Mission : In-depth team explorations of a concept which fuses the energies of both art and science communities and researches and showcases the creative process.

From Blank page to Eureka moment to Implementation projects should include demonstrations of implications and show how results could be leveraged. We hope to create a bond between the Artistic and the Scientific Communities by producing collaborative events, lesson plans and by cross promoting activities that reflect our mission.
