There are many stories to my passion for ants...the one with the ant lover is X-rated and I don't share it that easily ;)<br />
<br />
When I confronted for the first time the army ants [Eciton burchelli >> http://vimeo.com/19707831] in the ecuadorian rainforest...about eleven years ago, I got a neuronal adrenalin shot...after being stung by soldiers, that crystallized memories of a past life...as an ant. If this sounds far fetched to you...well that is what my colony of neurons is making me remember^^ <br />
<br />
Under the influence of the army ant syndrome I started to connect media theories with scientific knowledge and audiovisual practices together...on a DIY basis...to explore the social relations and differences between humans and ants...I find four key approaches to be the essential: cybernetics, autopoiesis, self-organization, and emergence. I believe we can break the political and religious patriarchy by nurturing the formation of bottom-up organisms, inspired by the successful art of nature and an artistic application of self-organization based on ants. Thus, open networks for ideas and cultural interaction between living beings can emerge that can balance the artificial and the natural world in ways that cannot be predicted but experienced, evoking new forms of artistic expression, cultural symbiosis [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biophilia_hypothesis] and community-based design...which is what we will be doing.<br />
<br />
My experience and knowledge about ants is humble...as you need a whole lifetime to get to really know them...<br />

As a sound artist, I have been collecting field recordings with portable recorders over years in Australia, Taiwan, Europe, southern islands of Japan, northern-west of China and east Turkey, those soundings of nature phenomenons and human activities, or an emerging moment of small talk. Slowly I built a personal archive of sonic observations; with intensions or without. While most of artistic activity focus on listening and generative composition, as well, I am co-organising series of PlayAround workshop in Taiwan, an intensely parallel and collaborative workshop of mediating the creative use of FLOSS (Free/Libre Open Source Software) and DIY practices to an audience of young students and artists of diverse backgrounds, promoting sharism. It combines the knowledge creation and open distribution of new media technologies and contemporary art practices in a socially responsible and relevant context.<br />

'''How to detect microplastic in soil:''' <br />
<br><br />
Definition: Diameter >5 mm (macroplastiques), < 1 mm (microplastic), <300 μm (small microplastic)<br><br />
<br><br />
To seperate plastic particles form soil, stones and other materials the density method can be used. To set the density, salt or sugar can be used.<br><br />
[[File:SpecificGravityofPlastics.png|300px]]<br><br />
[[File:SaltConectrationDensitiy.png|200px]][[File:SugarConcentrationDensity.png|200px]]<br />
<br><br />
Add 320 g NaCl per litre of water to get a density of 1.2 at 25°C<br><br />
<br><br />
To verified if the particles are plastic using a hot needle point, which leaves a mark on plastic debris.<br><br />
Plastic fibers can be distinguished from natural fiber by looking at the end of the fiber. While natural fibers are usually frayed at the end, plastic fibers are often not.<br><br />
<br><br />
To remove organic material, 30% hydrogen peroxide can be used to digest the organic materials.<br><br />
<br><br />
Most microplastics are made from PP, PE, PS<br><br />

[[Circular Chromatography]] is a chemical method to create soil testing through a photographic process. It is a DIY-method, cheap and available and is used amongst biodynamic farmers to visualize the vitality of soils. The Circular Chromatogrpahy method creates drawings which can be visually interpreted as paintings, and by comparison. The workshop intends to shift attention from a quantitative modality to a quality of seeing and thinking.<br />
<br />
Together with Emanuela Ascari from Croma-Lab we develop during a two days workshop our own soil chromatographies which then can be interpreted by visual comparison in the group. To participate please bring along a sample of soil from your interest (urban garden, commodified soil, polluted soil, farmland soil, home garden soil). Seats available up to 8 participants.<br />
<br />
Collecting instructions: the earth has to be taken from about 20-25 cm below the surface, in the quantity of<br />
at least one handful, and to be dried not in the sun. It has to be completely dried.<br />
<br />

'''mikroBIOMIK Soil Microscopy Workshop'''<br clear=all><br />
with Julian Chollet and Josephine Blersch<br />
26th September, 12-15h<br />
<br />
<br />
Far more than just the dirt under our feet, soil is a truly complex and dynamic ecosystem. It is a constantly changing mix of minerals, living organisms, decaying organic matter, air and water. It is the living skin of our planet, allowing new forms of life to come into being, incorporating the nutrients left there by organisms of the past.<br />
Soil is bursting with life and can be vastly different from one square cm to the next. From plants, earthworms, insects and fungi to the invisible amoeba, nematodes, algae and bacteria – each creature provides their own essential role in the soil ecosystem.<br />
<br />
This workshop is about playful learning, curiosity driven research, muddy hands and the exploration of a miniature universe. We will go out to collect samples, learn how to prepare them and use microscopes to dive into the world of those marvelous creatures. <br />
<br />
Just bring your own sample (if you want), curiosity and at least 2 hours of your precious time… <br />

'''Fermenting Speculative Food (Hi)stories''' <br clear=all><br />
hands-on fermentation & speculative fiction workshop<br clear=all><br />
with Marketa Dolejšová and Maya Minder<br />
<br />
one day workshop<br />
29th September, 10-18h<br />
<br clear=all><br />
<br />
[[File:Marketa_Fermenting Speculative Food (Hi)stories .jpg|400px]]<br />
<br clear=all><br />
<br />
<br />
The workshop Fermenting Speculative Food Histories invites you to experiment with various hands-on fermentation techniques and make your own jars with microbial delicacies like kombucha and kefir. Workshop initiators Maya and Marketa will share methods, ideas, grains, and scobies that they gathered during their fermented trips around South-East Asia, Switzerland, Central Bohemia, Tasmania and Indonesia. Understanding fermentation as an intrinsically speculative act, we will complement the hands-on workshop with collaborative crafting of fictional food stories. Using techniques drawn from speculative and critical design, we will explore the diverse and uncertain histories of the age-old fermentation tradition and extend them with our own speculative interpretations.<br />
<br />
In the Caucasus people say that kefir was first made by Gods who ejaculated into the milk. Chinese rice wine makers prevent their wine jars to come in contact with menstruating women. The blood, they believe, is too disturbing for the yeast. Many Bohemian fermenters talk nicely to their bubbling jars to help the ferments grow. But what if all that isn’t exactly true? What if rice wine yeast actually loves blood? What do all those Bohemians actually whisper to their ferments - are they using their jars as cheaper microbial psychotherapists whom they tell all their heavy stories? And why would someone harass a milk like that? Since we weren’t there when those myths happen and we cannot fully inhabit the past, we cannot know. But we can speculate about it.<br />
<br />
At the workshop, we will craft our own versions of past, present, and future food mythologies. Each fermented jar will be complemented by a scenario describing not only what the jar is, but also imagining what it could be. Alongside such fictionalizing, our jars will become fermented prototypes of speculative food realities; embodying our own handmade edible mythologies. To further support our imagination, we will use the Food Tarot cards deck (http://materie.me/foodparlour) that presents 22 ‘speculative diet tribes’ symbolizing various experimental ‘not quite yet’ food practices. Food Tarot tribes such as Gut Gardeners, Monsa[n]tanists, and Ethical Cannibals raise questions about the complex, messy realities of everyday food worlds and provoke imaginaries about possible alternatives. Workshop participants are welcomed to contribute their fermentation resources - edible, practical, or imaginary. Bring and share your own ferments, instruments, ideas, techniques and anything else that makes up your fermentation practice.<br />

