Art @ Science

The arts and sciences have long been regarded as separated disciplines. In the era of the rapidly evolving computer technologies a novel interdisciplinary spirit has emerged that indicates a promising collaboration between research and art. Computer graphics, interactive arts, scientific visualization, communication, artificial life and the Internet are areas where artistic thinking influences science and where scientific methodology reaches into the arts. This work brings together the pioneer thinkers in this interdisciplinary movement, featuring articles by: Philippe Quau, Ryohei Nakatsu, Maria Grazia Mattei, Donna Cox, Demetri Terzopoulos, Przemyslaw Prusinkiewicz, and Tom Ray.
