In recent decades, an art movement has emerged that illuminates the latest advances in science. The Science Museum’s Roger Highfield joins science historian Arthur I. Miller, author of Colliding Worlds: How Cutting-Edge Science is Redefining Contemporary Art, artist Paul Prudence and conceptual designer Mike Phillips to explore the new avant-garde. Find out more about the artists involved, what drives them and their struggles in developing a dramatically different art form.
And a rather interesting Science Museum blog post from Roger Highfield:
