What happens when two different minds interconnect and get to think about how they think? The ArtScience Monthly is about putting our curiosity into action and learning from one another via collective exchanges.

On December 15, we'll start the evening with inspiration talks by musician and composer Clemens Wenger and physicist Thomas Juffmann. Together with the Austrian soul band 5/8erl in Ehr’n and the arts & science project SEEC Photography which they are respectively part of, Clemens and Thomas have collaborated on the music video “Schau wo wir jetzt sind” (“Look Where We Are Now”). The video lasts 3 minutes and 48 seconds, but its real time duration is only 427 nanoseconds. With its action slowed down by a factor of 500 000 000, this might be the most extreme slow motion video in art history.

The video will be released on December 10th, and we'll have the pleasure to discover it together at the ArtScience Monthly.

About the ArtScience Monthly

Every third Tuesday of the month, we invite you to join in these open and informal evenings, where we create playful situations for interactions with other participants. We share thoughts, practice open-mindedness and create new bonds, while imagining alternative futures by crossing perspectives beyond disciplinary boundaries. Besides, each session starts with impulse talks by an artist and a scientist; just enough to get inspired and start off an exchange!

These events are organized by STATE Studio in the framework of Curious Minds: a community program that aims to explore new forms of collective thinking, learning and acting at the intersection of art and science.
