[Yasmin_discussions] doe art science researchers earn less ?

yasminers
kathryn evans and i are working on a paper on interdisciplinary
curricula in art and science
kathryn came across this study that implies that those of us
that have careers that bridge the arts and science are
at a disadvantage economically
is this true ?

ABSTRACT
Analyzing the pathways of people who earned interdisciplinary research
doctorates in the United States in 2010, we generate three main findings while
controlling for gender, ethnicity, discipline, and age. First, individuals who
complete an interdisciplinary dissertation display near-term income risk since
they tend to earn nearly $1,700 less in the year after graduation.
Second, students
whose fathers earned a college degree demonstrated a .8% higher probability of
pursuing interdisciplinary research. Third, the probability that non-citizens
pursue interdisciplinary dissertation work is 4.7% higher when compared with US
citizens. Our findings quantify the risks of interdisciplinary work
and contribute
to policy debates

[Yasmin_discussions] Fwd: Art-Science and the Future of Science and Technology

Yasminers

We now have two discussions going on how art science collaboration is
important for the future of science and technology

a) Art for Science's sake I ;
or the discussion of the importance of presenting art-science work in
science and technology venues- the IEEE VISAP,
but thank also to paula for mentioning Optical Society of America and
margaret SPIE- tami spector did a session at the american chemical
society
last year with Leonardo- if we are serious that art science
collaboration can lead to new science and technology-which i am .
Maybe we can do a better
of posting on YASMIN discussions for calls for papers in science and
technology conferences in events- lets get out of the media arts
ghetto !
( and lets convince scientists and engineers to present at media arts
venues if they feel they have created first rate media art !)

b) Art for Science's sake II: based on the SEAD White Paper by Bob
Root-Bernstein Michelle Root-Bernstein
which argues for the importance of art and crafts education at an
early age for future scientists and engineers-i append more details
on their work
for the discussion moderated by lucinda presley



roger

(PS - i know this way of arguing tends to 'instrumentalise' art for
the benefit of science, but this really needs discussing and
documenting-
technology of the benefit of art is well discussed and documented- and
i really do think art and science embody different ways of knowing
that cannot be merged)



ROOT-BERNSTEIN WHITE PAPER DISCUSSION:
In ongoing studies, Robert and Michelle Root-Bernstein have found that
more than 80% of scientists and engineers surveyed say that arts and
crafts education should be a required aspect of STEM education. The
authors point out it is arts and crafts experiences that gave these
scientists and engineers the thinking skills that led to their
success. These skills include: "observing, imaging and visualization,
abstracting, pattern recognition and pattern invention, analogizing,
dimensional thinking, modeling, body or kinesthetic thinking, manual
dexterity, familiarity with tools, transforming data into visual or
graphical forms, converting theories into mechanical procedures, and
understanding data and experiments kinesthetically and
empathetically". These thinking skills can be fostered in formal and
informal experiences, the authors point out. The most potent effect
comes, they say, in extended and persistent exposure to the art or
craft over a period of years.

They add, however, that research shows that only the following skills
were included in science textbooks above the 8th grade level:
observing, analogizing, modeling, and patterning. Many of the other
skills are not included in the traditional STEM textbooks at all.

Their suggestions include: informing all stakeholders of the
importance of arts and crafts education to STEM education; providing
continuous arts and crafts education from "childhood to maturity";
making these experiences available across the socio-economic spectrum
in both formal and informal settings; emphasizing imagination,
knowledge transfer, and the inventing process in arts and crafts
education; and providing further research into these areas.

Based on the findings of this study and the national need for these
vital innovation thinking skills, what suggestions do you have to
begin an introduction of these skills into your realm?

Lucinda Presley, Robert and Michele Root Bernstein

[Yasmin_discussions] VISAP in paris october 2014

Yasminers,

I had answered Roger two or 3 days ago but the mail bounced.
So here it is again.

Best
Annick

Roger

This is excellent news. October 2014 is going to be really
busy ;-)

The IEEE has always been supportive in the sense that they
welcomed articles about art in their various journals. I
wrote one about Kitsou Dubois many years ago and the column
was under the direction of Norie Neuman.

I fully agree with you that we need to get out of our
digital art ghetto, in both directions : towards the
science/engineering world and towards the art world.

