Re: [Yasmin_discussions] self introduction

Dear All,

Perhaps it is useful for us to create a taxonomy of the different types of collaboration and write where which problems occur, so that solutions may be collected. I'm sure others will have written about this, but just to summarize a rough initial list:


1) Collaboration to illustrate science (here science commissions artists to help illustrate, often as translation to the general public)


2) Collaboration in which artists in labs 'playing' with the 'fun things' one finds in labs (in search for for instance new aesthetic)


3) Collaboration with actual integration of methods (may include all aspects of the above) - This I would refer to as artistic research or art research

- led by individual artist (where scientists are advising collaborators)

- led by scientist (Where artists are advising collaborators)

- led by an artist and a scientist in a team

* methods are very different when collaborating with humanities or engineering - different methods, different problems...


4) Network collaboration

- corporate collaboration (funds, knowledge production)

- organizational collaboration (non-profit funds, PR)
- institutional collaboration (PR, presentation locations)

5) Institutional Collaboration (when the initiative comes from a university)

 
* the very real issues that happen related to time organization etc

To be clear on the different types of art research-artistic research, here is a small list I once put together to explain the different types of students that participated in the Honours Programme Art and Research:

5 Types of Participatory art research-artistic research students
1. A university student interested to get closer to art with the interest of gaining depth and new perspective in relation to their own discipline. Participating observer.

2. A university student who is interested in the integration of artistic methods without aspiration of making art. Integrating artistic methods as an enrichment of academic methodologies. Art without the artist. Methods of re-enactment.

3. A hybrid student. One who seeks new forms of knowledge production combining artistic and academic methods aiming for the highest achievements in both methodologies.

4. An art student who wants to get closer to the theories that are related to his work. Aims for high artistic achievement. Knowledge development is Secondary.

5. An art student who wants to get inspired by academic theories. To get closer to science. Theories are applied to suit the artist and are not tested or analyzed for truth.

[Yasmin_discussions] self introduction

Hi Yasminers,

After following the discussion for some time I wanted to briefly introduce myself

I work as Associate Professor in Digital Media at the Georgia Institute of Technology where I teach mainly on issues of hybrid spaces and performance as interaction. All in all I am fascinated by the intersection of the digital with the physical domain and explore this borderline in video games, mobile technology, and digital performances. I direct the Digital World and Image Group and remain involved in various interdisciplinary research centers.

For some time now, my group has been working on larger and smaller collaborations with artists and educators (schools and museums). Being a rather experimental person myself, I prefer the small-scale project approach from where one can grow larger endeavors. For example, doing design sketches as discussion starters instead of full projects that need a lot of money and time.

please contact me if that calls for further information

best

michael

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] consilience and trans-disciplinary bridges as enablors

Dear all,

I've been out some days for a seminar on Digital Humanities in Marbella,
Spain. It has been a really interesting seminar where different kind of
theorists and practitioners like art historians, philosophers,
philologists, computer scientists, media theorists, engineers, artists,
designers, curators, cultural mangers etc.. met and shared ideas about
using and creating digital technologies for research and teaching of
Humanities. There was a lot of discussion about concrete projects and
methods for collaboration, that lead us to epistemological frameworks. It
was really interesting to see how we moved from concrete to abstract, and
then back to concrete in a inter/trans-disciplinarity way.

Paul I guess that this self-reflexivity in action we were talking about
migth be considered as one of the first benefits that art-science
collaborations must take into account. Working in concrete projects with
other disciplines makes you aware of your own discipline strengths and
limits, and can help you to push them further later.

Cristina, I liked your comparison with jazz improvisation. I also play as
much jazz as I am able to, and I am addicted to that feeling that comes out
when improvising freely in a band. Many times you surprise yourself and the
others when improvising, it's a collective force based on individual
skills, and once all gets coordinated and synergy flourish then "magic" (as
some have defined "emergence" too) appears.

The main differences with transdisciplinarity processes is that all
musicians share a common basic language: music. And even if the "rules" for
music might be different if you are a free-jazzer, a be-bop, latin or pop
jazzer you are able to communicate with the other just by listening to
melody, harmony and rhythm, and then playing. But anyway I am a jazz
practitioner, not a theorist.. I will take a look at those links you gave
us.

Many thanks,

Pau

[Yasmin_discussions] STEM TO STEAM

Lucinda

Thanks for joining this discussion on how to enable
collaboration between science/engineering and arts/design/humanities
today

Most of the yasmin list will not be familiar with the STEM to STEAM
acronyms as they are very american terms- ( most of YASMIN
is outside the US) it would be great if
you could explain, without acronyms !!, what the stem to steam
is all about - and why you think this approach enables
new forms of collaboration and problem solving

there are similar initiatives in europe but they are often carried
under new initiatives in public engagement ( see for instance
the STUDIOLAB initiative

Thank you, Charis.

I've also just subscribed to YASMIN and am looking forward to sharing our
mutual interests in the arts/science intersection.

I am Lucinda Presley. I am director of an institute that integrates the
fine arts with STEM (STEM to STEAM) in school and museum settings. We use
this integration to promote STEAM engagement, learning, and the 21st
century thinking skills.

I am very interested in ways that the intersection of the fine arts and
STEM promotes problem-solving and creative/innovation thinking.

Thank you.

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] consilience and trans-disciplinary bridges as enablors

dear Michael, dear all,

thank you for the good reference Michael. I found this link about
Harrell's work ( Interview with Fox Harrell by Anne Khaminwa): "How An
Artist-Scientist Conjurer Thinks, Works and Lives that can be
interesting to explore here. The article can be downloaded from:
http://cms.mit.edu/news/2011/05/
Other contributions can also be very pertinent to the discussion but
they are seminars so I do not have them and do not know how to access
them. In special it could be very good to access information about these
seminars but I am not sure they are published or accesible:

-"Working Across Disciplines: Crafting Interdisciplinary Projects,"
Moderator and Presenter. Ford Foundation Fellows Conference, Irvine, CA.
October 16, 2010;

- "Improvisation as a Way of Life: A Symposium," Panelist Brown
University, February 25, 2011.

Do you, or anyone else, have some more references in this sense? and in
concrete about processes that emerge in Jazz improvisations as possible
inspiration models for fostering interdisciplinarity between
art-science-humanities-engineerings? Which are the elements that
configurate this kind of improvisation? can they be translated into
other kind of interdisciplinary improvisations for collaboration so that
fixed practices can get some liberation from rigid patterns and start to
find consilience?

Another possible inspiration can come from how children work together.
Maybe some model to analyse can come from this kind of collaboration
based on innocent vision in which mistakes and playing are welcome, and
people do not feel afraid of making mistakes in front of experts of
other fields. Trust and freedom are a basic features in any
collaborative environment and certainly happens more among children than
in trans-disciplinary bridges.
