  world to word
Introduction

 

This project began when I was approached by the Science Communication Group at Imperial College in London to take part in a research project funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Board, somewhat dryly titled, "Multimedia Representations of Science". The academic study of how science has been, is, and might in the future be represented - a field called simply, "Science Communication" - is a relatively new, interdisciplinary research area. It embraces history of science, sociology, philosophy, linguistics and a host of other established disciplines. Imperial College started the first post-graduate course in the subject about ten years ago and were interested to work with me, as a digital media artist, to see how their work might now be extended to take advantage of the opportunities afforded by the Internet.
