YASMIN discussion - Introductory text

This is, of course, a personal view based on my own experience and it is far from being a complete landscape of the Art/Sci practices. In the following, I will include the writers when I talk about the ?artists? because most of the interactions in the Mestizajes programme were in the field of the literature (although Art/Sci practices also took place). What I observe in general, is that the ?where?, the space where the Art/Sci interchange takes place, is biased towards scientific scenarios (laboratories, research institutes, Universities, etc.). It is not so common to have this kind of interaction or hybridization in art museums, main libraries or Humanities departments at the University. This also defines the ?who?, in the sense that artists can easily apply for residences or short stays at ?scientific scenarios? but scientists cannot do the same in the other direction.

Concerning to the acquisition of their scientific and/or artistic knowledge, my feeling (and my own experience) is that it is by far self-teaching and therefore it is hardly free of errors and mistakes (in both cases). In this sense, a much stronger interaction between artists and scientists could substantially improve the knowledge that each one would have about the other field. This interaction could be materialized not only by offering ?courses? (science for artists or art for scientists) but also (and mainly) by the face-to-face interaction between scientists and artists in workshops, conferences, meeting and informal talks. There is still a long way to go in this sense.
