Abstract
Science Notes is a mesmerising magazine that showcases the work of visual artists exploring the interface between science and society; a magazine that excites our imagination about science through stunning illustrations and artful visual stories. In this interview with some of the key masterminds behind Science Notes – the Co-Founder Bernd Eberhard, the Art Director Sandra Teschow and the Editor-in-Chief Thomas Susanka – we unveil the artistic concept of the magazine. Tapping into the unique and creative genesis of the magazine as a whole – itself an imaginatively curated project – this article discusses the creative ‘reinvention’ of the format of each distinct periodical, which always profoundly and intuitively connects to that issue’s theme. Bernd Eberhart, Sandra Teschow and Thomas Susanka walk us through the design principles and aesthetic choices they make in order to communicate science in ways that bring the brighter and lighter(hearted) elements of science to the surface. Art and science collaborations, this article shows, are emblematic of science communication theory and practice that emphasise aesthetics and design as key to accessible engagement with science.
