During this informal event, we discussed how science can measure and interpret some simple mental states while we perceive an artwork and also how an artist can use these data for producing
them.
Is it possible to calculate the amount of emotions felt during
the observation and listening of artworks such as paintings, sculptures, books or music?
Is it conceivable for an artist to base his/her research
on experimental data and create new synergies?
Will these factors change our evaluation of beauty and the link between citizens and art fruition in the future?
