Prof. Dr. Carlo Ventura on Art and Science

“Cells vibrate in mechanical, electrical, and visual patterns – this can spark a scientific progress, but also artistic endeavors. At the same time these vibrations dictate how the cell grows, regenerates, and communicates. Understanding the vibrations – scientifically and artistically – can change how we approach health and well-being.”

“Science cannot hope to synthesize all the information on one topic into a coherent whole. Our understanding of the world will therefor always be partial. Art on the other hand is a direct way of experiencing or expressing an idea or an emotion as a whole and in an immediate experience. Hence, the sense of wonder and beauty are novel ways of thinking about ourselves and the world, which can take us further than just the collection of scientific knowledge alone.”
