Dear all,
we are happy to invite you to our conference
“On the epistemic Dimension of Color in the Sciences“ on November 17 and 18, 2016
in the Interdisciplinary Laboratory Image Knowledge Gestaltung in the Hermann von
Helmholtz-Zentrum für Kulturtechnik at Humboldt-University, Berlin.
From amazingly colorful antique relics to the attempts to standardize
colors in biomedical imaging – color gains in relevance in the sciences.
Yet the epistemic role of color, its long-standing neglect due to
historic symbolic, in part gendered, ascriptions, and the function of
color in visualizations for internal scientific use have not received
much attention in the sciences and humanities to date.
Therefore, in this conference we invite participants to investigate the
epistemic dimensions of color in the sciences, across disciplines and
across history.
We would be happy if you share our program! Please let us know if you
like to have paper copies to hand them around.
