Tesla is an informal art and science discussion forum dealing with visionary ideas beyond the existing remits of art and science. It aims to form and nurture cross-disciplinary teams, projects, and networks, and to assist with applications for funding. Open equally to researchers at all stages of their careers, Tesla may be a particularly valuable resource and support for young researchers pursuing a cross-disciplinary trajectory. Tesla also welcomes artists (with or without academic affiliation), theorists and curators active in the field of art and science.

As new media art becomes more ubiquitous, it is crucial to see through
its trendiness to its epistemological and aesthetic implications.
Operating in the convergence between the arts, science and technology,
media art instigates a new set of cognitive phenomena and mandates new
practical and discursive agendas. With its strong multisensorial
effects, captivating and enthralling, it challenges the world of [read more...]

It is claimed today that the World Wide Web offers revolutionary models of scientific cooperation, which promise to instantiate a utopian democracy of knowledge.
