Many often think it costs money, it’s only art and exhibitions, and anything short of fun. However, I had an amazing experience. Apparently, most exhibitions are closed off for the wonderful renovation, building, and creation of Made in LA. This is fantastic book I actually had the chance to read -- so when I found out that they closed off half of the museum for this, I wasnt that upset. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A series of more than one hundred contemporary exhibitions and installations featuring local, national, and international emerging artists. </span></div>

It was basically a car traveling through the desert with others traveling with him, a road trip is what we like to call it for a lack of a better term. But as soon as the narration begins, it is interrupted by documentary-style interviews.” Passing in this way from one film genre to another, Lamelas manages to blur the boundary between fact and fiction.” (Luxonline, 2005) I, unfortunately, did not get the chance to take pictures inside considering the theatre was almost full and dark.</span></div>

The architecture portrays cinema's play of light and movement in real space. The theatre sat 294 surprisingly comfortable seats. When I walked in, I didn’t expect for it to be an actual seating theatre. It was pitch black, but the screen lit up the room. According to the Hammer Museum employee, “Billy Wilder fled Nazi Germany in the 1930s to become a master of Hollywood film language and a shrewd comic observer of the American scene.” </span></div>

Even if it’s just to study or roam around. They have these incredibly fun, twirly chairs that actually very comfortable to sit in. There’s also a cafe where you can order food and a seating area to enjoy your meal, meet with friends, or study! It’s so peaceful.

After waiting in line for an hour (which is apparently not long compared to the two-three hour wait many said they’ve waited in the past), it’s safe to say the wait in the beaming sun was worth it. The outside of The Broad is one of the most entailing and fascinating, eye-catching pieces of art amongst it all. This is because it withholds a “veil-and-vault” concept. According to the Broad museum worker, the museum is home to the 2,000 works of art in the Broad collection, which is among the most prominent holdings of postwar and contemporary art worldwide. Some of the artists I will be discussing throughout this blog are </span><span style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Ellsworth Kelly, Haring, Rauschenberg, Chuck, and Jeff Koons (my favorite). </span></div>

Haring became a recognizable figure in New York, attaining somewhat of a celebrity status that drew much attention to his gallery shows, public projects, and merchandising.” (The Broad Museum, 2016) </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Linda Dalrymple Henderson makes great points throughout her study about art techniques and science in relation to the theory of special and general relativity surfaced into the world of art, in which was influenced by the paradigm shift. </span></div>

Initially Kelly’s approach and work were radically different from the abstract art being practiced in the city. Instead of abstracting from a figure or an image, Kelly was more interested in the experience of abstractions found in everyday life and nature. Abstraction was less something to be achieved then re-created. (The Broad Museum, 2016)</span></div>

The Broad says, “An early manifestation of this mode and a key work in his career is </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Untitled</span><span style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, 1954.

The surface is open to drips and chance combinations, not with an expressive intent as in abstract expressionism but instead with a field of unexpected juxtapositions and perceptual shifts.”(The Broad Museum, 2016) Juxtaposition of mathematics, industrialization, art and science actually becomes more simple and easier to understand as our perspective and society changes and develops. We can think back Bill Nye the Science Guy, an American TV show where he mixes the serious science of everyday things with fast-paced action and humor. Here we can see that science has been built into entertainment where education has altered and developed to teach and entertain this generation. It’s a “cool” way of learning. </span></div>

We continue to move towards making math and art, art and science. Unlike many, I actually had amazing math and science teachers that initially made me love both subjects. The term de-geniuses by R. Buckminister Fuller comes to mind when he says that every person has an inner genius, but the education system tends to de-genius our perspective.</span></div>

