“When I was a physics major in the late 1970s, my very few fellow female students and I had high hopes that women would soon stand equal with men in science. But progress has proved slower than many of us imagined.” MenProgressStudentsEqualLateMajorsFemaleFellowsPhysics Author:Margaret Wertheim
“Seeing and playing with physical objects can enable access to symbolic ideas. When I studied physics and math at university it was all done through equations and textbooks whereas artists go to art school and start making stuff; they fling paint at the walls, they dance and bash things together with giant bits of metal. Our society has come to think of science as being a very abstractified thing, and art as being a materialized thing.” ThinkingArtDoneSchoolTogetherArtistWallPaintMathPhysicsMetalsFlingBash Author:Margaret Wertheim
