Moderator: Andrew Newman (Ars Electronica)
What constitutes creativity and imagination is a potentially contentious point, yet an outlook that focuses on areas of intersection between the arts and sciences can lead to certain, tangible benefits. These can include techniques for collaborating across disciplines, an ability to consider varied perspectives, and skills in identifying points of common ground. Such competencies are combinatorial in nature, and if integrated into a higher education curriculum, will lead to an acceleration in transdisciplinary innovation. Join us in our Birmingham Garden as we explore approaches to STEAM education with some of the leading transdisciplinary institutions in Europe.
