Moderated by Mark Papworth; 00:21 Gerald M. Feigen begins the discussion by asking what the dialect is between the artist and the scientist, what is different, what is mutual, and what is the future between them; 04:40 Feigen offers a solution to reconcile the two professions; 06:05 Audio skips and Papworth asks the panel if there are any comments on Feigen’s remarks; 06:14 Unidentified panelist states he thinks they should be talking about individual processes of art history and problem solving in science. The panelist continues to say that the arts and sciences have both benefited from each other; 08:30 Second unidentified panelist begins talking about the “ancient quarrel†and that art and science are different languages. The second panelist continues to mention that while the scientists promote technology, poets or artists “give light to the world†and are the ones that help others understand science and technology; 16:40 Buckminster Fuller begins talking; 17:00 Fuller talks about Werner Heisenberg’s experiments and the public perception of him; 19:50 Fuller talks about mathematician, George Boole and the preposterous things he would do; 21:38 Fuller talks about Picasso and his statement that “art is a lie.†Fuller compares Picasso’s actions with Boolean mathematics; 31:05 Roger Revelle is introduced. He expresses that, in his opinion, the artist and the scientist are the most closely related because they require the same qualities such as a “seeing-eye†and a creative imagination to find relationships between phenomena; 36:40 Revelle continues to state that there is a greater estrangement between art and science; 38:34 [George Boas] mentions that the scientists are killing the artists; 41:03 [Boas] asks “what kind of mind is attracted to science?†and states his objections to science while the artist still maintains his amateur status; 44:12 Papworth asks Dr. Feigen to make a concluding statement since he started the discussion. He tells the audience to experiment with both art and science and no one has to be either role; 48:05 Audience applauds panel.
