Science, the Arts, and the Humanities |

Passion, creativity,
and the urge for expression are essential human qualities that
inspire science, the arts, and the humanities, and thus constitute
a common bond among them. WISL helps people explore, discuss,
and cultivate the intellectual and emotional links between science,
the arts, and the humanities. People can value, appreciate, and
enjoy science without a deep understanding of specific details,
just as they can appreciate music without a specialized knowledge
of music theory, or appreciate literature, the theater, and the
visual arts without being experts in those fields. Programs of
the Initiative focus on the relationships, similarities, and differences
in inquiry, creativity, and personal expression among scientists,
artists, and humanists. A specific goal is to give musicians,
artists, writers, and performers – present and future – an appreciation
of science and enable them to see and understand the connections
between science and the arts. |