This piece of work features two vinyl inflatable toys. Jeff Koons is one of my favorites because of different and vibrant his work is. I became a fan of his work when I noticed a family friend had his art in her home. I proceeded to ask her about them because they were so different and she actually informed me of a lot of information that lead to me loving Koons' art work. </span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I have been fascinated with space since I started watching science documentaries with my dad at a young age. The universe is a massive, never-ending hole that tends to baffle all of us. The Earth we currently live on is large, beautiful, full of surprises, unknown, and bigger than our minds can imagine. But when we think about the universe as a whole, it’s five zillion times what we fathom about the Earth. It’s even difficult to measure the size of the universe because of how unknown it is and the fact that it cannot be compared to anything else is a head scratcher within itself. To me, space has also been art as I know it has been to many. The fact that we have only explored a tiny portion of our universe tells us that there is so much more out there to be discovered. Two years ago, I had the opportunity to take an astronomy class that was actually held at the planetarium in Santa Barbara. There, we had access to millions of dollars worth of advanced equipment where we learned to use a high tech and newly revolutionized telescope to see into space. Not only was it the most fascinating experience, but the beauty of space through the lens of a telescope had me in awe til this day. Below is a photo of the moon that I took through the telescope on a night of a full moon.</span></div>

When we think about the phenomenal features that have developed over time to improve the studies within the space, we often think about Galileo Galleli. He had a telescope invention that played a monumental role in our understanding of the solar system and being able to hypothesize the possibility of other life forms in the universe (Space Pt1). How did he do it? </span><span style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Galileo pointed his telescope towards the one thing that people thought was perfectly smooth and as polished as a gemstone – the Moon. Imagine his surprise to find it “”uneven, rough, full of cavities and prominences.” His telescope had its flaws, such as a narrow field of view that could only show about one quarter of the lunar disk without repositioning, but a revolution had begun.</span></div>

Movies like Interstellar, Gravity, Armageddon (one of my favorites), and even Star Wars, have demonstrated a creative and artistic way to distribute information to all of us. They often explore the endless possibilities and creativity that space, art and technology have to offer. While some of these movies are based off of the future of technology, the still hold a lot of valid information that very much fascinates us in a way that blows our made how unknown space really is. </span></div>

As Professor Vesna talks about in her lecture video, she has been a part of nanotech for a long time. She expresses how nanotechnology goes beyond everything we’ve ever known and is something much greater than us and everything else surrounding us. This includes sciences in the sense the old methodology does not work in nanoscience. Professor Vesna explains it as a collaborative science that is essentially shifting paradigm. Nanotechnology really pushes us over the edge. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Dr. Gimzewski says the term was originally coined by Norio Taniguchi and then explains how almost every aspect of science is affected by nanotechnology. One fascinating aspect about nanotechnology is that it has an immense capability to alter the world of science. However, most people do not know anything about how influential and effective nanotechnology is. </span></div>

NanoArt is a complex artistic-scientific. The fact of the matter is that art makes science so much clearer for us to understand and enhances science and technology. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">As stated in lecture by Jim Gimzewski and Victoria Vesna, “In both the philosophical and visual sense, ‘seeing is believing’ does not apply to nanotechnology, for there is nothing even remotely visible to create proof of existence” (Gimzewski and Vesna).</span></div>

Stained Glass windows are a large part of the beauty of churches. I remember I used to go to Catholic church every Sunday and sit in awe of each unique glass window. It’s like they individually told a story full of color and shapes. The integration of metallic nanoparticles within the hot glass completely showcases how immensely beautiful and articulate nanotech art is or can be. “Some example could be cited as the ruby-red colour coming from gold nanoparticles, the purple of Cassius made of a colloid of elemental gold supported on tin dioxide.” </span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.333333333333332px; white-space: pre-wrap;">This week we learned about neuroscience and art, something that I find completely fascinating. Neuroscience is one of the most complex concepts to many, including myself. “The interaction between art and science offers an opportunity to make the scientific community and the public aware of the social and ethical implications of the scientific advances in neuroscience” (Anker and Frazzetto). One thing I very much appreciate is the ability for artists to translate what neuroscience is to people like me. They do this in a subtle yet beautiful way where they help us to understand the perplexity of our brain. </span></div>

This entire system of art demonstrates how beautiful and fascinating our brain really is. According to The Embodied Mind, one can associate biologically based properties with cognition only through behavior. </span></div>

Artists provide that prism for the public sphere and for scientists through the systems they use to better explain and advance their studies. Neuroculture is on a climb and comes with it’s perks. If you really think about it, our brains are so complicated and do things that we just can't explain nor can science explain. For instance, explaining how our brain works in autism, or how people have aneurysms, or even how emotions work. When I think about neuroscience, I am beyond fascinated with neurologists deal with and accomplish on a daily basis.

