My initial thoughts on “The Future of Science… Is Art?” by Jonah LehrerIs that this article is very powerful. He dives into a very scientific background and distributes information in a way that is very understanding. Lehrerls talked about the importance of art being incorporated into the sciences. Art is a gateway that allows creativity within science. Science backs up the art with logical thinking and exploring. Each topic belongs with each other as they strengthen what the other lacks. Lehrerls includes science based information about neuroscience and physicals to explain his reasoning. Using art can connect any miscues that are involved with scientific experimentation. Thinking outside of the box will encourage better scientific thinking and understanding.  Reading this article opened my eyes as to why arts need to be studied along side with science.

  1. Great! I loved this line, in particular: “Thinking outside of the box will encourage better scientific thinking and understanding. ” I could see you unpacking this in your paper.
