The Institute’s residency program »STEAM Imaging« allows artists, creative thinkers, and creators to engage in intensive exchange with Fraunhofer MEVIS scientists to examine jointly current methods, developments, and research results critically.
STEAM Imaging offers an experimental framework for artwork production and reflection on current research, focusing on education and science engagement. A key component of the program is the shared STEAM encounter in workshops and events with school students and, in STEAM Imaging IV, their friends & family. The art and research alliance enables prospective university students to approach scientific and technical topics from a new and unexpected perspective and encourages them to engage with science, technology, and art in a self-determined, creative way. In addition, the program allows researchers to reflect on the broader social dimensions of their work. The role of the artists and scientists within the residency range from consultant to co-creator to research partner to STEAM teacher.
