This course explores art and science as human behavior from the cultural perspective, starting with some fundamental hypotheses and justifiable assumptions. Mental imagery is defined as the mental representation of sensory information without a direct external stimulus. After briefly examining the Eastern and Western history of art and science, the course applies the conjunctive theory of mental imagery to analyze its role in developing the transcultural elements of arts and sciences. Specifically, this course examines the effect of various cultures on mental imagery and its effect on the development of their arts and sciences. It is intended for the STEM and humanities students to learn how human mental imagery works and how it leads to progress in arts, mathematics, and sciences in different cultures.
