Line 111:
* Turns up from time to time in [[Cthulhu Mythos]] stories, as when Robert Bloch's "The Sorcerer's Jewel" shows what happens when a crystal once used by mystics for fortune-telling is ground into a camera lens, and photos are taken through it.
* [[Mercedes Lackey]]'s ''[[Elemental Masters]]'' have elements of this. For example the lead of ''The Serpent's Shadow'', Dr. Maya Witherspoon, used her largely untrained healing perceptions to help determine the effectiveness of new medical concepts like electrical stimulation and antiseptic surgery; in addition to using her knowledge of anatomy and the actual progression of tuberculosis to efficiently cure it via magic.
* ''[[A Certain Magical Index]]'' has many combinations of science and magic. It's noted that magic doesn't have to use traditional materials, as modern-day objects will work if they have the same shape. One example is a magician who mass-produces rune cards using a printer, and laminates them for waterproofing. Another is {{spoiler|the entirety of Academy City, which functions as a temple for a magic ritual.}}
