</b><br>
Force/Magnitudes Nanotechnology Workshop is a hands-on workshop at the Curtin University Department of Chemistry Scanning Probe Microscopy Facility. A collaboration between the Nanochemistry Research Institute and the Centre for Research in Art, Science and Humanity, it aims to introduce artists and scientists to the visual technology of nano including the Atomic Force Microscope. The workshop will investigate the nano world, exploring the limits of our understanding of the physical world and of what nano futures may hold.<br>
<br>Run in conjunction with the John Curtin Gallery <i>art in the age of nanotechnology</i> exhibition (<a href="http://johncurtingallery.curtin.edu.au/exhibitions/future.cfm">http://johncurtingallery.curtin.edu.au/exhibitions/future.cfm</a>) and the <i>strange futures: collaborations that make nano-art</i> symposium (<a href="http://crash.curtin.edu.au/program/index.cfm#strangefutures">http://crash.curtin.edu.au/program/index.cfm#strangefutures</a>), participants will get to scan their own (previously prepared) sample. Some possible materials include glass, hair, crystals, salts, diamonds, paper or smooth metal surfaces, some powders and flat organic matter (leaves, parts of insects) or paint on a smooth surface. You are encouraged to discuss what you want to scan beforehand.<br>
<br>
The workshop is open to artists and scientists. The workshop costs $150 and, because of the size of the facility, is limited to 8 people.