'''Re:flexions on Stutgaart Humus Sapiens by DrBrian the Emotionally Raw One'''<br />
<br />
<br />
I intended 2018 to be a year of fermentations.... I imagined doing a lot, of bootstrapping, of waiting for the seasons of the elderflower and berry. Of supping the berry wine from late 2015, and making a new one. It didn’t go according to plan.... I watched my elderflower grove being destroyed by developers, I collected elderflowers to make a syrup, and it self fermented. I collected berries from sacred urban groves but didn’t quite get there. I found new elder trees, that I will visit again in 2019. My life went through a catalysm, and I found myself brewing a herbal leminade made from herbs and lavender in a high security mental facility. My first ferment was far tooo crazy..it was chucked by the cleaning ladies. <br />
The second one became a pond for a while eventually growing a crop of mosquitoes. <br />
It was a year of wild eating and wild water, sage and herb from the allotment, water from whatever place, accidentally imbibed insects as I inhaled them on bike rides at dusk. It was not a year of bio-safety, but a year of re-enervation of a microbiome. That got me happy, also destroyed a number of self limitations, I did not “limit my yield”(Permaculture term) for the first time. <br />
The 2015 elderberry got thrown out by mistake by a friend helping my wife clean the family home, where I no longer lived. My appreciation of trees grew, and of appreciating groves and knolls, of spotting places that pre-historic peoples would have used as their fire protected habitations. Of seeing arrangements, of finding new places for thinking, of thinking of relations between pagans, romans and Christians, witches, shamens and herbal lores, around Newcastle, Ireland and Germany <br />
And then....<br />
Stuttgart, Container City, Taut – an art agency, A little neighborhood bar Keviks Staal Werks,the venue Neu Chatel and the Recording Studio of Re:. Places of Cognition, or conversation. Places where 4E was apparent, I thought with my brain and my body, and my environment, and in turn the environment thought me. <br />
I found places and people there, that I recognised from feelings of childhood. They reminded me of the children of my parents friends. Or maybe my intense Nostalgia bent reality a bit around me? Sending comfort in a strange situation. That separation from Newcastle(my chosen city) and Adelaide(my birth and extended childhood one), allowed an appreciation. I became a probe of myself, an expert on “what it is, that Brian need to survive and thrive”. These Stuttgart things of wine culture, the burning/bbq culture and the culture of sausages and lizards was familiar as an Australian who grew up in a little catholic Europe in Adelaide of emigrants from Italy, Greek, Poland, Uk and Lebanon, Turkey, Vietnam, Sri Lanka. <br />
The realisations were manifold. …. I could have crushes without having to do things, I recognised that a shopping centre was a modern environment, akin to a savannah. I needed far less than I thought initially. There was times of fire, of entanglements, of incomprehensions, of not knowing the language or the conventions, of stepping on peoples toes, of testing the new collaborations and connections, of serendipities and happy accidents. <br />
<br />
So Humus Sapiens:<br />
I was a mess, it was like a homecoming. Tricky transfers, flat batteiries, unhelpful people, and then crunching down the metaled rocky road, to a place that looked strange, and seeing familiar faces, and people that would be familiar forever now. To come into a shared candlelight dinner, realising I was back amongst friends and kin and my tribe of hacker-maker-thinker-SCIartists<br />
<br />
The conversation was deep, connecting down at the bare metal of the HomSapiensBios around a fire. Just coming out of a long-term relationship, where I was blind to how I had withdrawn too much, how I had circumscribed myself, but how that was taken for granted as the status quo. <br />
<br />
I keep trying to talk about fermentation, but end up talking about relations. I was late to the party, though I had been in a fermentation frame since 2011, where I had started to notice the use of fermentation as an art movement. And earlier, much earlier, in 1996, where I had started to ruminate on semisterile biotech.<br />
<br />
Humus Sapiens is a radical project, it attempts(with gentle suggestions, convivial settings, and fermented products) to recentre the focus not on the human as the Primary Actor, but on these processes that move through us and move us. It is supposed that bacteria are like our toolkit....they allow us to adapt as individuals in Real Time to changes in food availability, toxins in the environment, food competition, light levels, stress levels and etc. But we also recognise that backterias may have had a big hand in the inventions of humans, or things that think with their Brain rather than just their guts and stomaches. <br />
<br />
This is a real stream.... <br />
<br />
It was quick few days, of herbal gatherings, food and an opening,<br />
And then I went to Zurich, I returned for a emotion finding reason, but stayed for the party and the fermentations....and for my own testing[self-test] of the metal, and to take the waters, <br />
Ah the waters, these highly mineralised waters that had been worshipped as life giving from before the time the romans set up in Badd Canstatt. <br />
Ah the Spa/Sauna....the first time I really took the waters in 2018. I had been to the North Sea, and had been baptised, slipped and gotten wet feet in the allan, and the north sea. <br />
But not full immersion till then. <br />
<br />
Back to Humus Sapiens, the Dissemination in Zurich was strange, “they” didn’t like my talk. I was wrong footed and came across antagonistic. I think we were just talking about different things, they about philosophy(without religion), and me attempting to talk about the viscera, of how a ferementation meal has the real ability to transform. They, the fine artists didnt “get it” It is not just a meal, not just a performative act that finishes when you stop, it is living ancient technology that may shift your microbiome over the next weeks. You become the meal, the meal processes you, you are the one eaten and shat out slightly new. <br />

