Re: [Yasmin_discussions] Fwd: The Space In Between: Art, Science, & Culture Conference NYC 2017

I share Melissa Fleming's ideas that there is a rich untapped opportunity
to open the communication between the fields and include the public at
large as well. I have been seeking true collaboration that represents
transdisciplinary rigor in my own work. The best case for STEAM is not just
the illustration of scientific theory/observation; it is development of a
communication that supports rigor and develops new language to push inquiry
forward. If these practices can also lead to an intuitive and engaged
citizenry, well BULLY! Congrats on your involvement at the NYC conference,
Melissa.

Recently there have been so many events and convenings on al discussion of
post-disciplinary ethos . The topic: "how to get there" is chiefly centered
around the critical issues of the environment and ecology. Sara Gevurtz and
I have been building relationships with Marine Bio, Bio-Remediation, and
Environmental Sciences at University of West Florida. Our work has been
fairly successful to date. We started by simply engaging in field work
together. We have opened new dialogues through the comparison of the data
each member has collected (digital imaging, salinity, bacteria counts,
etc.). My colleague from Biology referred to the comparative reflections on
the different metrics as 'ground truthing'; a term which was new to me as
of last year.

Our ground truthing has led to a larger collaborations and critical
discussions of communication and the submission of new grants to move this
project to deeper inquiry. We believe our activity is moving towards an
archive that exists as aesthetics and data simultaneously. We find this
idea profound and perhaps will shift thoughts of the disciplinary silos.

These activities also led to the development of a five week regional
program and inviting compelling practitioners from around the nation to
participate and share. We are in our 4th week of visiting/in-residence
artists/scientists, lectures, exhibitions, and a colloquium we call
STEAM2017. http://uwf.edu/STEAM2017 Our big events are this week with a
keynote from Elizabeth Demaray on transdisciplinary practice and an all day
program of on the intersections, STEAM2017 Colloquium on Saturday, March 4,
2017. I do not know if any other Yasminers are in the area but all
programming is free and open to the public. Here are two FB links.
https://www.facebook.com/events/1435817116717008/
https://www.facebook.com/events/267881383640521/

I would like to hear about other scaffolding that has led to 'real'
collaborative practice and civic engagement from the members of this list.
And et me know about more conferences on deep interdisciplinary practice!
Thanks.

Deepest regards,

[Yasmin_discussions] Fwd: The Space In Between: Art, Science, & Culture Conference NYC 2017

yasminers

one of the other currently development in stem to steam
is the growing implications of science and engineering community
in advocating art-science practices

over the past decades the arts community has been more involved
and developing new kinds of practices and artists residencies
in labs were rate

this one is organised by Co-sponsored by the Department of Natural
Sciences and Mathematics at Eugene Lang College and the Ligo Project
in NY

i would be interested in yasminers comments on the issue of how to
engage more fully the STEM community itself and its professional organisations

[Yasmin_discussions] VERTIGO: the“sensitive” and the “intelligible”, desire and astonishment

yasminer

one of the particilar challenges of the STEAM argument
is that the art science work crosses many disciplinary
boundaries but not always the same ones- inter-disciplinarity is
not a discipline and cannot be organised the same way
that a discipline, like physics, is organised. In our SEAD report
we drew on the network of networks idea, of horizontally organised
work drawing on coordination nodes-

a new european led program has just started - VERTIGO and we are pleased
that Leonardo/OLATS is a member of this network of networks

http://vertigo.starts.eu/vertigo-project/

with a large network

http://vertigo.starts.eu/artistics-networks/

funded through STARTS in H2020, a number of activities have been announced
including a first forum at IRCAM and a call for artists residencies:

A program of artistic residencies as part of ICT R&D projects, through
3 yearly calls for proposals which will be selected by an
international jury. A total budget of 900 k€ is allocated by the
project for funding the participation of artists in at least 45
residencies aiming at producing original artworks featuring innovative
use-cases of the developed technologies. The first call is to be
published here on March 14th

This is an ambitious and risky program, given its scale, and given
the nervousness
of some in our community about the 'instrumentalisation' of the arts
there is some
interesting language in the announcement by declaring an aim of
developing work that is

"sensitive" and the "intelligible", desire and astonishments

check out the vertigo web site at:

https://www.ircam.fr/agenda/vertigo-forum-art-innovation/detail/


Vertigo, the new international art-innovation forum, presents
multidisciplinary events on creation and innovation in music, art,
design, and architecture in connection with digital technologies. This
new rendezvous brings together the leading players in the "sensitive"
and the "intelligible", desire and astonishment: artists, engineers,
scientists, and entrepreneurs who change and defy our present.

[Yasmin_discussions] Fwd: AHRC project

yasminers
gemma anderson sends us this steam news- much going on these days
and we welcome all yasminers to tell us about their current projects

roger malina

Dear Yasminers, thank you all for a great dialogue on STEAM, I wanted
to write to let you know about some new projects that will contribute
to the STEAM campaign.

