Workshop “Art, Science, and Philosophy”
The workshop “Art, Science, and Philosophy” will bring together philosophers, artists and scientists to rethink the concept of art and the concept of nature and “human nature” in the age of technoscience, where the biological sciences become the new technological frontier.
This event is part of the research collaboration “Question about the Limits: Art, Science, and Philosophy” between the Department of Media Theory, University of Applied Arts Vienna, and the Faculty of Philosophy and Literature, National Autonomous University of México (UNAM), Mexico City. The project aims to initiate and develop a debate about the relationship of ontology and aesthetics in the age of technoscience from the perspectives of art, science, and philosophy, driven by the question: What is art in the age of technoscience?
With lectures by Ingeborg Reichle, María Antonia González Valerio, Virgil Widrich, Bernd Kräftner, Herwig Turk, Tanja Gesell, Christoph Bock, Frank Rösl.