These past few weeks we have also been learning about the way that technology, science and art intertwine into the work of an artist. Both biology and technology have been a disputable concept to many. However, I believe it’s the turning point to a new innovative time, making our society more advanced, accessible, and at it’s highest advantage. Biotechnology is boistering where artists are teaming up with the world of science and biologists and bringing their work into laboratories to take a closer look on a cellular tissue level.

Others believed his ideas and thoughts were ludicrous and bizarre, and also coined an “eccentric artist”, but some were also fascinated. He in fact had the idea that genes and genomes can be a new art and vision for artists. From this, he moved forward to invent an info gene. All in all, he was an inspiration for other artists to follow in his footsteps in biotech and art. Ultimately, I don’t believe there should be any limits to human creativity. Unless it brings any physical harm, creativity should have no restriction, constraints, or limits. According to Joe Davis, when come to biotechnology it brings "changes on the horizon that are so dramatic and sweeping that all of the revolutions of the so-called digital age will shrink by comparison."</span></div>

Christopher Muscato says that in art, a medium is the material that artists use to create their art. It's that simple. Whatever a piece of art is made out of is its medium. The plural of medium is media. So, one piece of art can be made of one medium or several media. </span></div>

I would say that biotechnology is in fact evaluated differently than other technologies because technological innovations were revolutionary and turning points that in fact changed the world of art, science, and society. Here, we think of the invention of digital media or even the printing press. As Carolina A. Miranda says in her article, “ it’s natural that some artists spend as much time in the lab as they do in the studio. Over the last three decades, in fact, artists have cultivated human tissue, bred frogs, assembled DNA profiles, and used modified bacteria as electrical transmitters.

I’ve always seen pictures from fellow classmates or friends of the phenomenal views, especially the sunsets. However, I never actually had the chance to make it up there to experience it for myself. It was a beautiful, warm Wednesday morning and the beauty of the architecture struck me the second I pulled onto the lot. A short tram took us up the hill with beautiful scenery of green trees, and then dropped us off at the Getty Center location. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Getty is much more than a museum. It's also a research institute, conservation center and grant-making foundation. It's a must see! Scroll through to see some awesome pictures.</span></div>

Here, our tour instructor told us how this building revolves around conserving art. But they in fact go a step beyond that. They have the highest technology in conservation, its up an coming technology where University Professors come here to learn the technology then go to teach their classes. It’s conserving any antiquities, architectural finds, and structures.</span></div>

As much as I admired the view, one thing I really appreciated about the art and design of Richard Meier’s architecture for the Getty Center are the extraordinary tall walls and large windows, allowing for an array of natural light through the inside of the building. It’s incredibly angelic, probably the reason why I didn't capture a photo is because I was soaking it all in. It's a must see! </span></div>

Our tour instructor said that the ridge up the mountain is part of the Getty. The land was originally meant to be built on that ridge where the brick fire stops at the bottom patch. Richard Meier (architect) stood at that location and said that the ridge was too hard for him to build on. He looked across the way and saw a “V” form where he can built and envisioned a tram. He flattened them and built the Getty Center across. The walk we took to the end for the beautiful vista view is the gap, which in other words means he didn’t go out far when he built. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Throughout our lectures for this class, we learn about the different changes in our world, art, technology, and society that have evolved over time. The Getty Center is a fresh, modernized, and breath-taking experience where you in fact realize what is meant by the different types of architect that is unique to each place or design. Just as mentioned in lecture, th connection of science and art is through mathematics. We continue making math and art, art and science. When I thought about taking this tour, I thought about Brunelleschi in the sense how he trained in the principal of geometry and was credited with the first correct formulation of linear perspective and made the discovering a single vanishing point rule in 1314. All though we can't necessarily compare The Getty Center's architecture to that of Brunelleschi, but we can understand that there's a formula to everything and each artist, scientist, or architecture has a unique touch to all of their projects and designs. The Getty Center is full proof of that.</span></span></div>

