Art and new technologies are becoming more and more connected together.Future of Art & Science Collaborations is a special module, which focuses on future of connecting these two fields, especially from theoretic point of view.

We are going to discuss the connection between Education, Art, Science and Finances, which is nearly a condition for successful existence and future collaboration. Within the panel we would like to speak about specific Czech environment, as well as the European strategy for the future horizons (even beyond 2020) and way of thinking about this topic.
