Art is based on very clear, mathematical principles like proportion and harmony. At the same time, physicists need to be inventive, to have ideas, to have some fantasy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Art is elemental. Reason alone as it's expressed in the sciences can't be man's complete answer to reality, and it can't express everything that man can, wants to, and has to express. I think God built this into man. Art along with science is the highest gift God has given him.
Art is essentially communication. It doesn't exist in a vacuum. That's why people make art, so other people can relate to it.
The point is that the arts are important enough to have influenced the greatest minds and talents we know. Albert Einstein said that if he were not a physicist, he would probably be a musician.
There should always be something gratuitous about art, just as there seems to be, according to the new-wave cosmologists, something gratuitous about the universe.
I don't think we have reached a point where art really translates into science. Perhaps for some people, having good visuals can help translate into science.
It is art that makes life, makes interest, makes importance... and I know of no substitute whatever for the force and beauty of its process.
Art is what can't be proven mathematically, right, it's where science ends. It's the part that makes you feel good, but you don't know why.
It is art that makes life, makes interest, makes importance and I know of no substitute whatever for the force and beauty of its process.
Inspiration in Science may have to do with ideas, but not in Art. In art it is in the senses that are instinctively responsive to the medium of expression.
Art and science have so much in common - the process of trial and error, finding something new and innovative, and to experiment and succeed in a breakthrough.
