They create visual images, models and scenarios that are gruesome, baffling or beguiling. Contemporary scientists frequently talk about 'beauty' and 'elegance' - while artists hardly ever do. In this engaging book Siân Ede asks crucial questions about the implications of science for art and vice versa, the nature of beauty, the 'battle' between the arts and sciences, and art and the environment. Featuring the work of artists including Christine Borland, Dorothy Cross, Eduardo Kac. ![]() Free Download Art and Entertainment: A Philosophical Exploration by Andy Hamilton English | 2024 | ISBN: 1138599948 | 294 Pages | True ePUB | 1.65 MB ![]() Free Download Art and Entertainment: A Philosophical Exploration English | 2024 | ISBN: 1138599948 | 295 Pages | PDF (True) | 53 MB Philosophers have discussed art - or artistic practices such as poetry - since ancient times. But systems of art and entertainment appeared only in the modern era - in the West, during the 18th and 19th centuries. And philosophers have largely neglected the concept of entertainment. In this book Andy Hamilton explores art and entertainment from a philosophical standpoint. He argues, against modernist theory, that art and entertainment are not opposites, but form a loosely connected conceptual system. Against postmodernism, however, he insists on their vital differences. ![]() Free Download Art and Biotechnology: Viral Culture from CRISPR to COVID by Claire Nettleton, Louise Mackenzie English | 2024 | ISBN: 1350376035 | 280 Pages | True ePUB | 11.5 MB ![]() Free Download Art Therapy in the Treatment of Addiction and Trauma by Patricia Quinn English | 2021 | ISBN: 1785927868 | 320 Pages | True ePUB | 1.43 MB ![]() Free Download Art Of Laparoscopic Surgery: Textbook & Atlas, 2nd Edition (4 Volumes) by C Palanivelu English | 2020 | ISBN: 9352708458 | 1699 Pages | True PDF | 150 MB ![]() Free Download Nichole Rae, "Art Journal Art Journey: Collage and Storytelling for Honoring Your Creative Process" English | 2014 | pages: 128 | ISBN: 1440330077 | EPUB | 70,0 mb Words-Color-Courage ![]() Free Download Arrow of Time and Reality: In Search of a Conciliation By Anne Magnon 1997 | 312 Pages | ISBN: 9810230222 | PDF | 42 MB What is Reality? What is the role of human consciousness in the shaping of such a concept? These questions are as old as mankind and gave rise to the MIND-MATTER dualism which preoccupied so many physicists: Schrödinger, Wigner, etc. This book considers the problem within the realm of contemporary physics, and shows that it could be related to that of ultimate entities. The author develops the viewpoint according to which human thinking activities are fruit of the Cosmos and of its combinatorial activity. Ultimate entities, the bricks out of which our universe is made, could be hidden, as a primordial alphabet, in the foundations of the pyramid of increasing complexity, which seems to unfold as a language and to culminate in the emergence of organized and thinking structures. This is analyzed in the context of cosmological screening and horizons (an expression of our lack of access to totality) where macroscopic and microscopic can mingle, where a unification of interactions and a matching of available arrows of time can take place. This context is also that of quantum evaporation of particle-antiparticle like entities, which triggers entropy increase, and of the overlap between General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. The problem of an (global) origin of the cruising (and evanescent) "Now" is considered. A creative principle (reminiscent of the biological mitosis) is also presented which is the generator of the "event" through breaking of temporal symmetry. In this perspective, time-flow is an emergent concept: Creation of the World is declined priority on the concept of "coming into existence". Participant to the origin of the World, all (possibly virtual) processes are able to culminate into the phenomenon of consciousness and Self-Awareness. |
