But science doesn t have beauty when the scientist doesn t realize his position in the grand scheme. For example, when scientists try to play the role of God through genetic engineering and cloning processes. Yes they are connected through beauty, which goes back to my definition. Both are a means of expressing oneself, I guess. Art in science.
Art challenges the reality of the world.
Science uses art as a stepping stone to see if it can be seen as reality. The ability to teach what you ve learned to others and to be content with yourself and your progress. Art is a mode of expression, a different venue to communicate, a tool to change opinions and thoughts. You can become people who are different from you and whom you ve never thought about, and walk in their shoes. It s very gratifying.
