How can communication between fields change the way they are communicated individually?

Multimedia artist Charles ‘Trae’ Mason III and microbiologist and immunologist Alexandra Soare talk with me about the relationship between art and science, and how both fields still have a long way to go in their ability to communicate outside of themselves. We also discuss the necessity of a good mentor, and acknowledge those who changed and expanded the ways they work.

We also discuss the necessity of a good mentor, and acknowledge those who changed and expanded the ways they work.

Music in this episode was created for the conversation by Travis Woodson, a composer and multi-instrumentalist, as he was thinking about what an interaction between a painter and a microbiologist could sound like.
