Dr. Aisen Caro Chacin speaks on technological devices that carry practical uses for new perceptual abilities. Dr. Chacin was moved by the neuroscientist Paul Bach-y-Rita who argued that the human sensory perception is perceived not through our eyes but our brain (Bach-y-Rita et al.). She was inspired by Daniel Kish, who is blind but can ride a bike. Hence, Dr. Chacin developed the sensory substitution device called the PopMatrix, which allows the individual to perceive an image on the tip of the tongue, which is the most sensitive area, through the feeling of some electrodes on and off. There is sensory substitution in which our brains translate tactile information into visual knowledge (Schneider).  Screenshot from Dr. Aisen Caro Chacin, BioArt + Assistive Device Art Dr. Chacin produced the Play-A-Grill allowing listening to music through our teeth. This device develops a new interactive portal to perceive sound with our teeth through bone conduction. These new models are products...

As we consider the medical technologies we see today, we can examine their artistic values and the scientific information it produces on treatment and diagnosis. For example, Emily Watson was inspired by anatomy to create stone-like jewelry. She uses common technological materials such as copper, silver, and other elements (Watson). Watson’s jewelry pieces highlight the anatomy of the human body, such as legs on a sterling, copper, and enamel necklace. The anatomical knowledge of these jewelry pieces is vital for medicine. It is part of the medical diagnosis formation in helping support the patient's examination, and medical professionals communicate with their patients (Turney).  Watson, Emily.

According to Walter Benjamin, artwork in modern society is influenced by new modes of technological products like film and photography. Our society responds to these mechanical processes and industrialization by developing more art productions. The beginning of the assembly line was the Printing Press (Vesna). The Printing Press was a mechanical reproduction of art designs affecting the aesthetics of modern art by making it possible for mass production of various artworks in the print media. Hence, the middle class had access to art paintings. The Printing Press “made it easier to circulate pictures” as lithography and photography changed that only privileged galleries could access these artworks (Roberts).

Japanese engineers were interested in creating huma...

Mathematics and art are intertwined as they significantly influence each other. Mathematics is particularly relevant in our daily lives, primarily in the lives of many artists, as it helps them with the foundation of their products. In 1413, Brunelleschi with his understanding of geometry he understood that a single vanishing point to which all parallel lines in a plane converge (Vesna 11:18).  "Art Mirrors Art." Art Mirrors Art , 2022, https://art-mirrors-art.tumblr.com/post/35197774617/filippo-brunelleschis-re-discovery-of-the .  Many of the paintings in museums are designed from a one-point perspective, such as this painting of Antwerp Cathedral has a one-point perspective with the “viewpoint directly in front of the main vanishing point” (Frantz 37). Hence, artists provide viewers an artwork in a different light with a detailed and depth-like image. Also, chemistry like kinetic movement principles influence many architectural works for public spaces (Huttinger). Moreover,...
