เหลู้าบ - LLL CoLaboratory (Laab Lu Lao)
A do-it-with-others Art&Science CoLaboratory
A Night-Market of Ideas and Interactions
A Gathering of Enthusiastic People to Share and Experiment Together
Overview
17. - 21. Jan 2567 (2024)
LLL CoLaboratory (เหลู้าบ แลบ) is a "do-it-with-others" Art & Science open laboratory. Our goal is to gather the enthusiastic people and work on various multidisciplinary and speculative projects. We organize a 5-days "OPEN LAB" session for everyone to access. We are providing a space for share equipment, material, consulting, workshop and opensource for learning and working on projects. There will be workshops from the organizer. However, there also a flexible session for participant to decide. The session has no limit to creativity - let's see how the opensource community bring us to the next level of imagination.
LLL stands for Laab-Lu-Lao, which directly refers to Laab (Thai minced meat with spice - usually raw), Lu (Meat with raw blood), and Lao (Alcohol). These three are known for the party night of the local culture. Laab-Lu-Lao is also a literary meme since the past. เหลู้าบ is a wordplay by combining the three words together - Laab (ลาบ), Lu (หลู้), and Lao (เหล้า). The term เหลู้าบ is not possible to pronounce. There is evidence that shows that this type of wordplay existed in ancient Lanna language.
LLL CoLaboratory (เหลู้าบ แลบ) คืองานที่จะชวนทุกคนมาทดลองร่วมกันในธีม ศิลปะ และวิทยาศาสตร์ ทั้งการเล่นกับนาโนเทคโนโลยีในชีวิตประจำวัน การตัดต่อพันธุกรรมด้วยอุปกรณ์บ้าน และการหมักดองจากจุลชีพ เป้าหมายของเราคือการรวมกลุ่มผู้คนที่สนใจในการทำงานแบบสหสาขา และการทำโปรเจคที่สำรวจอนาคตของเรา กิจกรรมนี้จะมีขึ้น 5 วัน ที่เราจะได้มาใช้ห้องทดลองเปิดด้วยกัน เราจะมีอุปกรณ์ และองค์ความรู้จาก opensource เพื่อให้ทุกคนได้มาทำงานร่วมกัน เราจะมีทั้งกิจกรรมที่เราจัดขึ้นทั้ง เวิร์คชอปหรือการฉายภาพยนต์ และมีส่วนที่เปิดให้ผู้ร่วมได้ร่วมตัดสินใจร่วมกัน
Themes
In this event, we have these themes as a starter. The participant also can suggest the new theme. Apart from these themes, we provide the basic of microelectronic and DIY biology. There will be PCB and microcontroller for making some equipment, basic biology tools, microscope (DIY & commercial one), and a lots of blinkling LED!
Nanoudini
Unveil the magic of Nanotechnology for everyone to experiment everywhere. We will make some nanoparticle and come up with new applications in the local such as making gold nanoparticle (AuNP) from the temple's gold leaf (ทองคำเปลว).
We collected some notes in this pad: https://mega.hackteria.org/index.php/s/iJMLqYDG2JykntP
The (literally) Life Hacking
We will literally 'hack a life' through DIY genome editing. Starting with DNA extraction from household chemical supply. We will try genetic engineering process - see all the protocol and equipment from starting to the delivery of gene in the organism.
Dark rooms for homo-lumidetectus
We will be building and experiment with self-made cameras for new sensory experiences. Using pin-hole "camera obscura" methods, photoactive materials and various wearable observation gowns, we will explore the worlds around us during field-trips.
Microbe chef table
THE classic topic of biohacking, fermentation has been with human almost since the starting and it's in every culture. Sharing about fermentation is already a cultural

Laser Science Department (LSD)
Laser is cool. With love of Rave and light saber, we will learn to play with laser together. in terms of the lighting aesthetics and their quantum properties, we can synthesize nanoparticle, brew coffee, cooking tardigrade with the laser.
Tradition Punk
Let's connect these ghetto science & art in the context of local tradition. Creating a little taboo and bringing the local tradition into next conversation. Here is what we can do: PCB Amulet, laser candle dance, or Lab-on-a-Bungfai (DIY rocket - บั้งไฟ).
Open Hardware in LABS (Love, Art, Business and Science)

Schedule
Join us for workshops, screenings, discussion panels, and a showcase, creating an enriching experience for all.
Welcome to our dynamic schedule, a fusion of collaborative research and public-facing events. We introduce each others during "The Starter", a kind of innoculation event where we mix and match our interests and start fermenting them from Wednesday onwards. Thursday will bring forth "The Hunt," a thrilling journey of discovery, exploring different sites of interests, field research, microbe hunting and sourcing of materials. Friday is dedicated to "The Kitchen," a space for culinary adventures and creativity, sharing of recipes and public panel discussions. Saturday unfolds with "The Table," offering a setting for shared stories, public workshops and delightful moments. We conclude the week at "The Market / Pasar" on Sunday, where a diverse array of treasures, prototypes and performances awaiting exploration. Our schedule is not just a series of events; it's a mix of collaborative research and public engagement.

Homo Illuminus
Humans, unlike many organisms in nature, do not possess the ability to produce observable light. Imagine a world where humans have evolved or been genetically modified to exhibit bioluminescence. What if we could flash light like fireflies, angler fish, or bioluminescent plankton? This speculative workshop invites participants to explore the concept of "Homo Illuminus" – humans with the ability to glow. This will be a Hacking/Performance Art workshop. We will program LED devices, observe how they function on our bodies, and then engage in a performance to explore the possibilities of our new and blinky feature.

HackteriaLab 2014 - Yogyakarta
Watch the full movie / documentary: "SENI GOTONG ROYONG: HackteriaLab 2014 - Yogyakarta"
Citizen science has long contributed to the health of local communities by making people aware of their environment in the form of oral histories and traditional wisdom. Recently, international open source and maker movements have been actively engaging with the life sciences to focus on the environment. This brought a revival of the tradional knowledge as well as an opportunity for innovation and a model for public participation in science. These activities are becoming influential policy forces changing how we produce and share knowledge as an iterative and collective process. Yogyakarta, Indonesia, has been one of the most active hubs in this movement.
HackteriaLab 2014 – Yogyakarta was held in April 2014 as a two-weeks making-oriented gathering of researchers, artists, scientists, academicians, hackers and whatevers in Yogyakarta. It expanded on ideas and methodologies about BioArt, DIY biology, DIWO (Do-It-With-Others), appropriate technology, art and science, and biohacking, developed during the previous versions of HLab10 - Dock18, HLab11 - Romainmotier both in Switzerland and HLab13 - Bangalore, India. HLab14 was hosted by LIFEPATCH - citizen initiative in art, science and technology and co-organized together with HACKTERIA | Open Source Biological Art in collaboration with various regional partners.
This book tried to assemble a collection of essays written by the participants, asked to reflect on their own experiences, individually or collectively, which only gives a glimpse into all the projects and exchanges that happend during HLab14. With a short overview of the programme and activities, selected photo impressions and the exhibition manual the book is rounded up and can be an entry point to explore further our online resources and serve as an inspiration for transdisciplinary collaborative practices.