<br />
great article about "daphnia culturing made simple" [http://www.aka.org/wako/DaphniaCultureMadeSimple.htm]<br />
<br />
''"I hope this helps for anybody wishing to venture into daphnia production or who have had troubles in the past. Daphnia culture can be reduced to science, although for many it may still seem like magic!"''<br />
<br />
Feeding: [http://www.nutricentre.com/p-43437-chlorella-powder.aspx?gclid=CMue3-O1vroCFbLJtAodeyQAcg chlorella powder] and yeast<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Hunting and Breeding 2 ===<br />
<br />
Many instuctions online on how to cultivate daphnia. Big pot of water, add some daphnia, feed with yeast and put some bladder snails with it. Those apparently eat the dead daphnia and help them grow. Now there are also many reports in dedicated blogs that it is not as easy as this in practice. Let's try and see where the secret is.<br><br />
<br><br />
Some notes:<br><br />
- Daphnia need big containers. Pools seem to be best. I read 20 - 40 galons (= 75 - 150 liters !!)<br><br />
- Some however report to do it in big jars.<br><br />
- Water quality needs to be stable.<br><br />
- They eat yeast and algae<br><br />
- ...<br />
<br />
<br />
[[File:daphnia_containement.jpg|320px]]<br />
<br />
[[File:daphnia_hunt1.jpg|x260px]][[File:daphnia_hunt2.jpg|x260px]]<br><br><br />
<br />
After several weeks of experimenting I managed to get a quite stable population of Dophnia. Here some toughts and learnings:<br><br />
- Biology takes time - there are several cycles involved, growth of algae, growth of snails, growth of daphnia, change of water quality. You do not see much in the beginning and one cycle takes at least one week. So be paitient, obesrver and only make little changes. <br><br />
- Growing a population is about creating a stable ecosystem. The Daphnia eat primarely poop and (maybe algae). Poop form duck in bigger ponds or from snails in aquariums. Then they have eggs i their body, then little daphnia babies. The snails eat the daphnia and vegetables (and maybe algae). This forms a cycle and this cycle needs to be stable. Not too many snails nor to little poop. Snails seem to stabilize the water quality which is important. <br><br />
- Once conditions are right growth is rapid (exponential) - for Daphnia as well as for snails. At some point I had 100 baby snails and then I had 1000 baby daphnia. At one point I see hundreds of snail eggs and then then none.<br><br />

=== Self contained Ecosystems ===<br />
It is fairly simple to set up a self contained ecosystem<br />
What you need is daphnia, some algae or a bit of pond weed and a glass jar<br />
Half fill the container with rainwater, add daphnia and algae or pond weed,<br />
seal, and place on a sunny windowledge <br />
The daphnia population with go up and down, hopefully there will always be a few individuals to start another population.<br />
Looking at the lifecycle, we can see that they have lots of ways of breeding. This versatility means as long as there is one, there is hope :)<br />

great article about "daphnia culturing made simple" [http://www.aka.org/wako/DaphniaCultureMadeSimple.htm]<br />
<br />
''"I hope this helps for anybody wishing to venture into daphnia production or who have had troubles in the past. Daphnia culture can be reduced to science, although for many it may still seem like magic!"''<br />
<br />
Feeding: [http://www.nutricentre.com/p-43437-chlorella-powder.aspx?gclid=CMue3-O1vroCFbLJtAodeyQAcg chlorella powder] and yeast<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Hunting and Breeding 2 ===<br />
<br />
Many instuctions online on how to cultivate daphnia. Big pot of water, add some daphnia, feed with yeast and put some bladder snails with it. Those apparently eat the dead daphnia and help them grow. Now there are also many reports in dedicated blogs that it is not as easy as this in practice. Let's try and see where the secret is.<br><br />
<br><br />
Some notes:<br><br />
- Daphnia need big containers. Pools seem to be best. I read 20 - 40 galons (= 75 - 150 liters !!)<br><br />
- Some however report to do it in big jars.<br><br />
- Water quality needs to be stable.<br><br />
- They eat yeast and algae<br><br />
- ...<br />
<br />
<br />
[[File:daphnia_containement.jpg|320px]]<br />
<br />
[[File:daphnia_hunt1.jpg|x260px]][[File:daphnia_hunt2.jpg|x260px]]<br><br><br />
<br />
After several weeks of experimenting I managed to get a quite stable population of Dophnia. Here some toughts and learnings:<br><br />
- Biology takes time - there are several cycles involved, growth of algae, growth of snails, growth of daphnia, change of water quality. You do not see much in the beginning and one cycle takes at least one week. So be paitient, obesrver and only make little changes. <br><br />
- Growing a population is about creating a stable ecosystem. The Daphnia eat primarely poop and (maybe algae). Poop form duck in bigger ponds or from snails in aquariums. Then they have eggs i their body, then little daphnia babies. The snails eat the daphnia and vegetables (and maybe algae). This forms a cycle and this cycle needs to be stable. Not too many snails nor to little poop. Snails seem to stabilize the water quality which is important. <br><br />
- Once conditions are right growth is rapid (exponential) - for Daphnia as well as for snails. At some point I had 100 baby snails and then I had 1000 baby daphnia. At one point I see hundreds of snail eggs and then then none.<br><br />
- Snails need some crushed egg shells for their shells and they like cucumber<br><br />
- Not sure about yeast (and paprika) yet. To much of it seems to kill the daphnia. Some might favor breeding.<br><br />
- Observing Daphnia under the microscope regularly is very useful to see if they are well fed, healthy, carry eggs or babies.<br><br />
- At one point hydra suddenly apeared on the wall of the aquarium. I cleaned and restarted.<br><br />

=== Hunting and Breeding 2 ===<br />
<br />
Many instuctions online on how to cultivate daphnia. Big pot of water, add some daphnia, feed with yeast and put some bladder snails with it. Those apparently eat the dead daphnia and help them grow. Now there are also many reports in dedicated blogs that it is not as easy as this in practice. Let's try and see where the secret is.<br><br />
<br><br />
Some notes:<br><br />
- Daphnia need big containers. Pools seem to be best. I read 20 - 40 galons (= 75 - 150 liters !!)<br><br />
- Some however report to do it in big jars.<br><br />
- Water quality needs to be stable.<br><br />
- They eat yeast and algae<br><br />
- ...<br />

<br />
After several weeks of experimenting I managed to get a quite stable population of Dophnia. Here some toughts and learnings:<br><br />
- Biology takes time - there are several cycles involved, growth of algae, growth of snails, growth of daphnia, change of water quality. You do not see much in the beginning and one cycle takes at least one week. So be paitient, obesrver and only make little changes. <br><br />
- Growing a population is about creating a stable ecosystem. The Daphnia eat primarely poop and (maybe algae). Poop form duck in bigger ponds or from snails in aquariums. Then they have eggs i their body, then little daphnia babies. The snails eat the daphnia and vegetables (and maybe algae). This forms a cycle and this cycle needs to be stable. Not too many snails nor to little poop. Snails seem to stabilize the water quality which is important. <br><br />
- Once conditions are right growth is rapid (exponential) - for Daphnia as well as for snails. At some point I had 100 baby snails and then I had 1000 baby daphnia. At one point I see hundreds of snail eggs and then then none.<br><br />
- Snails need some crushed egg shells for their shells and they like cucumber<br><br />
- Not sure about yeast (and paprika) yet. To much of it seems to kill the daphnia. Some might favor breeding.<br><br />
- Observing Daphnia under the microscope regularly is very useful to see if they are well fed, healthy, carry eggs or babies.<br><br />
- At one point hydra suddenly apeared on the wall of the aquarium. I cleaned and restarted.<br><br />

=== Self contained Ecosystems ===<br />
It is fairly simple to set up a self contained ecosystem<br />
What you need is daphnia, some algae or a bit of pond weed and a glass jar<br />
Half fill the container with rainwater, add daphnia and algae or pond weed,<br />
seal, and place on a sunny windowledge <br />
The daphnia population with go up and down, hopefully there will always be a few individuals to start another population.<br />
Looking at the lifecycle, we can see that they have lots of ways of breeding. This versatility means as long as there is one, there is hope :)<br />