Truthfully, The Getty Center has a powerful effect that in fact wow’d me with not just their architecture but even the ambience. It had a sense of peacefulness yet intelligence that squandered the site. The entire Getty Center has a sense of unity where, as a spectator, you feel that everything is connected somehow. So with that said, yes I would recommend visiting this site on many accounts. I hope my descriptions above as well as my pictures were as convincing as they seem. </span></div>

In fact, at some point, I wanted to be a radiologist and then an ultrasound technician. Medical technology has always struck me as fascinating in the way that we can literally use technology to see through someone’s body. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Medical technology an intrinsic part of society and, thus, do bring a different conceptualization of art to the forefront. As Professor Vesna mentions in lecture that medical technologies such as X-ray, MRI and CAT scan are all in fact forms of art in someway or another. MRI scans are also to be considered as a unique or different type of portrait in which it’s emphasis is on the inside of the human anatomy. In lecture, Professor Vesna also talks about how back then, medicine was in fact considered to be art because physicians who used tools or technology were not considered doctors. If we think about the medical world now, most doctors don’t consider chiropractors to be real doctors, but I believe that each medical field has its own uniqueness that is a work of both art and medical. Medicine is art in my eyes, regardless. It’s a miracle worker, something so extraordinary that saves lives and physicians and doctors are both artists and medical gurus. </span></div>

Even though most of the shows are fabricated and overly exaggerated, I’ve still learned a great deal about medical terminology than I did throughout my educational years. Not to mention, the drama incorporated into it made it fun to watch and learn at the same time. That’s what sparked my interest in joining the medical field, however, it has yet to work out that way as my dreams and career goals have changed since I was younger. That’s not to say that I still don’t find medical technology fascinating because I in fact very much do. </span></b><br />

She said that when people go to see a doctor it’s usually to fix them and most of the time the mood or attitude is not so uplifting because of an illness or injury. But with plastic surgery, you make people feel beautiful and give them something that honestly makes them feel great and happy. Understanding plastic surgery—and the performance of medical procedures in general—as a form of art also peaked my interest. Plastic surgeons reconstruct and mold parts of the body, they use the human body, like artists use a canvas.</span></div>

They analyze technological change in five conditions to determine if this is so. In four of the conditions—heart attacks, low-birthweight infants, depression, and cataracts—the estimated benefit of technological change is much greater than the cost. In the fifth condition, breast cancer, costs and benefits are about of equal magnitude. They concluded that medical spending as a whole is worth the increased cost of care. In my opinion, medical technology is incredibly necessary and has changed the medical world by a landslide, saving more and more lives every year with it’s advancements and improvements. </span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Industrialization changed society dramatically in the U.S where a prosperous middle-class developed, cities became crowded and workers lived in unhealthful conditions. The more factories that were built the more people moved to cities to find work. Industrialization and urbanization was aided by new technologies in transportation, architecture, and more. It provoked rapid growth in cities, rapid demographic change, and increased the gap between rich and poor. While society has reared towards reliance and dependence on technology and such things like the internet and “robotization”, I still believe that there are jobs available. However, these jobs are more “tech-savy” ones that essentially cut out a proportion of the population that could be eligible. To say it’s a serious problem might be a stretch, but there may be some truth saying that now, technology can perform a lot of tasks that were done by hand for centuries. </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Basically, making human work sometimes not as needed nor essential when technology can simply to do it in a much efficient timely manner.</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> As we saw throughout lecture videos, robotization, technology, and art are all fascinating, especially when they are all combined into one. As discussed in the lecture video, </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">we can't look at robotics without looking at industrialization. Artists have been working with robots since the early 19020’s. Sci-Fi visions now seem almost cane. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In addition, we can think of these changes in the sense of the transition from print to digital as sort of fast-forward replay on a multidimensional scale of what happened after Johannes Gutenberg invented printing by movable type over five hundred years ago. </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

