Abstract: Abstract If a common ground exists between the artists and the scientists, that ground is explanation. Neither art’s appreciation of the uniqueness of occurrences nor science’s grasp of occurrences as mere instances of more general propositions is limited to explanation But central to both enterprises is an attempt to understand and explain why events occurred. The artist may appear (to the scientist) overly fascinated with nuance and randomness that would be better treated as extraneous fluff around common, recurring elements. The scientist may seem (to the artist) to ride roughshod over relevant, particular details in the quest for generality. (Graham Allison, 1971)
