The Leonardo Journal (MIT) recently featured discussion on nanotechnology, nanoscale science and art. Over the next 5 years they will continue to publish special sections that explore art and nanotechnolgy as a way of exploring the art/science connection and encouraging artists’ interest in a field where opinion is perhaps dominated by scientists and engineers.
I find this exicting and heartening as one of my interests is how 
to communicate nanotechnology. Art is a special medium for conceptualising and explaining nanotechnologies and NanoVic already has a website topic on art and nano as part of our efforts on raising public awareness. This page also features work by our graphic designer, Mark Seggie including this dendrimer image.
Artists and authors who are interested in the Leonardo project are invited to send proposals, queries and/or manuscripts to the Leonardo editorial office. We at NanoVic would also be interested in discovering nano art projects or proposals in Australia.