== GENERAL INTRODUCTION ==<br />
<br />
Bioluminescence is visible light made by living creatures. Such creatures are rare on land but extremely common in the oceans. see more on Marine Bioluminescence by BioScience | Explained here: [[File:BiolumEN.pdf]]<br />
<br />
Read more here: http://www.quantum-immortal.net/physics/biolum.php<br />
<br />
'''Bioluminescence is not the same as phosphorescence'''<br />
<br />
Even though Steinbeck, Hemmingway and even Darwin referred to the “phosphorescence of the sea” this is a literary rather than a scientific description. Phosphorescence is the delayed emission of light from a source that has been excited by light. Examples include glow-in-the-dark paints and toys.<br />
<br />
'''Bioluminescence is not the same as fluorescence'''<br />
<br />
As with phosphorescence light emission is stimulated by light not by a chemical reaction. With fluorescence the excitation wavelength is always shorter, that is, higher energy, than the emission wavelength and emission ceases as soon as the excitation source is turned off. Some of this confusion may have arisen because some, but not all, luciferins are fluorescent and a few pass their excitation energy along to fluorescent proteins like GFP.<br />
<br />
<br />
== LUMINOUS BACTERIA ==<br />
<br />
At present, light-emitting bacteria are found in approximately 25 species of five genera in three families of Gammaproteobacteria: Shewanella (Shewanellaceae), Photorhabdus (Enterobacteriaceae), and Vibrionaceae (Aliivibrio, Photobacterium, and Vibrio) (Dunlap & Kita-Tsukamoto, 2006; Ast et al., 2009; Dunlap, 2009; Yoshizawa et al., 2009a, b).<br />
<br />
Members of seven Photobacterium species produce luminescence: Photobacterium angustum (certain strains), Photobacterium aquimaris, Photobacterium damselae (certain strains), Photobacterium kishitanii, P.leiognathi, Photobacterium mandapamensis, and P.phosphoreum.<br />
<br />
Vibrio fischeri (Beijerinck 1889) got a new reclassification from genus Vibrio to the newly created Aliivibrio in 2007.<br />

'''Isolation of luminous bacteria from fish or squid'''<br />
<br />
[[File:Photobacterium_phosphoreum.jpg|thumb|from [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Photobacterium_phosphoreum citizendium]|320px|right]]<br />
[[File:P5_AR0_0158.jpg|thumb|Luminous bacteria of a coalfish filet in a petri dish|320px|right]]<br />
from [http://www.bioscience-explained.org/ bioScience | Explained], download [[File:BioSci_expl_PhotoLumen.pdf]]<br />
<br />
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photobacterium_phosphoreum ''P. phosphoreum''] is one of the commonest spoilage organisms of fish such as cod. It is not known to cause disease, but there are reports of people being startled by glowing fish fingers in the fridge!<br />
<br />
To isolate glowing bacteria from fish, obtain a freshly-caught seafish or squid. It is very important that the fish has not been frozen or washed in fresh water. It is also better if the fish has not been stored on ice. (That‘s what you usually find everywhere on the Internet. But you can buy almost any saltwater fish fillet from the counter and you will be able to isolate glowing bacteria.)<br />
Place the fish in a container with 3% NaCl solution. The liquid should be deep enough to come half way up the fish.<br />
<br />
Cover the container and store the fish for 24 hours at about 12–15 °C. Note: if this temperature is difficult to achieve, place the fish in a fridge at about 4 °C for 48–72 hours.<br />
<br />
After incubation, take the container with the fish into a dark room. When your eyes have been adopted to dark, light spots will be visible on<br />
the skin of the fish. Use a sterile toothpick or disposable sterile loop or needle to aseptically transfer the brightest spots onto sterile fish enrichment agar plates. Tip: some people find it useful to use a dim red lamp (e.g., a photographic safety lamp) for this step. Turn the fish away from the lamp so that the glowing colonies are in the shade and therefore visible.<br />
<br />
Transfer the cultures to new agar plates every second day if you are incubating them at temperatures around 12 °C or once a week if you are<br />
storing them in a fridge. P. phosphoreum will grow at 4 °C; V. fischeri will not. By selecting the brightest colonies when inoculating, it should be possible to isolate a pure culture.<br />
<br />
'''Fish enrichment medium'''<br />
* Boil 250 g fish meat in 1 l of water.<br />
* Add 30 g NaCl and sieve to remove solids.<br />
* Add 10 g peptone, 10 ml glycerol and 1 g yeast extract.<br />
* Adjust the pH to 7.<br />
* Autoclave at 121 °C for 15–20 minutes.<br />
<br />
For a solid medium add 15–20 g of agar to every litre of broth.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Safety note'''<br />
Several species of Vibrio are pathogenic. The chances of inadvertently isolating pathogens in this procedure can be reduced by using at least 3% salt solution and incubating fish and plates at no more than 15 °C. Human pathogens are unlikely to grow under such conditions.<br />
<br />

=== Photorhabdus luminescens ===<br />
<br />
Photorhabdus luminescens (sometimes called Xenorhabdus luminescens) is a bioluminescent microbe and lives in symbiotic relationship with soil entomopathogenic nematodes(family: Heterorhabditidae).<br />
<br />
* Domain: Bacteria<br />
* Phylum: Proteobacteria<br />
* Class: Gammaproteobacteria<br />
* Order: Enterobacteriales<br />
* Family: Enterobacteriaceae<br />
* Genus: Photorhabdus<br />
* Species: luminescens<br />
<br />
[http://genomea.asm.org/content/2/2/e00396-14.abstract Draft Genome Sequence of Photorhabdus luminescens Strain BA1]<br />
<br />
Photorhabdus luminescens bacteria live in Nematodes and produce a toxin that is pathogenic for many insects.<br />
The nematodes infect insect larvae and kill them with the toxin. In the insect larvae, the bacteria excrete next to the fatal toxin also an antibiotic substance to prevent invasion of the insect by bacterial or fungal competitors, and a luminescent protein that causes a faint glow in the infected insect remains.<br />

<br />
There have been some reported cases of human infection by Photorhabdus luminescens. <br />
Stories from the American Civil War and the First World War tell of soldiers with wounds that glowed in the dark. Their fluorescing tissues appeared to heal more cleanly and more quickly than the unilluminated wounds of their counterparts. This mysterious phenomenon became known as the „Angel’s Glow“. The afflicted soldiers had no idea that the glow was caused by a beneficial bacterial infection and instead interpreted it as the gift of survival from God, handed to them by angels, hence the name.<br />

Nematodes are used as pesticides in organic farming; so for orchards, for young vines and ornamental plants, against the black vine weevil and the garden chafer.<br />
In Switzerland you can easily buy such nematodes at coop and migros.<br />

