What if we could look at the sun with x-ray vision

About the SCIENCE.AM project

The SCIENCE.AM website is a project to document ongoing research into art and science. The goal is to investigate the strong similarity I see between scientists and artists. The hypothesis is that both ultimately search for truth and both see beauty in that truth.

This site began with a project called What if we could look at the sun with x-ray vision (contact x-ray plates on the Vulcan Target Area West vacuum chamber, 36 separate shots). The work was exhibited as part of the London Design Festival in September 2018 at London College of Communication. The website documents the thinking around that work and exists as a place to ferment further collaborations.
