SCIART: PRÁCTICAS TRANSDISCIPLINARES EN LA SINERGIA DEL ARTE Y LA CIENCIA

Abstract

A possible definition of the term SciArt would include its characterization as a post-disciplinary and post-media practice, merging elements typically associated with Arts and Sciences, generating research in both areas, while not forgetting technology as a facilitator and product of the scientific field in which it is grounded. In this context, and from our research (ASTER project, FEDER funds https://aster.us.es)), we aim to provide some evidence regarding the historical and institutional context of SciArt practices, as well as the characterization of these practices in their multiple dimensions. We attempt to address certain questions: What are the precedents in SciArt production? How do the involved agents typically develop this type of work? What defines a SciArt piece?
