"The University of Maine is excited to have the Slovenian Artists Collective 'BridA' on campus creating a unique artistic work that combines scientific data and methods, new media technology and aesthetic form," says Raphael DiLuzio, associate professor or new media and coordinator of the event. "As 'New Visualizers,' their focus is to creatively combine and convert methods, data and other aspects of science, art and technology into an engaging aesthetic visual art form."
