Art and Science Are BFFS: The Creative Corner

Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

In this video [25:55] learn about many ways to combine art and science as we observe the world around us. We often think of scientists as methodical and precise, and artists as free-willed, impulsive creators. But did you know that some art has science packed right into it? And that artists throughout history have helped scientists conduct their work? Learn about the photography of Berenice Abbott who documented the changing New York skyline with photographs of architecture and urban design of the 1930s, and science interpretation in the 1940s to 1960s. Learn how to use the sun to air dry your salt dough creations and explore papier-mache.

Rating
0.0 stars

Students learn how forces are used in the creation of art. They come to understand that it is not just bridge and airplane designers who are concerned about how forces interact with objects, but artists as well. As "paper engineers," students create their own mobiles and pop-up books, and identify and use the forces (air currents, gravity, hand movement) acting upon them.

In the following video Paul Andersen explains how the mechanical energy added or removed from a system results from work. For work to occur a force must act parallel to the displacement of the system. Since work and energy are equivalent the work-energy theorem allows of for calculating the work as the change in kinetic energy. [7:01]
