The past twenty years have seen a spike of the interest in art and science collaborations. Partly because of the resonance of the posthuman cyborg in the ontological turn; partly because of the rise of BioArt; perhaps because of the prominence that multidisciplinarity has acquired in academia; and surely in light of our fraught relationship with our environment and climate change, the intersections of art and science have recently become more complexly defined by new ethics, politics, aesthetics, and poetics.
