http://www.educationnews.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/brian_scan.jpg Neuroscience joined with art has allowed for scientists to accurately map and model the brain. Mapping the brain has helped scientists see the many functions of each part of the brain, and to see if the brain is functioning correctly. A fMRI, an example of brain mapping, allows for images of the brain to be seen by doctors to see if the brain is functioning correctly. Suzanne Anker used fMRI's as a form of art by superimposing butterflies as an overlay on the fMRI which gives somewhat of an optical illusion for the viewer. Anker's technique influences scientists to continue the work to gain more information about the brain. http://www.nature.com/nrn/journal/v10/n11/fig_tab/nrn2736_F2.html In the article "Neuroculture", neuroculture is defined as "The interaction between art and science offers an opportunity to make the scientific community and the public aware of the social and ethi...
When I attended the Brainstorming session event, I was shockingly surprised on how interesting the vent was. At first, when he showed the video on the wall of all the technical details, I was confused but then tried to focus on the big picture of what is trying to be accomplished. When I read about the live experiment about how brainwaves react to music and color, I found it interesting that they believed that people could befriend other off this experiment. It also left me with a lot of questions, which I'm sure are hard to answer. What exactly does the synchronizing of brainwaves have to relate with two people being alike. Also, why did they choose octopus's as the design of the hats, I just found it interesting of all things, octopus's. Also, if the experiment was done on a significant number of people, did those people end up talking after and being alike in any way. All around, the event was pretty informational, and interesting. I wish we could've done the real ex...
Professor Vesna's video lecture was very interesting to me because prior to taking an art class in highs school, I did not associate Math with Art. Professor Vesna stated math is the study of relationships between numbers and I never thought it could relate to art. Once I took the art class I realized just how much art and math are related and the necessity of math to create a simple piece of artwork. We use math for art all around the world today and can even trace is back thousands of years ago. I now realize how important it is to have correct measurements and spacing and direction of lines to make things realistic. http://img1-azcdn.newser.com/image/1062438-12-20160325131304.jpeg In the video Lecture Professor Vesna explains Leonardo Da Vinci's impact on art and his use of linear perspective to create realistic paintings. In "The Last Supper", Da Vinci uses linear perspective by making the vanishi...