'''Influence of culture conditions on mycelial growth and luminescence of Panellus stipticus'''<br />
<br />
IB Prasher, VC Chandel, AS Ahluwalia - Journal of research in Biology (2012) 3: 152-159<br />
<br />
ABSTRACT: <br />
<br />
Panellus stipticus (Bull.) P. Karst, a naturally bioluminescent tropical fungus, has been studied in vitro for the optimum culture conditions viz culture media, temperature, pH and days of incubation required for luminescence. Temperature and pH affect growth and bioluminescence to a great extent. Glucose-peptone medium has been found to be the best for optimum mycelial growth as well as luminescence. The fungus exhibits luminescence at 20-24°C. The maximum mycelia dry weight (mg/25ml of the basal media) and luminescence observed at pH 4.0. The fungus exhibits luminescence after eight days of incubation at 24°C and pH 4.0, whereas it intensified to maximum after 13 days of incubation (pH 4.0 and temperature 24°C). <br />

Used as lighting for early submarines http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Turtle<br />
<br />
''"Six small pieces of thick glass in the top of the submarine provided natural light.[5] Illumination while submerged was provided by a piece of cork that gave off a fungus-powered bioluminescent foxfire. During trials in November 1775, Bushnell discovered that this illumination failed when the temperature dropped too low. Although repeated requests were made to Benjamin Franklin for possible alternatives, none were forthcoming, and the Turtle was sidelined for the winter."''<br />
<br />
<br />
=== GLOWING WOOD ===<br />
<br />
Glowing Wood is a bioluminescence phenomenon caused by a fungus. Some fungi have the ability for bioluminescence and one of them is Armillaria.<br />
<br />
'''Armillaria -->''' Honey fungus, or Hallimasch (German) or оpenky (Ukrainian) is a genus of parasitic fungi that live on trees and woody shrubs. It includes about 10 species formerly lumped together as Armillaria mellea.<br />
It is known to be one of the largest living organisms, where scientists have estimated a single specimen (of the species Armillaria solidipes) found in Malheur National Forest in Oregon to have been growing for some 2,400 years, covering 3.4 square miles (8.4 km²). Some species of Armillaria are bioluminescent and may be responsible for the phenomena known as „foxfire“ and perhaps „will o‘ the wisp“.<br />
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armillaria wikipedia.org]<br />
<br />
Actually Armillaria is known as a common tree pest, because it means certain death for the infected trees.<br />

<br />
A clear growing container (shallow containers with lots of surface area)Sanitation is necessary so your batch doesn‘t crash.<br />
REALLY wash out the grow container, make sure there is absolutely no residue left.<br />
Culture flasks -- Sterilized glassware if autoclave is available, otherwise use disposable tissue culture flasks.<br />
If you use sterile media and glassware, your cultures will continue forever; every month pour about 1/4 of the culture into some new medium. If you can‘t maintain sterile culture conditions, the cells will last for a few weeks to a month before bacteria overgrow the culture. <br />
<br />
Water<br />
* Use purified water as tap water can contain chlorine or other things that might kill your batch.<br />
* No tap water, tap water may contain metal ions that are detrimental to algal growth.<br />
* Temperature: 22° C (Pyrocystis fusiformis 15°C - 25°C)<br />
<br />
Sea Salt from pet or aquarium stores<br />
<br />
Light and timer<br />
* Indirect natural light is good, but not direct sunlight.<br />
* Illumination with cool-white fluorescent lamps<br />
* Fluorescent light, either cool white or full spectrum, is also sufficient. Avoid incandescent lamps, as they can overheat the water and kill your algae.<br />
* A grow light or an aquarium/terriarium light<br />
* Recommendation of Sciento: We finde illumination under 30-40 watt Fluorescent tube or LED lighting ideal and avoid lighting like halogen bulbs or high wattage incandescent bulbs which tend to emit excessive heat.<br />
* 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness every 24 hours<br />
<br />
Nutrients (Growth medium)<br />
* Dinoflagellates require nitrate, phosphate, trace metals, and vitamins.<br />

'''Phototaxis''' is a kind of taxis, or locomotory movement, that occurs when a whole organism moves towards or away from stimulus of light.This is advantageous for phototrophic organisms as they can orient themselves most efficiently to receive light for photosynthesis.<br />
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phototaxis (wikipedia.org)]<br />
<br />
'''Phototropism''' is the movement or growth of organisms in response to lights or colors of light (e.g.- the sunflower)<br />
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phototropism (wikipedia.org)]<br />
<br />
'''Heliotropism''' is the motion of plant parts (flowers or leaves) in response to the direction of the sun. A. P. de Candolle called this phenomenon in any plant heliotropism (1832). It was renamed phototropism in 1892, because it is a response to light rather than to the sun.<br />

'''B. Ueber das Leuchten von Würsten'''<br />
<br />
Ueber diesen Gengenstand finden sich in der Literatur nur wenige brauchbare Nachrichten. Das Beste darüber verdanken wir Heller (1). Er erhielt im Winter 1852 in Wien von dem Sanitätsmagister Dr. Stuhlberger mehrere Würste, welche die Polizeibehörde deshalb in einem Verkaufsgewölbe konfiszieren liess, weil die Würste durch ein sehr starkes Leuchten auf ihrer ganzen Oberfläche verdächtig erschienen. Heller gibt davon folgende Beschreibung: "Die Würste waren rohe, sogenannte "Augsburger", 4 Zoll lang und 1 1/2 Zoll dick. Sie verbreiteten nicht im geringsten einen unangenehmen oder gar fauligen Geruch und hatten einen guten frischen Geschmack. Die Füllung bestand meist aus rohem Rindfleisch und wenig rohem Schweinefleisch.<br />
<br />
Die Würste waren weich, an der Oberfläche nass und schleimig und trockneten nicht an der Luft. Sie hatten übrigens am Tageslicht keine besondere Eigenschaft. Schon im Halbdunkel leuchteten sie, aber in einem finsteren Raume war auf ihrer ganzen Oberfläche ein sehr starkes, weisslich-grünliches, ruhiges, nicht dampfendes Licht verbreitet, dass man schon bei einer Wurst gewöhnliche Druckschrift recht gut lesen konnte.<br />

