Rant
Memo to Lewis Wolpert: you’re a moron. “Science” isn’t a thing in and of itself, that it should be protected from the “pollution” of art. And it’s not as if there exist two discrete species of brain, one for artistic thought, one for scientific. The same mind produces both. To assert that a lowly painting can never illumine the way the world works (as science, presumably, can) is to miss the point entirely. The current impetus to reconcile artistic thought with scientific thought merely acknowledges that creativity has been analyzed out of science by narrow, utterly uncreative people like yourself, and we sure could use it back. But as long as the likes of you continue to have a stranglehold on knowledge we all will continue to suffer loss.
