SCIENCE-ART: THE UNITY OF SCIENCE AND ART

Abstract

The article looks into the current and near-future challenges that necessitate a different lifestyle and way of thinking. The unity of science and art (Science-Art) is viewed in the context of these challenges as a way to respond to them. The article suggests building the unity of Science-Art upon the combination of the two science principles: economy of thought and redundancy of thought, which is typical for the artistic way of thinking. The article cites S. Pereslegin’s classification of thinking patterns and main features of scientific, artistic and engineering ways of thinking. The article shows impossibility of Science-Art within scientific monolectical thinking. It demonstrates that the condition for the unity of science and art is rising to dia- and trialectic levels of thinking; and the carriers of the Science-Art unity are currently engineers.