'''Sterile Technique and Agar Culture'''<br />
<br />
Water quality (its pH and mineral content) varies from region to region. If living in an area of questionable water purity, the use of distilled water is advisable. For all practical purposes, however, tap water can be used without harm to the mushroom mycelium. A time may come when balancing pH is important—especially at spore germination or in the culture of exotic species. The pH of media can be altered by adding a drop at a time of 1 molar concentration of hydrochloric acid (HCL) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH). The medium is thoroughly mixed and then measured using a pH meter or pH papers. (One molar HCL has a pH of 0; one molar NaOH has a pH of 12; and distilled water has a pH of 7).<br />
<br />
After thoroughly mixing these ingredients, sterilize the medium in a pressure cooker for 30 miutes at 15 psi (equals 103 KPa). (Pressure cookers are a safe and effective means of sterilizing media provided they are operated according to the manufacturer's instructions). A small mouthed vessel is recommended for holding the agar media. If not using a flask specifically manufactured for pouring media, any narrow necked glass bottle will suffice. Be sure to plug its opening with cotton and cover with aluminum foil before inserting into the pressure cooker. The media container should be filled only to 2/3 to 3/4 of its capacity.<br />
<br />
Place the media filled container into the pressure cooker along with an adequate amount o water for generating steam. (Usually a 1/2 inch layer of water at the bottom will do). Seal the cooker according to the manufacturer's directions. Place the pressure cooker on a burner and heat until ample steam is being generated. Allow the steam to vent for 4-5 minutes before closing the stop cock. Slowly bring the pressure up to 15 psi and maintain for 1/2 hour. Do not let the temperature of the cooker exceed 250 °F. or else the sugar in the media will caramelize. Media with caramelized sugar inhibits mycelial growth and promotes genetic mutations. A sterilized pot holder or newly laundered cloth should be handy in the sterile lab to aid in removing the media flask from the pressure cooker. While the media is being sterilized, immaculately clean the laboratory.<br />

Any post-doc knows this...You go to work in someone elses lab and you think it will be ok...But it dosen't feel right. But you ignore your feelings (because you are a scientist), your PI is clearly great(RIKEN Class), but he does not bring out the best in you, he gets you to do a 'simple' sub-cloning job for another group in the institution, which he thinks will take a week, and it sucks up a few months of your contract period, when you should be working on something that will publish. At the end of the year he tells you he wont be renewing your contract...because you didn't do enough. <br />

Most of the tools we use are do it your self (DIY) and open source and are built from widely available and recycled parts found in consumer products such as DVD drives, hard disks and pc fans. Building the specific devices further helps to understand the basic principles behind and learn more about the technologies and methods used. The discussions among scientists and engineers in the process of rethinking the devices to make them more accessible are very fruitful and often lead to new and innovative designs.'' - Urs Gaudenz<br />

''We present a set of case studies in which students create, customize, and personalize their own scientific instruments – and thus become engaged in scientific inquiry not only through observing and measuring but also through designing and building. While computational technologies have, in general, contributed to making today’s scientific instruments more “opaque ” (that is, less understandable) and less aesthetically-pleasing than their predecessors, we argue that these same technologies can be used to bring back a sense of transparency and aesthetics to the design of scientific instruments. We analyze how students, by building their own scientific instruments, can: pursue a broader range of scientific investigations of their own choosing, feel a stronger sense of personal investment in their scientific investigations, and develop deeper critical capacities in evaluating scientific measurements and knowledge.''<br />

* '''Open Science, open issues''' by Sarita Albagli, et al.<br />
<br />
[[File:OpenScience_coverBook.png|120px|thumb]]<br />
<br />
This book brings contributions by researchers from different areas and a wide range of countries, including Brazil, who have a significant role and reflection in the field of open and collaborative science. <br />
<br />
The topic of open science is gaining ground not only within institutional environments for science, technology and innovation, but also in other contexts that, until now, were kept apart from these activities. As a result, it is mobilising other social groups as interlocutors of scientific practices. In turn, the resulting transformations in the relations between science, technology and society integrate the new dynamics of production and circulation of knowledge as well as the new role played by these dynamics in contemporary processes of social participation and change.<br />
<br />
It is hoped that this publication will provide an overview of topics and issues that both trace and permeate the topic of open science nowadays from different perspectives and points of view. Above all, it is hoped that it might instigate further reflection and foster new ways of producing and circulating knowledge. Thus, it is geared not only towards the academic world, but also to abroader range of social actors that concern themselves with the democratisation of knowledge and information. The book is inspired by the results of the discussions held during the International Seminar “Open Science, Open Questions” that took place in Rio de Janeiro in 2014. <br />
<br />
The Seminar was organised by: the Brazilian Institute for Information in Science and Technology (IBICT), Open Knowledge Brasil (OKBr), the Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro (Unirio) and the Interdisciplinary Laboratory for the Study of Information and Knowledge (Liinc). We would like to thank Ibict, Unirio, the Brazilian Center for<br />

<br />
[[File:cover_denisa_geek_diplomacy.png|120px|thumb]]<br />
<br />
The Do-It-Youself biology (DIYbio) movement originated in the U.S. in approximately 2009 around student iGEM synthetic biology competitions as well as parallel open biology efforts in Europe and Asia with their connections to bioart and critical science practices in the late 1990s. This movement merged in recent years with other movements coming from professional scientists advocating eScience, Open Science, Open Access and Open Data. The calls for changing the publishing model and opening the datasets while supporting online collaboration and crowdsourcing are starting to merge with attempts to reduce the cost of experimental research and increase reproducibility by building low cost customizable laboratory equipment.<br />

<br />
"Biotechnological research is no longer limited to specialist laboratories: a growing community of biologists, amateur enthusiasts and technophiles is experimenting in kitchens, workshops and DIY laboratories. Some people view the democratisation of biotechnology as a threat, others as an opportunity to gain a better understanding of complex scientific interrelationships within society."<br />
<br />
"Biotechnologische Forschung findet heute nicht mehr nur in spezialisierten Labors statt. Eine wachsende Gemeinschaft von Biologen, Bastlern und Technikbegeisterten experimentiert in Küchen, Werkstätten und Eigenbau-Labors. Einige sehen in der Demokratisierung der Biotechnologie eine Gefahr; andere die Chance für ein besseres Verständnis von komplexen wissenschaftlichen Zusammenhängen in der Gesellschaft."<br />
<br />
"Aujourd’hui, la recherche biotechnologique n’est plus l’apanage des laboratoires spécialisés. Une communauté croissante de biologistes, de bricoleurs et de passionnés de technique s’adonne à des expériences dans des cuisines, des ateliers et des laboratoires individuels. Certains considèrent cette démocratisation de la biotechnologie comme un danger, d’autres comme une chance d’améliorer la compréhension des relations scientifiques complexes au sein de la société."<br />

[[File:low-cost_approach_to_PCR.jpg|120px|thumb]]<br />
<br />
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a technique used to replicate specific pieces of DNA millions of times, which permits the detection and analysis of minute amounts of nucleic acids. Since its introduction in the late 1980s, this technique has been applied not only in molecular biology research but also in fields as diverse as anthropology, phylogeny, and forensics. However, despite the large impact of PCR, many of its applications remain within the confines of research and the academic environment. Now, in A Low-Cost Approach to PCR: Appropriate Transfer of Biomolecular Techniques, Dr. Eva Harris makes this elegantly simple technique more accessible to researchers, physicians, and laboratory workers throughout the world. She provides a description of the theoretical basis of the technique, the practical details of the method, and the philosophy behind the technology transfer program that she developed over the last ten years.<br />

