Project description:
How does the brain connect scientific thought with artistic creation? How can we make that connection stronger? This project is using existing neuroscience to create new neuroscience, making artistic and musical creations that can “speak” the language of scientific knowledge in a way that bridges both of these usually separate worlds.
