Dear Roger and Dear Yasminers,
Allow me to contribute to your SEAD project with this reference on a
similar initiative, leaded by José Luis Brea (1957-2010), in which I had
the honour of participating, in 2007.
"White Paper on the Interrelation of Art, Science and Technology in Spain"
http://www.fecyt.es/fecyt/docs/tmp/115539236.pdf
Published by:
FECYT (Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology)
National Book Catalogue Number: M-9179-2007
ISBN: 978-84-690-3520-7
This document is a bilingual edition in Spanish and in English and has
these four different chapters:
1. Training: Salomé Cuesta and Bárbaro Miyares (Polytechnic University
of Valencia)
2. Research: Juan Martín Prada (University of Cádiz)
3. Production: Roc Parés (Pompeu Fabra University)
4. Dissemination: Remedios Zafra (University of Seville)
Pau Alsina (Open University of Catalonia) was the relator of the book and
can provide more details on the whole process of preparation, discussion
and final elaboration of the conclusions, actions and recommendations to
Policy Makers gathered in this book.
I hope you all find it useful.
Warm regards,
Roc Parés

> I am proposing that on YASMIN DISCUSSION LIST we have some discussions

> science/engineering with arts/design/humanities= with recommendations on
> how
> to overcome these problems. But also how to take advantage of the new
> opportunities.
>
> This is part of a project that a network of us have been developing ,
> SEAD, and will result in a report next summer 2013. Many reports have
> already been
> written and we will also be doing a meta-analysis of previous reports.
> We are working
> on a compilation of previous reports which you will find on our web site.

> Beyond the discussion on YASMIN, we would be delighted if any YASMINERS
> would like to develop what we are calling a white paper- this is a
> document (or
> can be a video) which identifies problems and opportunities with specific
> recommendations on how to enable the solutions. I provide more details

> YASMIN co moderator
>
> All of us encounter many roadblocks to develop
> the new opportunities that link science/engineering to
> arts/design/humanities
>
> In this international initiative we are calling for 'white papers' or
> short texts that identify problems
> and opportunities when one tries to have science/engineering professionals
> collaborate with those in arts/humanities/design.
>
> These reports can be very short- one page with one recommendation, or
> even utube videos- or longer, They can be written by one person or many.
>
> We are also compiling all the reports written on these issues in the last
> twenty years and will be doing a meta-analysis of the previous
> recommendations.
>
> We would be delighted if anyone on YASMIN would like to submit a short or
> longer white paper with recommendations. Please contact me at rmalina

> SEAD Network for Sciences, Engineering, Arts and Design announces a
> call for White Papers on issues facing the international community
> seeking to enhance transdisciplinary collaboration
>
> We are seeking to survey concerns, roadblocks and opportunities, and
> solicit recommendations for enhancing collaboration between sciences
> and engineering with practioners in arts and design. These position
> papers will be submitted as part of a report to US National Science
> Foundation and the community
> from the SEAD network in the summer of 2013. With grateful
> appreciation for US funding, we recognize that activity connecting the
> sciences, engineering, to arts, and design is international and,
> furthermore, that global involvements are essential in today's
> economy. Therefore we are interested both in what US collaborators can
> learn from experiences in other countries, and vice versa, institution
> or region specific issues, and also in how to foster collaborations
> that bridge beyond regions . Cultural cross-fertilization
> via the SEAD network – whether from disciplinary, organizational or
> ethnic perspectives – is a vital component of our purpose and goals.
