"The Three Culture" theory that is so supported by some intellectual scientists and artists/humanists, however it is today a very difficult way of putting it into practice, actually. How can an artist and a scientist work together? How do they find new ideas? Which is the way of practicing/working on an ArtScience project successfully? How does an artist contribute inside an ArtScience idea? And a scientist? I am very concerned about how we could teach new models for learning to new generations. We do know that our contemporary thinking is getting obsolete and we need a new models of collaboration to create innovative ideas."
