Tesla

Tesla is an Art|Science Research Interest Group at the Department of Computer Science at University College London.

Our focus is on visionary ideas beyond the existing remits of art and science, and particularly on projects that incorporate and amalgamate both art and science into the new hybrid discipline of art|science. At present, our major activities are the Tesla Talks, and the Tesla Talks Archive.

We are happy for our material to be used for educational purposes, but we would ask you to kindly let us know if you do so, and to acknowledge the source. This helps us to justify our use of the university’s facilities.

Events

Tesla talks occur throughout the year at UCL. Most talks are held at the Garwood Lecture Theatre.
