We don’t usually hear the words science and art together, but we’ve been misled -- science and art exist together on multiple planes, constantly informing each other in beautiful and unexpected ways. This is the first episode in our two-part mini-series on science and art. Here, we’re joined by choreographer-slash-educator Suba Subramaniam and computational-biologist-slash-generative-artist Dr. Alex Naka. They describe how they each blended science and art through their own career journeys, how the methodology of science can be used as an artistic tool, and how the creative process drives scientific curiosity. To see more of Suba’s work, you can follow her South Asian dance organization on Instagram @akademidance and on Twitter @akademi. You can find photos and videos of Alex’s artwork (along with his thoughts on science) on Instagram @bb_bygones and on Twitter @gottapatchemall This episode was written and produced by Stella Belonwu, Celia Ford, and Devika Nair.
