CFP: 1st Art & Science Symposium: Models to Know Reality

1st ART & SCIENCE Symposium: MODELS TO KNOW REALITY
http://ikusix.lb.ehu.es/pags/simposium/index.htm#english

The objective of this symposium is to boost the education and
interdisciplinary investigation in the arts through the study of
holistic methodology and models that allow for a greater understanding
of the human being and their reality, and to promote the collaboration
between artists and scientists from different disciplines. It is
therefore a multidiscipline conference, with a transverse debate
forum, where the different models that the arts and sciences have been
devising for the study of the different aspects of reality will be
compared and discussed.
