These innovative commissions explore arts/ science collaborations and involve an artist collaborating with researchers from QM to explore and exploit their research in new ways. The pieces are then performed in public, toured, and reported widely (e.g. see New Scientist CultureLab, February 17, 2010). Academic articles are subsequently generated on the process and practice of arts/ science collaborations.
