SciArt Magazine - All Issues February 2016 | Page 4
Letter from the Editor
Dear readers,
It’s 2016 and the science–based art movement
is growing daily. I see this growth in the number
of events happening here in NYC, around the
country, and the world that are using artistic
means to explore scientific topics. Last week
brought me to the American Museum of
Natural History for a planetarium show on the
sonification and visualization of earthquakes,
and next week will bring me to Washington
D.C.’s National Academy of Science for their
monthly D.C. Art Science Evening Rendezvous
(DASER) meeting, this month exploring the
themes of ‘Ideation, Translation, and
Realization’.
For our first issue of 2016, we re–examine
Frank Stella’s work with chaos theory in mind,
explore the blurring of boundaries between the
domestic and natural through the art of Dana
Sherwood, learn how dance can bring life to
neural mechanisms in the work of Jody
Oberfelder, consider how technology can make
us question what is ‘real’ with Ken Goldberg,
see how Imagine Science Films is supporting the
artistic visualization of science, and more.
Thank you once again, and always, for your
readership.
Sincerely,
Julia Buntaine,
Founder & Editor-in-Chief