One question : do you have an idea of the registration fees
for this IEEE conference ? It is usually quite expensive for
the cultural community (digital or analog).

Annick

[Yasmin_discussions] VISAP in paris october 2014

yasminers

this is early warning that the IEEE visual arts program will
have sessions at IEEE Vis that will be held in paris on october
2014- angus forbes who co chairs it says below the call for
papers will come ouot in january/february 2014 and they are
keen to have proposals from the art-science community

one of the strategies that has come out of the SEAD study
is the need to be more visible and pro active in presenting our
work within science and engineering conferences

the network science conference has been very welcoming
and has been hosting the Leonardo Day on arts, humanities
and complex networks

ACM with siggraph, sigchi etc has always been open

the american chemical society has been hosting art science
panels

its great to see IEEE vis being welcoming also

do yasminers know of any other science and engineering
conferences that are welcoming the work of the art science
community ? this could be a good topic for the yasmin discussion
list so i am copying it there- if we are serious that art-science
is important for science and engineering-we need to get out
of our digital arts ghetto !

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] the root of all evil

Hello all,

As a coincidence, i found this text in a blog about Newton Vs Leibniz well
know confrontation (sorry, only in spanish).

http://scientiablog.com/2011/05/19/la-guerra-del-calculo-matematico-newton-contra-leibniz/

This is just the thinks that would help to the student to be part of the
context (even you can understand why to use the integral symbol (large s
from "summa"). May be, in a sencond step, with the help of the arts student
can go deeply to the representation proceses, as for example in this
derivatives context with ths exhibition:

http://www.imaginary-exhibition.com/

For sure this would be an amazing kind of education,

G.

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] the root of all evil

Along Simon's line, I normally quote Lawrence Alloway in his introduction to Nine Abstract Artists (1954): "I propose to use abstract meaning to draw out of or draw away from. Figurative paintings and landscapes will be said to have been abstracted from figures and landscapes. The word concrete will be used for works of art in which a process of abstraction is not perceptible….."

Pure formalism isn't possible as everything is linked to something, if not most things, in some way. Even purist minimal formalism, such as the work of Max Bill, makes reference to something. In Bill's case he makes reference to the Modernist reductivist ethic and mathematics. A work like Malevich's White Square on White, which many consider a precursor to purist formalism, makes reference to theosophy and notions of the sublime. Beyond these issues there is the problem that a work exists as received by the reader, not as intended by the writer. The writer cannot control what the reader will bring to the work - and the reader will always bring something, contextualising and grounding the work in some kind of referential relationship.

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] The Importance of Early and Persistent Arts and Crafts Education for Future Scientists and Engineers

Great point, Cristina. You are right. Terms need to be timely.

An example: for the formal and informal elementary and secondary education
terminology, two of the terms we had selected, based on wide usage, have
recently been placed in secondary status. The reason? New science standards
for the US, which are currently in the adoption process, no longer consider
those processes at the forefront. We will still use those terms, but with
the understanding that they are not impacting standards-driven practice.

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] the root of all evil

You bring up very good examples of the importance of interdisciplinary
intersections. In our K-12 work, we have found that using fine art images
laden with scientific content to train students in visual analysis gives
them valuable analytical tools that are: 1) helping them engage more
deeply in the science content; and 2) helping them synthesize concepts
across Earth, physical and life science. We are working on more funding to
further test these strategies.

Great conversation!

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] The Importance of Early and Persistent Arts and Crafts Education for Future Scientists and Engineers

Hi Lucinda and all,

Thank you Lucinda for your words. Constructing a list of
apparently-shared-words-that-do-not-quite-mean-the-same-to-each-agent is
an extraordinary step and highly useful to start to dialog around
perception of meanings from different perspectives. It also links to the
previous comments in this debate, for example, the focus on the concept
of abstration that raises different views, as an indication that
probably there is not a shared definition.
However, we cannot forget that in addition to the division between
worlds there is a division in relation to time perspectives. Any
language is a consensus that relates to a particular moment, a living
and complex tool that changes.
Therefore, I can imagine that many concepts on this list that you are
preparing will need to be updated at different moments. I suggest that
this essential list needs to be periodically updated to avoid the risk
of petrifying meaning according to one unique time perspective even if
it incorporates different world views, from art and science, from
different agents and in an inclusive way.

Hope it is an usuful reflection,

Cheers!

Cristina