First, the AHRC bid I submitted with John Dupre and James Wakefield
'Representing Biology as Process' was successful in receiving funding
and the project will begin in July at Exeter University (Devon, UK)
and run for three years. I will be 80% on the project as
co-investigator based in Exeter with trips to London and to Biology
Labs in Europe (Barcelona, Paris, Vienna). The project explores
drawing as a way of knowing in Biology and aims to re-integrate
drawing into scientific practice in the collaborating labs. There will
be a series of public exhibitions and workshops integrated into the
project which I hope will contribute to the art/science wider culture.

Second, I wanted to let you know that my book Drawing as a Way of
Knowing in Art and Science (Intellect Press, UK) is now in the
type-setting (final) phase of production and is due to be released in
september this year. Please let me know if you would like more
information about the book.

all best,

Gemma

all best,

Gemma

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] How to train STEAM teams

Yasminers

For a long time I have used multi-discipline group projects for this. Always important to teach something about team working as a preliminary and to take an active role in team selection - not just a collection of friends but a balanced set of skills and interests. The information below is a bit old so some URL links no longer work but the relevant things are there.

Both of the examples below come from masters courses that allowed any discipline to enroll, so the working together across disciplines was easy to include as a major feature.

(1) In a course on interactive art the project report is specified here:
http://research.it.uts.edu.au/creative/eae/intart/reports.htm
The course specification said:
"When the project is undertaken in a group, for the second assessment, students will be assessed as a team, where each member of the team will receive the same mark for the assignment, plus an individual mark determined by your tutor taking your individual report on the work into account. If you have trouble with the operation of your group, ask the Subject coordinator for advice (preferably ask as a group). If some of the group feels that other member(s) are not contributing, the tutor should be informed and a group meeting held to produce a solution."

(2) In a multimedia course the assignment was as specified here"
http://research.it.uts.edu.au/creative/eae/MM/MMass2.htm
"The students were also asked to:
Reflect and report upon your role in the team project. What have you learnt?
length: 1-2000 words"

Hope this might help.

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] How to train STEAM teams

Hi

During the project Nil by Mouth which focused on food we brought together
scientists from the Scottish Government's Strategic Research Programme Food
Land People Environmental Change with selected artists. Documentation is
here
http://creativefutureshq.com/projects/nil-by-mouth-food-farming-science-and-sustainability/
Through Alex Toland we presented a poster which shows the 'pattern of
interaction' - it was as with too many things done during projects it needs
updated -
https://www.academia.edu/8683547/Nil_by_Mouth_an_art_science_collaboration_on_sustainability_focused_by_food_and_farming

Nil by Mouth has led to further work between the teams and probably to
enduring relationships.

I've also worked on 'design innovation' projects and sandpits/chiasmas can
be effective starting points.

But through that work I discovered the evaluation approach of Nutley and
Meagher focused on Knowledge Exchange which I believe is particularly
relevant. They look for 5 forms of impact:
Instrumental
Capacity Building
Conceptual
Cultural/Attitudinal
Enduring Connectivity

Now we might debate whether the UK Policy around Knowledge Exchange has
anything to do with STEM to STEAM or multi/inter/trans disciplinary
collaboration, but I believe that Nutley and Meagher are offering a
robustly analysed range of possible outcomes which can help in thinking
about training as well as project development.

We wrote up our work here
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/306107259_Impact_by_Design

Cheers

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] How to train STEAM teams

Dear Roger during my years in Sweden I worked for an Institute called the Interactive Institute. The Institute was financed by the state and by the city of Stockholm. I was a senior research there and we worked active to develop software and applications where scientists artists and ppl from many different fields converged to create clusters of collaboration.
We used the hive as social model and we were working at many fields, digitalización of museums, making clothes adapted to surgeons and health personal loaded with chips recognising their voices and faces etc etc.

[Yasmin_discussions] How to train STEAM teams

Yasminers

our stem to steam discussion has gone quiet- I though I would pose a
different question:

Do you know how to train artists and scientists to collaborate together ?

We are organising a panel and workshop at ISEA Manizales in June- details at:

http://malina.diatrope.com/2017/02/04/training-methods-for-transdisciplinary-collaboration-manizales-columbia-call-for-key-ressources/

As part of this we hope to develop a resource guide that can help the
many STEAM teams that are being
formed- there are many training guides for other areas ( military,
business, medical , NASA..) but
there are few documented training best practices that have shown
demonstrated effectiveness.

Andres Roldan, Mauricio and I will be working with the panelists to
collect available best practice
materials and we hope yasminers may have some to share- feel free to
post you examples to this
discussion list and Roldan will aggregate them- so we can make the
ressource available on line

more details on the panelists and topics at"
