Mozilla Festival 2021 (March 8th – 19th, 2021)

Bridges: A SciArt Exhibition.

Bridges: A SciArt Exhibition, is a virtual exhibition of selected collaborative work among teams of scientist and artists developing sciart under the Convergence Initiative umbrella from 2017 to 2020. Different mediums suitable for virtual format are used. This exhibition can run complementing the panel discussion Bridges: The Value of SciArt Collaborations in a Global Village.


What is the goal and/or outcome of your session?:

Goal: Familiarize the audience with artwork based in science-art collaborations created in the Convergence Initiative.
Outcome: Spark curiosity on the neuroscience topics cover by each work, as well as interest for the individual work of each team.

How will you deal with varying numbers of participants in your session?:

I have experience escaling down. Each activity and workshop we design can be worked from group to individual. In case of panel discussion, we will enjoy a conversation even among us hahahaha. We also love to get things in record, so if people cannot make it, they can always access to the materials later.

We're hoping that many efforts and discussions will continue after Mozfest. Share any ideas you already have for how to continue the work from your session.:
