Seeking papers and artworks on the intersections of chemistry, nanotechnology and art |
|
(Nanowerk News) 2011 is the International Year of Chemistry! To celebrate Leonardo is seeking to publish papers and artworks on the intersections of chemistry, nanotechnology and art for their on-going special section on nanotechnology and the arts.
|
|
Since its inception nanotechnology/science has been intimately connected to chemistry; fullerenes, nanoputians, molecular machines, nano-inorganics and self-assembling molecular systems all spring from the minds and labs of chemists, biochemists and chemical engineers. If you’re a nanotechnology-oriented chemist who is serious about art, an artist working on the molecular level, or a chemical educator exploring the mysteries of nanotechnology through the arts Leonardo is especially seeking submissions from you.

Leonardo articles already published or in press that explore the intersections of nanotech/science and art include: Nanoscale and Painting by artist Filipe Rocha da Silva, Fact and Fantasy in Nanotech Imagery by scientist David S. Goodsell, and Midas: A Nanotechnological Exploration of Touch by artist Paul Thomas.

Interested artists and authors are invited to send proposals, queries and/or manuscripts to the Leonardo editorial office at [email protected]. By post: Leonardo, 211 Sutter Street, Suite 501, San Francisco, CA 94108, U. S. A.
