SCI ART: Opening the Eyes to a New World

Imagination and creativity, buzzwords for the general public but it's also the main ingredient to baking new ideas that could revolutionize our modern day era.

Designed to enrich the possibilities of the impossible to students, the class of Sci Art reaches the lengths of mixing both the arts and science. Moving them like an intertwined dance balancing each other as they both raise the other's beauty. Gushing about this program can only do so much justice to the brilliant staff and students that come out for their program. Which is why my next few blogs will be on the topics I have learned in their classes that stuck with me to enrich readers of my blogs.

What is SCI ART?

To put this plainly, it is a class to teach students how art and science could work in tandem to make the impossible possible. Not only are you being taught by the lovely staffs over your class time, but also you get to learn from professionals in their field and do projects outside of just listening to lectures.

I was lucky enough to have participated in their 2-week summer course. We were taught by different professionals on the subjects that they excelled on, and that does not include Algebra or government. What I mean is nanotech, gastronomy, taxonomy, etc. Most stuff that is lightly touched upon in school but yet not talked about otherwise unless you are majoring in the subject.

This class has grown my understanding of the world and different subjects around me by giving small tastes of the different jobs and the majors people walk into. Of course, this class focused on the blending of art and science. They do so by implementing the different art techniques and scientific methods with one another like using the natural electromagnetic waves from our surroundings to create a sound track to share with others as music.

Why Should I Care?

This is an amazing class. Sci Art provides a new way to look at the world and create new and innovative ways to spread awareness or solutions to global problems like global warming and wild fire. These classes gave me the opportunity to think outside the box to find a new way to tell a compelling story about important issues such as wildfires. Using an interactive 3D modeling, hard to understand concepts could easily be turned into a more digestible bits of information that most people could easily grasp and relate to.

I mean, there are just so many written articles about a certain topic that it could be too much for one to take at face value. To have a visual or auditory representation Infront of someone about the same topic as a dozen of articles, one would think the piece with less words would be preferred.

What is Next?

The next few posts will hold the notes and take always I had about the lectures while highlighting some outside research I did on the topic. This is to give light to this lovely program and enhance everyone reading.
