A scientist's search for the meanings of art, we all learn from mistakes. Interdisciplinarity harmonizes links between disciplines into a coherent whole. We will continue to do everything we can until these questions are answered. Artworks evoke an enigmatic, almost magical quality, transforming everyday objects and scenes into symbols with new meanings. Be consistent: Once you start, don't stop.
The old art defends itself from modern primitive artists by suggesting that there is neither aesthetics nor psychosocial need for it. We become scientists because we are curious.
Donald Kuspit
Crossing the line between art and science where permeability takes shape, and connections are reinvented, creating new scenarios.
Every artist draws what he is, like self portraits, and every scientist represents himself as a bibliography.
Two cultures integrative thinking.
The problem is that art is not a phase transition whereby a canvas or a drawing paper stops being ordinary and becomes terrible in an instant.
Science and humor gave humanity the power over matter, there is only make.
In statistics, latent variables are variables that are not directly observed but are rather inferred from other variables that are observed. Mathematical models that aim to explain observed variables in terms of latent variables are called latent variable models.
As a psychologist (Danny Kahneman) you would know that if it demands complicated mathematical transformation, something is going wrong.
Like artists engaging with scientific methods, Paul Dirac was obsessed with mathematical beauty. Paul Dirac most often would generally disregard equations unless they had a certain elegance about them. In Pascal's view, the human condition and the futile nature of life is characterized by inconstancy, boredom, and anxiety.
Often great discoveries are made when techniques from one discipline are tried in another. Making art don't always square with reality, give yourself credit for what you accomplish each day. Distancing yourself from your thoughts is also useful.
Is life an illusion, given that only few possibilities are to be calculated? A comprehensible proof is not necessarily the shortest one, but a proof of small width. Hybrid science+art pictures may be accompanied by an explanatory legend that helps the visitor decode the underlying science, if needed.

Go deep on things. Become an expert. Get obsessed with a topic. Because science world condemns people from the unexpected math caste to an invisible existence, their lives often go unnoticed.
The whole publish or perish ideology is teaching people the wrong skills on imaginary problems, so I gave on reading on academic papers years ago because the amount of noise to signal was intolerable.
I was looking into some actual numbers of how many papers releasing some 'new' scientific software are actually gets cited and the numbers are simply depressing. In 25k papers in bioinformatics, genomics, genetics during 10 years over 60% is never cited and majority of papers is cited less that 3 times. And I am not talking about code maintenance - it's really a catastrophic situation. Anyways, going to get some of the graphics/numbers published for people to have a feel.