'''Appropedia - Building research equipment with free, open-source hardware'''<br />
<br />
Most experimental research projects are executed with a combination of purchased hardware equipment, which may be modified in the laboratory and custom single-built equipment fabricated inhouse. However, the computer software that helps design and execute experiments and analyze data has an additional source: It can also be free and open-source software (FOSS). FOSS has the advantage that the code is openly available for modification and is also often free of charge. In the past, customizing software has been much easier than custom-building equipment, which often can be quite costly because fabrication requires the skills of machinists, glassblowers, technicians, or outside suppliers. However, the open-source paradigm is now enabling creation of open-source scientific hardware by combining 3D printing with open-source microcontrollersW running on FOSS. These developments are illustrated below by several examples of equipment fabrication that can better meet particular specifications at substantially lower overall costs.<br />

'''PLOS Collections: Open Source Toolkit: Hardware'''<br />
<br />
The Open Source movement revolutionized the way computer systems were developed and how companies made their businesses. Its philosophy requires that all source code should be freely shared, so that as many people as possible can use, change, learn, and improve upon it. In recent years the increasing availability and low costs of electronic components, processors and 3D printers meant that an open model of development has taken root also in the world of hardware, including the development of scientific lab equipment. The implications for research can hardly be overstated: “Open Labware” designs are almost always cheaper than “closed source” ones, allow for distributed development and, critically, customization by the end user, the lab scientist. PLOS welcomes submissions in this field.<br />

'''Open-Labware.net | 3-D print your own lab equipment'''<br />
<br />
The introduction of affordable, consumer-oriented 3-D printers is a milestone in the current “maker movement,” which has been heralded as the next industrial revolution. Combined with free and open sharing of detailed design blueprints and accessible development tools, rapid prototypes of complex products can now be assembled in one’s own garage—a game-changer reminiscent of the early days of personal computing.<br />
<br />
It therefore comes as no surprise that more and more researchers are beginning to integrate the possibilities offered by 3-D printing and off-the-shelf electronics into their own lab routines, be it to modify existing equipment or to build new tools from scratch. The results are typically published under an Open Source licence in online repositories such as thingiverse, instructables or Hack-a-day. More mature projects are often also submitted for publication in international peer reviewed open access outlets such as PLoS, Frontiers, eLife or Nature Communications.<br />

<br />
[[File:OpenScience_coverBook.png|120px|thumb]]<br />
<br />
This book brings contributions by researchers from different areas and a wide range of countries, including Brazil, who have a significant role and reflection in the field of open and collaborative science. <br />
<br />
The topic of open science is gaining ground not only within institutional environments for science, technology and innovation, but also in other contexts that, until now, were kept apart from these activities. As a result, it is mobilising other social groups as interlocutors of scientific practices. In turn, the resulting transformations in the relations between science, technology and society integrate the new dynamics of production and circulation of knowledge as well as the new role played by these dynamics in contemporary processes of social participation and change.<br />
<br />
It is hoped that this publication will provide an overview of topics and issues that both trace and permeate the topic of open science nowadays from different perspectives and points of view. Above all, it is hoped that it might instigate further reflection and foster new ways of producing and circulating knowledge. Thus, it is geared not only towards the academic world, but also to abroader range of social actors that concern themselves with the democratisation of knowledge and information. The book is inspired by the results of the discussions held during the International Seminar “Open Science, Open Questions” that took place in Rio de Janeiro in 2014. <br />
<br />
The Seminar was organised by: the Brazilian Institute for Information in Science and Technology (IBICT), Open Knowledge Brasil (OKBr), the Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro (Unirio) and the Interdisciplinary Laboratory for the Study of Information and Knowledge (Liinc). We would like to thank Ibict, Unirio, the Brazilian Center for<br />

* '''Open source hardware (OSHW) for open science in the global south: geek diplomacy?''' by Denisa Kera, excerpt from book above<br />
<br />
[[File:cover_denisa_geek_diplomacy.png|120px|thumb]]<br />
<br />
The Do-It-Youself biology (DIYbio) movement originated in the U.S. in approximately 2009 around student iGEM synthetic biology competitions as well as parallel open biology efforts in Europe and Asia with their connections to bioart and critical science practices in the late 1990s. This movement merged in recent years with other movements coming from professional scientists advocating eScience, Open Science, Open Access and Open Data. The calls for changing the publishing model and opening the datasets while supporting online collaboration and crowdsourcing are starting to merge with attempts to reduce the cost of experimental research and increase reproducibility by building low cost customizable laboratory equipment.<br />

<br />
The article from SATW Info 2/15 – Biotechnology for all / DIY in bioanalytics: doing and grasping it yourself is available for download in German, English and French. The pedagogic conecpt and educational kits were developed during a project funded by the Swiss Academy for Engineering Sciences (SATW), together with hackteria, M. Dusseiller and U. Gaudenz, and FHNW School for Lifesciences, Dr. D. Gygax, during a workshop with an interdisciplinary group of participants. <br />
<br />
"Biotechnological research is no longer limited to specialist laboratories: a growing community of biologists, amateur enthusiasts and technophiles is experimenting in kitchens, workshops and DIY laboratories. Some people view the democratisation of biotechnology as a threat, others as an opportunity to gain a better understanding of complex scientific interrelationships within society."<br />
<br />
"Biotechnologische Forschung findet heute nicht mehr nur in spezialisierten Labors statt. Eine wachsende Gemeinschaft von Biologen, Bastlern und Technikbegeisterten experimentiert in Küchen, Werkstätten und Eigenbau-Labors. Einige sehen in der Demokratisierung der Biotechnologie eine Gefahr; andere die Chance für ein besseres Verständnis von komplexen wissenschaftlichen Zusammenhängen in der Gesellschaft."<br />
<br />
"Aujourd’hui, la recherche biotechnologique n’est plus l’apanage des laboratoires spécialisés. Une communauté croissante de biologistes, de bricoleurs et de passionnés de technique s’adonne à des expériences dans des cuisines, des ateliers et des laboratoires individuels. Certains considèrent cette démocratisation de la biotechnologie comme un danger, d’autres comme une chance d’améliorer la compréhension des relations scientifiques complexes au sein de la société."<br />

'''A Low-Cost Approach to PCR, Eva Harris, 1998'''<br />
<br />
[[File:low-cost_approach_to_PCR.jpg|120px|thumb]]<br />
<br />
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a technique used to replicate specific pieces of DNA millions of times, which permits the detection and analysis of minute amounts of nucleic acids. Since its introduction in the late 1980s, this technique has been applied not only in molecular biology research but also in fields as diverse as anthropology, phylogeny, and forensics. However, despite the large impact of PCR, many of its applications remain within the confines of research and the academic environment. Now, in A Low-Cost Approach to PCR: Appropriate Transfer of Biomolecular Techniques, Dr. Eva Harris makes this elegantly simple technique more accessible to researchers, physicians, and laboratory workers throughout the world. She provides a description of the theoretical basis of the technique, the practical details of the method, and the philosophy behind the technology transfer program that she developed over the last ten years.<br />

