Description/Abstract:

An unusual public event took place at the University for the Creative Arts (UCA) at Farnham on Wednesday 9 September 2009. Around 100 scientists, science students, artists and interested members of the public attended Jam!. This was a free evening event, with invited speakers, VJs, and opportunities to encounter artists and to socialise in a friendly informal atmosphere.

Supported by the University for the Creative Arts, the UCA Art Science & Culture Research Cluster and GaiaNova Productions, Jam! is part of this year's British Science Festival, hosted by the University of Surrey.

In a novel multimedia format, Jam! presented a dialogue between guest speakers Bronac Ferran and Tina Gonsalves. The evening was punctuated by 'sandpit' style round table discussions amongst the audience-participants, 'in conversation' events with interdisciplinary artists, ambient visuals and sound from guest VJs Philip Mayer and Pedro Zaz of GaiaNova Productions, and refreshments.
