Moving beyond transactional exchanges of expertise, artist Janani Balasubramanian and astrophysicist Natalie Gosnell draw on their own experiences, as well as stories from other art-science collaborators, to offer an imaginative guide for developing a values-based and joyful undisciplined practice. This playbook offers practical and conceptual tools for co-creation that foster new, powerful alliances among artists, scientists, and their supporters. While attentive to the everyday reality of busy schedules and institutional demands, Balasubramanian and Gosnell illuminate strategies to change our current ways of working and dare us to imagine a more expansive future. The projects, potentials, and possibilities resulting from undisciplined creation will reshape not only the practitioners but their worlds altogether. Janani Balasubramanian is an artist, director, and founder based at Stanford University. Natalie Gosnell is an astrophysicist, artist, and Associate Professor of Physics at Colorado College. Caleb Zakarin is CEO and Publisher of New Books Network. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/beyond-the-margins-the-university-of-california-press-podcast-7096692/episodes/janani-balasubramanian-and-natalie-gosnell-art-science-undisciplined-a-playbook-for-transformative-collaboration-u-california-press-2026/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/beyond-the-margins-the-university-of-california-press-podcast-7096692/janani-balasubramanian-and-natalie-gosnell-art-science-undisciplined-a-playbook-for-transformative-collaboration-u-california-press-2026.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
