Unweaving the Rainbow

Unweaving the Rainbow

Kodwo Eshun investigates the growing field of sci-art collaborations, talking to funding bodies, scientists, artists and collaborators, examining the theory and practice behind this new frontier in arts practice.

The Arts Council has recently unveiled a raft of grants available to artists interested in working within scientific environments, in collaboration with scientific researchers. But CP Snow's 1959 definition of two isolated cultures suggests perhaps they are not the easiest bedfellows.

Contributors Include: Wayne McGregor, Dr Rosaleen McCarthy, Steve Wilson, Stanza, Jane Prophet, Lewis Wolpert, Siân Ede, Tim Marlowe, Jem Finer, Sarah Diamond, Marcus DuSautoy, Bronac Ferran, Hannah Redler, Gabby Campbell Johnson, Nick Tandavanitj, Ken Arnold, Sid Thomas, Heather Ackroyd, Dan Harvey, Pam Winfrey, Roger Malina, and Dr Tom Humphries.

Mixing It

26 August 2005

Mark Russell and Robert Sandall present a unique mix of musical styles and influences.

23:30

Jazz on 3

Markus Stockhausen

The first part of an ambitious new work by trumpeter and composer Markus Stockhausen. Commissioned specially by the BBC, the two-part work bridges the gap between jazz and contemporary classical music. Son of the famous composer Karlheinz Stockhausen, his own work is more lyrical and gentle, as exemplified on his acclaimed albums for the ECM record label.

For this concert, he is joined by Angelo Comisso on piano and Christian Thomé on drums. The second part of the commission will be aired tomorrow evening on BBC Radio 3's Hear and Now.

With Jez Nelson.
