Here’s a short list of Art & Science resources in the Bay Area.<\/div>\n
It is not comprehensive, and I will augment it as I go!<\/div>\n

In San Francisco<\/h3>\n
Grey Area<\/a> (2665 Mission Street) is a space dedicated to art and technology (lots of VR and visual art.) The Exploratorium<\/a> (Pier 15) has a lot of very neat experiments that do have an artistic component to them, while the\u00a0 Cal Academy of Science<\/a> (Golden Gate Park) sometimes run events based on art and technology.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
For 2018-2019, the French Embassy is assembling a series of events around arts and science called After Tomorrow<\/a>. There’s been events at the Cal Academy of Arts and Gray Area, but oftentimes they’re here to promote a French artist, rather than giving a systematic treatment of art and science.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
There’s also Leonardo\/ISAST<\/a> (International Society for Art, Science and Technology), which is based in the Bay Area and organizes event, such as the LASER<\/a> talks, The Convening<\/a> (for their 50th birthday.)<\/div>\n

At Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory<\/h3>\n
There is a large source of content at Berkeley Lab<\/a>, especially given it’s the host of national user facilities:<\/div>\n
the Advanced Light Source<\/a> (x-ray imaging), the Molecular Foundry<\/a> (electron microscopy), NERSC<\/a> (computer simulations) and\u00a0Joint Genome Institute<\/a> (biology), each with over 1000 users per year from all over the world, and a rich history<\/a> (including 12 Nobel Prize laureates<\/a>). Over the past year I’ve tried to consolidate the material available. Here is some things you can find online:<\/div>\n
