*Description of Event:*
Cultural Programs of the National Academy of Sciences (CPNAS) is partnering
with Leonardo, the International Society for the Arts, Sciences, and
Technology, to present D.C. Art Science Evening Rendezvous (DASER), a
monthly discussion forum on art and science projects in the national capital
region.  DASERs will provide the public with a snapshot of the cultural
environment of the region and will foster interdisciplinary networking.  The
monthly series will take place at the Keck Center, 500 Fifth St., N.W.
 Photo IDs and reservations are required for admittance.

Historically, the artist has communicated, educated, and preserved the ideas
of science.  But how is the work of scientists, engineers, physicians, and
experts from other disciplines informed by the creative processes of
artists?  How do artists use science and technology to advance the creative
and cultural discourse?  In the D.C. metropolitan area, practitioners from
many institutions, including universities, museums, and embassies, are
interested in the ways that various disciplines inform one another with
tangible results.

Each DASER will feature presentations by such practitioners along with time
for discussion and socializing.
