Plasma Arts and Sciences
Pass on scientific information while making links with contemporary artistic creation.
What are the links between the arts and plasma physics? What unites artists and physicists? Are there common creative processes? What educational tools should be considered to highlight these convergences?
School audiences, students, teachers and future teachers, but also researchers and artists have found among the outreach actions of the Plasma Arts and Sciences Program: an experience of ionized matter, a path adapted to better understand and appreciate the multiple interactions between arts and plasmas.
Both original and innovative, the project plunged a diverse audience into the heart of a major transdisciplinary reflection. A 2017-2018 collaboration between Labex PLAS@PAR and the Center Pompidou.
