Welcome
Physics & Art
Physics Project for 2nd Semester
Research & present an example of a connection between Physics and Art.
Your choice of art can be visual, musical, photographic, choreographed or literary. The key criteria for the selection of a particular art form is the need to explicitly express & explain a specific connection between the art work presented and some area of physics.
Projects can be individual or in groups of no more than 3 people. All members must contribute in a definite fashion, which must be documented by the members.
The presentation will be limited to 5 minutes in front of the class to demonstrate & explain the Art and the underlying physics principle, which inspired or provides the basis for the artwork. The presentations, or performances will be done in May.
A synopsis of the Art and Physics connection planned for your project in written form will be required by March 27th with all group members planned participation outlined.
E. O. Wilson has suggested that the link between science and art can be made closest when both are viewed from the vantage point of the study and appreciation of complexity: “The love of complexity without reductionism makes art; the love of complexity with reductionism makes science.”
