Information Art를 통해 예술과 과학의 만남을 통해 나타난 새로운 예술의 모습들을 자세히 개괄했던 Stephen Wilson의 새로운 저서 Art + Science 2010 이 발간되었습니다. 과학과 기술이 예술과 만나 만들어지는 최근의 작품들과 현상을 한눈에 정리해 볼 수 있는 기회가 될 것 같습니다. 책은 Information Art 때와 유사하게 다음의 질문들을 시작으로 내용을 진행하고 있습니다.
How do artists integrate scientific and technological research?
How were artists selected for this book?
Examples of historical Art-Science connections
What is the cultural value of artistic involvement with science and
technology?
생물학, 유전공학, 물리학으로부터 시작해 로봇, 유비쿼터스 기술, 인터페이스, 알고리즘, 정보 시각화까지 미디어 아트라 부를 수 있는 광대한 분야를 다루고 있습니다. 얼른 주문해서 받아봐야 겠네요.^^
