	YLEM - Artists Using Science and Technology
	    announces their next forum:

		ART AND PHYSICS    

	Wednesday, January 6, 7:30 pm
	McBean Theatre, The Exploratorium
	3601 Lyon Street, San Francisco, CA
	Info: Trudy Reagan 415-856-9593

	YLEM Forums are free and open to the public.  YLEM is a 
	group of people interested in Art and Science.  Anyone 
	with an interest in Art and/or Science is welcome!
	Come and meet some like minded Artomata...  

	This is also a FREE NIGHT at the Exploratorium so come early 
	and enjoy the exhibits!

	THE PROGRAM:

		Leonard Shlain, MD
	
			Shlain talks on his book of the same name (Art and
			Physics), showing many examples that had to be 
			omitted from the book.  Later he will discuss the
			Origin of the Left Brain.  At intermission we will
			talk with artists staging an exhibit in the lobby -
			artists whose work ties in with the lectures.

			The thesis of Leonard Shlain's book, Art and Physics,
			is unusual:

			   Art interprets the visual world, physics charts 
			   its workings - and so the two seem completely
			   opposed.  But in this brilliant piece of cultural
			   detective work, Shlain tracks their breakthroughs
			   side by side throughout history to reveal an 
			   astonishing coincidence of visions.

			   From classical Greek sculptors to Andy Warhol and 
			   Jasper Johns, and from Aristotle to Einstein, 
			   artists foreshadow the discoveries of scientists, 
			   sometimes by more than a century.
