微生物学领域为艺术合作提供了独特的机会和随之而来的挑战。一方面,艺术作品使人们能够探索生物医学科学和新技术中的美学和问题,并吸引新的非科学受众。另一方面,用微生物创作艺术需要严格考虑健康和安全。在这个领域工作的艺术家,也就是众所周知的生物艺术,往往想要突破可能或已知的界限,并在新的生物医学工具问世时进行工作。然而,当一位艺术家提出的作品提出了新的问题,其中的风险还没有被完全理解时,谁应该决定是否收益大于结果?一位与艺术合作的科学家的思考是相关的。此外,还考虑到各学科之间密切的工作关系如何能够使新的伦理框架考虑这些决定,尊重艺术家的努力本身就是一种有益的研究形式,甚至向艺术家的丰富视角学习,以扩大对科学实践的思考。讨论了科学/艺术合作的经验,以及由此产生的伦理问题,以及如何以新的跨学科方法解决这些问题。
The field of microbiology presents unique opportunities, and accompanying challenges, for artistic collaborations. On one hand, artistic works enable exploration of the aesthetics and of issues in biomedical science and new technologies, and draw in new, non-scientific audiences. On the other hand, creating art with microbes requires rigorous consideration of health and safety. Artists working in this field, known as Bio Art, tend to want to push the boundaries of what is possible or ‘known’, and work with new biomedical tools as they become available. However, when an artist's proposed work is raising novel questions where the risks are not fully understood, who should decide if the benefits outweigh the consequences? The reflections of an art-collaborating scientist are related. Also, considered is how close working relationships between disciplines can enable new ethical frameworks that consider these decisions, respecting artists’ endeavours as a beneficial form of research in its own right, and even learning from the rich perspectives of artists to broaden reflections on the practice of science. An experience of science/art collaboration is discussed, together with the ethical issues that arise, and how they can be addressed in novel trans-disciplinary methods.
