Mumbai: ‘The most interesting things today occur at the limits of traditional branches of science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and art.’ Building this idea, Homi Bhabha Center of Science Education (HBCSE), National Center for Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, has launched an online series called Steamboat.
This initiative is intended to integrate art with stems (science, technology, techniques, mathematics), to promote creative and critical thinking and to recognize the interdisciplinary nature of this subject.
“Globally, there is an increase in emphasis on looking at the trunk with art.
Good art and science, however, is a creative effort.
You are exploring the creativity of the human mind, whether it is done through music, painting or dance form or through science and experiments.
In the world when This, you need skills from both parties, “said Arnab Bhattacharya, Director of the Center, HBCSE.
While the concept of steam becomes popular in the West, in India has not yet pursued, he said.
“The idea is to break the artificial barriers we have between ‘fear’ and the subject ‘arty’,” he added.
Steamboat will consist of talks, animated videos in various languages, exploring science, technology, engineering, art, mathematics, and their intersections.
The first talk on November 14th on the ‘Super Silk Super Superb’ delivered by Suravi Kalita was excavated into the Spiderman film, until the biology of how it worked, to the silk property of the spider to the artwork that made people use it.
It also saw the possibility of artificially engineering different creatures to make the same molecule in silk spiders and use it in textiles.
“Beyond the talks only see aspects of pure science,” Bhattacharya said.
In the pipe is a conversation that will explore artistic patterns in a magical box and also hidden science behind Crow Crow’s fairy tales.

Talks will be scheduled for the second Sunday every month and topics will be chosen by the HBCSE community.
It can range from environmental problems to design to standard science and mathematics education.
The team will also make videos shorter in various languages, starting with Hindi and Marathi in the early days.
Details of this session and video will be available at steamboat.hbcse.tifr.res.in.
