“…Una polifonía del mundo de la industria», un proyecto que propone una mirada artística al sector de la industria y trata de facilitar el nexo entre la universidad y la esfera pública. Los investigadores mostraron una gran confianza al dejarnos entrar en su entorno de investigación y de forma intuitiva vieron señalados en nuestro proyecto los aspectos no lógicos, dramáticos, humorísticos y poéticos de su propia tradición (Lopes, 2015). Su actitud durante todo el proceso fue la de explorar las lógicas asociativas que implica un proceso artístico y dejaron a nuestro criterio todas las decisiones sobre los elementos materiales expresivos, encuadres, tiempos y espacios.…”

Este artículo es una recensión de un proyecto expositivo en el que han colaborado artistas, científicos sociales y ciudadanos con el objetivo de abrir posibilidades, imaginar y extender el pensamiento hacia los procesos ambientales a gran escala. Partimos de un contexto local de declive de la industria del acero, de transición hacia una sociedad informatizada y de una Europa sumida en un conflicto energético y climático. Mediante el uso de testimonios orales y su dimensión sonora fue posible crear una representación artística de las identidades colectivas laborales, amplificar esas voces discordantes y crear una nueva narrativa del sector de la siderurgia. Esta experiencia interdisciplinar dio lugar a una reflexión en torno a las políticas del trabajo, las de los objetos materiales y la aportación de las prácticas artísticas al debate del Antropoceno. This article is a review of an exhibition project in which artists, social scientists and citizens have collaborated with the aim of opening possibilities, imagining and extending thought towards large-scale environmental processes. Starting from a local context of declining heavy industry, transition towards a computerized society, and an energetic and climatic conflict ravaging Europe. Through the use of oral testimonies and their sound dimension it was possible to create an artistic representation of collective labour identities, amplify those discordant voices and create a new narrative of the steel industry. This interdisciplinary experience was able to look as themes such as the politics of work, those of material objects and the contribution of artistic practices to the Anthropocene debate.

“…Recent work indicates that storytelling and narrative can help communicate science to non-experts within the wider context of framing as an important feature of public outreach (Martinez-Conde and Macknik, 2017). Furthermore, strategies fusing arts and science (e.g.…”

“…Therefore, science communication through art brings science to the public in ways that are engaging, instructive, artistic, and, always, content-driven (Schwartz, 2014). Examples of science and art projects include theatre as a way of communicating coastal risk (Brown et al, 2017), hiphop dance as a way of learning ecology (Wigfall, 2015), or art installations inspired in neuroscience laboratories (Lopes, 2015). Varelas et al (2010) observed that, while participating in a play representing STEM concepts, students engaged in understanding science from multiple perspectives.…”

Engaging children in geosciences through storytelling and creative dance

Abstract. Natural sciences have traditionally been disseminated in outreach activities as formal, one-way presentations. Nevertheless, innovative strategies are being increasingly developed using arts, gaming, and sketching, amongst others. This work aimed at testing an alternative and innovative way to engage non-expert audiences in ocean and coastal geology through a combination of scientific concept explanations and creative dancing. An informal education activity focusing on ocean dynamics was designed for 10-year-old students. It combines coastal science concepts (wind, waves, currents, and sand), storytelling techniques (narrative arc), and creative dance techniques (movement, imaginative play, and sensory engagement). A sequence of six exercises was proposed, starting with the generation of offshore ocean waves and ending with sediment transport on the beach during storm/fair-weather conditions. Scientific concepts were then translated into structured creative movements, within imaginary scenarios, and accompanied by sounds or music. The activity was performed six times with a total of 112 students. It was an inclusive activity given that all students in the class participated, including children with several mild types of cognitive and neurological impairment. The science and art activity aroused emotions of enjoyment and pleasure and allowed for effective communication between scientists and school community. Moreover, the results provide evidence of the activity's effectiveness in engaging children and developing their willingness to further participate in similar activities.