During that time, cars were only meant for the wealthy. By developing an assembly line for workers he was able to pay them well enough to evolve into a middle class but it created a lot of problems because of taylorism coming into the culture. Workers were treated as part of the machine and it was a fast movement of mechanisation. Turning to Karel Chapek who coined the term robotics we hear about the mechanisation of workers and how workers are being replaced by machines. This is closer to what we would call a cyborg. </span></div>

Meanwhile, technology hasn’t made things any easier supply people with jobs since they are able to take care of work that companies won’t have to pay people to do. In order to fix this, I believe in finding a way to work in unity with people and technology rather than people versus technology. Although, technology can do work in a timely manner and sometimes more sufficiently than humans, people like human interaction and communication. The customer service is the traditional yet beneficial number one seller. </span></div>

Just as mentioned in lecture, the connection of science and art is through mathematics. We continue to move towards making math and art, art and science. Unlike many, I actually had amazing math and science teachers that initially made me love both subjects. The term de-geniuses by R. Buckminister Fuller comes to mind when he says that every person has an inner genius, but the education system tends to de-genius our perspective. Mathematics is a system of signals and the focus of irregular and regular shapes are similar to art. Mathematical formula might be used to draw shapes. Linda Dalrymple Henderson makes great points throughout her study about art techniques and science in relation to the theory of special and general relativity surfaced into the world of art, in which was influenced by the paradigm shift. </span></div>

If we divide that rectangle with a line drawn across her eyes, we get another golden rectangle, meaning that the proportion of her head length to her eyes is golden.</span></div>

The class was caught by surprise by the fractal sitting at the front of the room. </span></div>

While many can see that math, art and science are far off from each other, the perspective is much clearer after this weeks research. Math, industrialization, art and science are much closer than we think. We can think back Bill Nye the Science Guy, an American TV show where </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">he mixes the serious science of everyday things with fast-paced action and humor.

<tr style="height: 0px;"><td style="border: 0px solid rgb(0, 0, 0); padding: 3px; vertical-align: top;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"> The two cultures were coined by C.P. Snow as a signifier of his perspective between the separations of art and science. In 2009, New York Times wrote an article on C.P Snow stating, “Snow’s famous lament was that “the intellectual life of the whole of Western society is increasingly being split into two polar groups,” consisting of scientists on the one hand and literary scholars on the other. Snow largely blamed literary types for this “gulf of mutual incomprehension.” Snow believes that scientists do in fact have the answers to the entire future. People ignored science as a vocation, which prevents us from solving the world’s “main issue,” the wealth gap caused by industrialization, which threatens global stability.” I was born and raised in a small town and in 2014, I moved to the heart of entertainment, Los Angeles, California. Now, this may seem like an odd way to relate two cultures, but from my perspective, from a small town to an extremely overwhelming large city, I see two different worlds. I’m surrounded by different cultures everywhere I go, school, home, cities, church, even walking on the street. </span><br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> NY Times states, “Snow’s expression of this optimism is dated, yet his thoughts about progress are more relevant today than his cultural typologies.” This author in particular wants to see action done with C.P Snow’s work of the Two Cultures rather than just citing and referencing it. </span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> UCLA’s campus is the perfect example to explain this concept of “two cultures. Initially, our campus is split into two, north campus and south campus. While it is a very well known fact, there is much distinction that goes with each side.North campus are humanity majors like sociology, history, etc and South campus consists of science majors in which creates classifications and distinctions that I mentioned earlier. One thing that I’ve noticed is the different feel that you get from your surroundings and environment. I can walk to South campus and feel like it’s another world, while science majors can feel the same when they walk over to North campus. </span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> C.P. Snow remarks in his 1959 lecture, “Literature changes more slowly than science”. I guess I never really thought about the collision of art and science until this week started. However, Kevin Kelly says “For this current generation of Nintendo kids, their technology is their culture. When they reached the point (as every generation of youth does) of creating the current fads, the next funny thing happened: Nerds became cool.” This really made me think about how reared our generation is and how dependent and reliant we are on technology. I constantly hear my grandparents talk about how they remember when they were children how they didn’t even have TV’s and when they wanted to have fun they would play outside. Technology was basically non-existent during their time or at least it wasn’t as popular. </span></div>
