[Yasmin_discussions] DOES ART SCIENCE COLLABORATION CONTRIBUTE IN ANY WAY TO SUCCESSFUL SCIENTIFIC PRODUCTION

DOES ART SCIENCE COLLABORATION CONTRIBUTE IN ANY WAY TO SUCCESSFUL...

In collaborations with scientists, I have often found, as an artist,
that it is difficult from the outset to convince them of the value of
art practice and theory. I agree with the papers quoted by Roger.
There is real asymmetry. I think that this in part arises because most
scientists operate in very a different academic, institutional and
financial environment from most artists. That may well be okay, but it
also means that artists will most likely never come to nourish
scientific research.
