Charissa N. Terranova, professor of visual and performing arts, has published a new book — an anthology titled D’Arcy Wentworth Thompson’s Generative Influences in Art, Design, and Architecture: From Forces to Forms. The book was coedited by Terranova and Ellen K. Levy. Essays in the book focus on Scottish zoologist D’Arcy Wentworth Thompson’s 1917 book On Growth and Form, a tome that has inspired artists, architects, and scientists alike. Thompson’s visionary ideas continue to evolve a century after its publication, aligning it with current developments in art and science. Contributors explore how translations are made from the discipline of biology to the cultural arena, reflecting on how Thompson’s study relates to the current sciences of epigenesis, self-organization, biological complex systems, and the expanded evolutionary synthesis.
