Leonardo Abstracts Service (LABS), consisting of the English-language
database,
Spanish-language database and Chinese-language database, is a
comprehensive collection
of Ph.D., Masters and MFA thesis abstracts on topics in the emerging
intersection
between art, science and technology. Individuals receiving advanced
degrees in
the arts (visual, sound, performance, text), computer sciences, the
sciences
and/or technology that in some way investigate philosophical,
historical or
critical applications of science or technology to the arts are invited
to
submit abstracts of their theses for consideration.<br>
