Experiment as Event in the Arts and Sciences

Date: 19-20 November 2009 Time: 12.30 19 Nov - 17.00 20 Nov

Venue: IAS Building MR2/3

Workshop 2: Experiment as Event in the Arts and Sciences

19-20 Nov 2009

Institute for Advanced Studies, Lancaster University

In this workshop we will focus on experimental practice in the arts and sciences. Hans-Jorg Rheinberger has described experimental systems as operating with a logic of 'differential reproduction', in that they are systems for organising the interrogation of the world in a way that is always open to the generation of surprise and novelty. In the workshop we look at different ways in which this logic operates in the sciences and in different forms of art, in order to find both contrasts and continuities between their practices - and thus to further illuminate the fundamentally evental characteristic of the experimental.

Speakers include

• Henning Schmidgen (Max Planck Institute for the History of Science, Berlin)
• Neal White (artist, Office of Experiments)
• Jonathan Bird (Informatics, University of Sussex)
• Jane Prophet (Department of Computing, Goldsmiths, University of London)
• Joanna Pawlik (Surrealism Centre, University of Manchester)
• Hannah Redler (Head of Arts Projects, Science Museum)
• Richard Haley (Physics, Lancaster University)
• Jussi Parikka (Anglia Ruskin University)
• Wolfgang Ernst (Humboldt University)
• Nicholas Gebhardt (Lancaster University)
• Antti Saario (Lancaster University)
• Karen Juers-Munby (Lancaster University)
