“Science is a tool to think with, just like art…” This publication contains transcriptions of conversations between the artist Alexandra Hunts and Charles M. Marcus, professor in Condensed Matter Physics at the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen. Roland Barthes famously wrote: “Interdisciplinarity consists in creating a new object that belongs to no one.” This epistemological homelessness echoes through both Hunts’ and Marcus’s immigrant condition, and the histories of 20th-century art and science.
