Science and Creativity - Workshop

Explore the links between science and art, and the importance of creativity for

STEM careers as everyone gets the chance to unleash their creative abilities! We are

often told that we are either artistic or scientific, and that these are somehow

opposing- but that is far from the case. For as long as people have been doing

science, art has been a part of it- and science is intensely creative too, needing the

ability to dream up ideas about the world to solve unanswered science questions!

In this session, we introduce some of the ways in which art has inspired science, and

science has inspired art. We investigate what is going on inside the creative brain,

and how to tap into your own creative abilities, and develop them with practice, just

like any other skill. Then we get hands-on, with everyone creating their own piece of

string-art inspired by the brain’s amazing ability to change, based on your

experiences
