How do we communicate discoveries? Capturing the essence of a concept and expressing it to a broader audience is the key to success in both science and art. We will be investigating how to get ideas to reach beyond their creators through the intersection of the scientific and artistic methods, focusing on the processes with which both scientists and artists engage with the world to collect, interpret and translate information. We will be conducting hands-on activities and exploring resources on campus, ultimately producing our own showcase of science communication through art.
Open to Natural Sciences Freshman with a declared major or on the Natural Sciences Exploratory Track.
