Subject: [CAS] UCL Lunch Hour Lecture::G. Novakovic:Tesla and the Art of
Fugue


Tesla and the Art of Fugue - Thursday 21 February 2008, 1.15-1.55pm

Artist-In-Residence Gordana Novakovic - UCL Computer Science

Abstract

Although the field of 'art and science' - the fusion of art, science and
technology - has existed for at least two decades, its validity and value are
still questioned, often very forcefully, by both the artistic and scientific
communities. This talk will examine some of the arguments both for and
against art and science, drawing on material from Tesla, the open discussion
forum on art and science at UCL Computer Science Department, and Fugue,
Tesla's first project. Perhaps some of the questions will be answered;
however, it is equally likely that some new ones will be asked.
