25 September 2023, 14.00-15.00 CEST, Zoom
The third seminar in a programme culminating in the AGM, titled: ‘Arts and Science: Mutual Creativity and Inspiration’.
In the third Arts & Science event of the Young Academy of Europe, we will host a panel discussion between three scholars with different perspectives on art as a means of science communication, with a focus on the important ethical considerations in doing this work. With rapidly growing interest from scholars in working with the creative arts, toward novel channels of communicating science to new audiences, it is important to be mindful of the pitfalls of this work and to craft these collaborations with care.
Peter Weingart is a Professor Emeritus of Sociology, Sociology of Science and Science Policy at the University of Bielefeld, interested in science advice to politics, science–media interrelation, and science communication.
Miriam Sturdee is a lecturer at the University of St Andrews in the School of Computer Science, focusing on the intersection between computing and the arts, and is especially interested in how arts-based approaches can inform technical fields within STEM.
Joseph Lindley is a Senior Research Fellow at ImaginationLancaster. He aims to capture and communicate the value of Design Research, showing its relevance to help address the 21st century’s socio-technological challenges.
