Abstract

Much interesting information is at hand regarding the cooperation between the arts and the sciences. One domain may borrow an achievement or a technique from another. There is the use of photography for artistic purposes, even the use of microphotography, and even the use of microphotographs. And there is the scientific and technological employment of artistic achievements, not only of perspective and of psychological insights to diverse phenomena, but also of sensitivities that artists have discovered. Science and art inspire each other. The artist Beardsley has inspired the development of new techniques of photography. Acoustic innovations have suggested electronic music of all sorts.
