his study explores the potential of artistic methods in the dissemination of scientific information. The research questions considered are: How can artistic methods be utilized to offer fresh insights and agency and viewpoints for the dissemination of scientific information? In what ways can incorporating artistic elements enhance the emotional impact of scientific information? In what way does audience agency enhance the quality of scientific dissemination? The study aims to investigate the ways in which artistic methods can be used to communicate scientific information in a more engaging and effective manner, and how audience participation can further enhance the quality of scientific dissemination. The study will also explore the potential challenges and limitations of incorporating artistic elements into scientific communication. This study investigates the intersection between science and art using techniques such as role play, immersiveness, storytelling, and creative agency. The goal is to explore how the public interprets abstract data and unfamiliar knowledge fields, such as astrophysics and exoplanet research. Participants are challenged to question the validity of data and to understand the requirements for designing an ideal trajectory through a planet's atmosphere to reach its surface. The study also aims to determine if space research can provide a context for exploring new ways of critical thinking and self-reflection on a global and metalevel. This interdisciplinary approach aims to produce a body of work and gather data that blends scientific inquiry with artistic expression. Past interventions have happened at Blackbox Copenhagen and Bloom festival for a total of 3 interventions with around 20 participants each.
