Conversation: Creative Enquiry with Peter J. Evans and Dr David Jones Thursday 1 October 2015, 18.00-19.30 BALTIC’s Project Space at BALTIC 39, Newcastle upon Tyne
Why and how we as a species practice and follow creative endeavours has and remains an intriguing question. Creative enquiry itself is the starting point for a conversation between artist Peter J. Evans and the scientist, inventor and thinker Dr David Jones in which ideas of authorship, the path of an idea and ways of thinking will be discussed.
A non-conformist of the science word, Jones is known for his columns in scientific journals beginning in the 60s. In his latest book, “The Aha! Moment” (Johns Hopkins University Press), he speculates as to possible subconscious processes which find solutions to problems and addresses the troubles of turning them into practical products.
This is the first in a series of events that relate to Peter J. Evans' exhibition, Across islands, divides, in BALTIC's project space at BALTIC 39 until 13 December 2015. |
