@Caltech: Art, Science and Technology, 1969-1971

In 1969, the vision of a handful of professors at California Institute of Technology resulted in an initiative to bring artists and scientists together to see what happens. The experiment embodied insurgent notions of that eraideas that would once again become manifest a generation later in the young 21st century's art-science fusion. Out of this venture came hints of new visual vocabularies and ways of making, as well as an awareness of fault lines between the two cultures. To one young student who found his way into it, the Caltech experience became a transforming moment.
