Colliding Worlds. How Cutting-Edge Science Is Redefining Contemporary Art
In recent decades, an exciting new art movement has emerged in which artists illuminate the latest advances in science. Some of their provocative creations a live rabbit implanted with the fluorescent gene of a jellyfish, a gigantic glass and chrome sculpture of the Big Bang itself can be seen in traditional art museums and magazines, while others are being made by leading designers at Pixar, Google's Creative Lab, and the MIT Media Lab. The author of Einstein, Picasso and other celebrated books on popular science and creativity, Arthur I. Miller takes readers on a wild journey to explore this new frontier. From the movement's origins a century ago when Einstein shaped Cubism and X-rays affected fine photography to the latest discoveries of biotechnology, cosmology, and quantum physics, Miller shows how today's artists and designers are producing work at the cutting edge of science.
