Keywords:Science and Art, Science, Art, Visual brainstorming, Earth Science

This research is an attempt to re-integrate science and art, which, despite sharing common origins, have become deeply divided in contemporary contexts. With the theme of earth science, a new method combining experiential visual brainstorming and comment mapping is employed to foster the fusion of scientific rigor and artistic expression.
In this presentation, we will showcase examples of works by earth science experts and artists, and each session participant will write their opinions and impressions on sticky notes from their own perspective.
We will also implement comment mapping using sticky notes at the JpGU venue. These sticky notes will be arranged on a poster and visually organized as comment mapping, revealing the relationships between opinions and the aggregation process. Through this method, we hope to create a space for dialogue where scientific analysis and artistic expression intersect, transcending conventional frameworks.
