This Is Transdisciplinary Thinking ~how science and art can live together~
Details
Why do we have to choose only one major or subject and choose only one expertise? In the age of the Renaissance, art, science, and technology were connected that it was natural to think and research beyond realms, disciplines, and genres. A lot of research has proven that transdisciplinary thinking could be one of the key elements of innovative and creative ideas. So. we need to get the renaissance way of thinking. In this event, Angelo Vermeulen, a space system researcher, biologist, and artist will share with us what is transdisciplinary thinking and how he has applied it to his life.
