Dimensions of Appearance

| Host: Daniela Brill

We spoke with artist Monica C. LoCascio, artist and astrophysicist Ulrike Kuchner, and physicist Jairo Alexis Rodriguez, about how the ways in which scientific and artistic ideas are made visible reveal deep processes of thought and action. How do the ways in which things appear in the world relate to the multiple layers and networks that intertwine them?

Ulrike Kuchner

Austrian-born extragalactic astronomer and visual artist. In her research, Ulrike studies how mass assembles in the Universe and how galaxies form and evolve over their lifetimes. Ulrike's art often deals with the themes of humanity and imperfections in data.

Monica C. LoCascio

US-born multimedia artist focused on issues of resonance, connection and interference, particularly within and between bodies. Her work is inspired by topics such as biophotonics, particle entanglement, memory and thermodynamics and the nonlinearity of time.

Jairo Alexis Rodríguez

Professor and Researcher in Physics. Researcher in theories with extra dimensions and the search for the Higgs Boson. Connected with the LHCb Experiment at CERN.

Daniela Brill

M.A. in Art and Science from the University of Applied Arts Vienna. Her work focuses on theories of science, especially particle physics and cosmology. Daniela works in collaboration with scientific institutions such as CERN through art@CMS, Hephy and the Cavendish Laboratories in Cambridge.
