At the Edge of Science and Art

CURRENT RESEARCH PROPOSAL

A four-year programme of collaborative arts/science research linking the creation of sculpture and sound installations to both historical and contemporary meterological studies of changes to weather and climate.

This programme of research linking Universities at Brighton, Reading and Bergen brings together areas of specialist expertise in art, design and music (University of Brighton) and mathematics, meteorology and Earth Science (Universities of Reading and Bergen). The proposal further develops issues raised by earlier exploratory enquires via the Spring Group, set up at Brighton in 2005. It will generate a series of exhibitions and web-based audio-visuals and will also provide resources to recruit two PhD students and research assistants.
