During this week we learned about how technology and industrialization has changed art over time. In “The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction” (1936) Walter Benjamin argues “the product of mechanical reproduction can be brought may not touch the actual work of art, vet the quality of its presence is always depreciated.” I agree with Benjamin that reproductions of art don’t received recognition for their fine work because they are not an original. Over time, industrialization with advancements in technology has allowed us to become a more dominant society. From the advancements of the steam engine in 1698 to now, robots or machines can do many of the jobs human being used to do. Technological  advancements can seen in various forms of art as well. The advancements have provided more access to art while expanding the field of art.  In the past, fine art was associated with high society but art can be appreciates by the masses. Like with other areas of business an

The English author and physicist Charles Percy Snow wrote the idea of “Two Cultures”, which debated the difference of literary and science intellectuals. This debate argued many voices between non-scientist and scientist. In Snow’s novel he states that when science was taking over literary intellectuals believed that literature was the leading subject. I believe that both non-scientist and scientist make arguments and counter-arguments about both sides in the world we live in today. Brockman, who wrote the novel “Third Culture”, described his ideas of technology about art and science. His ideas show that humans display us how we live between conversations, which relates to his main idea of art and science. These ideas of the two cultures relate to myself and to all of UCLA because we live in one of the most cultured cities in the world, Los Angeles. One of our most popular sports on campus basketball shows the art and science in every single play. The art is how each player

Week 6- Biotech and Art

Image
Going over this weeks information I learned about biotechnology and art and how they correlate with each other. Many artists have different interpretations of biotechnology based on work in the laboratories with tissues, different cellular levels and scientific imaging. The official definition of biotechnology is “ the exploitation of biological processes for industrial and other purposes, especially the genetic manipulation of microorganisms for the production of antibiotics, hormones.” Biotechnology  Audio Microscope I also learned about genomes and how their information is participates in our growth and development. Joe Davis is the pioneer of bioart and genomes. Davis designed the Audio Microscope, which shows living cells while simultaneously listening to their greatly amplified species and micro acoustic signatures. It also translated light information into sound allowing to hear living cells. Another name that stuck out to me was Kathy High, the a