Raymond E. Barrett's Build-It-Yourself Science Laboratory took on an audacious task: to show readers how to build a complete working science lab (starting with a workbench) for chemistry, biology, and physics--and how to perform experiments with those tools. The experiments in this book may appear fearless and bold by today's standards, but many from previous generations fondly remember how we as a society used to approach scientific learning. Updated for today's world with annotations and sourcing notes by Windell Oskay of Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories, prepare to read (and use) this classic to reinvigorate scientific exploration at school and at home.<br />

'''Appropedia - Building research equipment with free, open-source hardware'''<br />
<br />
Most experimental research projects are executed with a combination of purchased hardware equipment, which may be modified in the laboratory and custom single-built equipment fabricated inhouse. However, the computer software that helps design and execute experiments and analyze data has an additional source: It can also be free and open-source software (FOSS). FOSS has the advantage that the code is openly available for modification and is also often free of charge. In the past, customizing software has been much easier than custom-building equipment, which often can be quite costly because fabrication requires the skills of machinists, glassblowers, technicians, or outside suppliers. However, the open-source paradigm is now enabling creation of open-source scientific hardware by combining 3D printing with open-source microcontrollersW running on FOSS. These developments are illustrated below by several examples of equipment fabrication that can better meet particular specifications at substantially lower overall costs.<br />

'''PLOS Collections: Open Source Toolkit: Hardware'''<br />
<br />
The Open Source movement revolutionized the way computer systems were developed and how companies made their businesses. Its philosophy requires that all source code should be freely shared, so that as many people as possible can use, change, learn, and improve upon it. In recent years the increasing availability and low costs of electronic components, processors and 3D printers meant that an open model of development has taken root also in the world of hardware, including the development of scientific lab equipment. The implications for research can hardly be overstated: “Open Labware” designs are almost always cheaper than “closed source” ones, allow for distributed development and, critically, customization by the end user, the lab scientist. PLOS welcomes submissions in this field.<br />

'''Open-Labware.net | 3-D print your own lab equipment'''<br />
<br />
The introduction of affordable, consumer-oriented 3-D printers is a milestone in the current “maker movement,” which has been heralded as the next industrial revolution. Combined with free and open sharing of detailed design blueprints and accessible development tools, rapid prototypes of complex products can now be assembled in one’s own garage—a game-changer reminiscent of the early days of personal computing.<br />
<br />
It therefore comes as no surprise that more and more researchers are beginning to integrate the possibilities offered by 3-D printing and off-the-shelf electronics into their own lab routines, be it to modify existing equipment or to build new tools from scratch. The results are typically published under an Open Source licence in online repositories such as thingiverse, instructables or Hack-a-day. More mature projects are often also submitted for publication in international peer reviewed open access outlets such as PLoS, Frontiers, eLife or Nature Communications.<br />

HackteriaLab 2014 is scheduled to be held in April 2014, in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. A number of smaller events, workshops, residencies and exhibitions will prequel the main collaborative lab-phase. It is the fourth edition of an intensive two-week transdisciplinary collaboration amongst international and local artists, hackers, activists, scientists, and designers. HackteriaLab 2014 expands on ideas and methodologies about BioArt, DIY biology, Appropriate Technology, ArtScience and BioHacking, developed during the previous versions of [[HackteriaLab 2011 - Romainmotier]] and [[HackteriaLab 2010 - Dock18/Zürich]] in Switzerland and [[HackteriaLab_2013_-_Bangalore]] in India.<br />
<br />
Within the framework of [http://hackteria.org/ "Hackteria | Open Source Biological Art"], the HackteriaLab immersive format plays a key role in experimentation and the development of new models for knowledge sharing and collaboration building, in the emergent artistic practices related to bio- and nanotechnology and science in general. <br />
<br />
HackteriaLab, our version of a production workshop, is a form of cultural intervention, contributing to the development of our contemporary culture and art milieu. It creates a melting pot of the practices of art and science, of culture and environment. It aims to broaden the intercultural knowledge exchange and realizes this know-how through workshops, participatory prototype exhibitions and online wiki-like documentations.<br />
<br />
HackteriaLab 2014 invites international artists and scientists to collaborate with local communities, which have been intensively working with specific local social and ecological issues in Yogyakarta.<br />
<br />

The programs attached to HLab14 are now organized by Lifepatch in close collaboration with the International Hackteria Society and affiliated with both local and internatioanl collaborators. The program involves field research, participatory art practices, open laboratory, retreats and workshops. Designated final activities are two days of presentation from all makers/participants and an exhibition of selected processes followed by workshops. These two particular activities were chosen because we believe that similar approaches, methods and practices are real and present within all collaborators and participants; opening up an opportunity to meet and exchange for all these people from allover the world and local practitioners would open up the chances and possibilities for future collaborations.<br />

Connecting to local communities. Indonesia is a part of the world where the role and function of the government in citizen’s daily life is non-existing. After 32 years of the ‘silent’ dictatorship of the new order regime and 15 years of reformation, the idea of democracy and how the state should function has not reach a mutual agreement. Even so, ever since the idea of Indonesia was seeded, there have been many initiatives, both by collectives and individuals, that partially plays the roles of the state —starting from organizing themselves, organizing their family, organizing their surroundings, and it gets bigger and bigger. What we now know as DIY (Do-It-Yourself), DIWO (Do-It-With-Others), open-source and all that are nothing new at all. Being citizens, the Indonesians are used to being busy mending things that the government should have done for their citizens.<br />
Lifepatch is a citizen initiative that works in a creative and effective applications in the fields of art, science and technology. In its activities, Lifepatch’s practices focus on the arts and educations in science and technology that are practical and useful for citizens around them. This is done through with the development of creative and innovative practices in technology such as biological technology, environmental technology and digital technology. In practice, Lifepatch enriches the culture emphasizes on the spirit of DIY and DIWO by inviting designated public to be involved, to examine, explore, develop and maximize the function of technology in both the theoretical and practical use to society and culture itself. <br />

<br />
HLab14 is organized such that participants are tapped into an active, operating situation to minimize time loss in initial research and mappings etc. Collaboration with local communities who have knowledge and experience of the problems in the field, will guide the participants to focus what can be developed during the research lab phase in a directed manner. With the communities as a facilitators, we can greatly reduce the needed time in defining the problem.<br />
Instead, HLab14 participants will be immersed into the multitude of the situations on site. This design of HackteriaLab allows participants to respond with their own practice to the newly encountered situation and to share know-how to develop a process for solutions and realisations. As it may be, the experience may translate to an piece of artwork, a philosophical discourse, a hacked camera or tutorial to cleanse the river water before using it to wash clothes,<br />
etc.<br />

<br />
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 traditional 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 is one of the most active hubs in this movement. The proposed project highlights the interests of the hackteria network to develop policies based on awareness-raising. We believe that awareness is essential for consensus building. <br />
<br />
We expect each of the participants subscribe to at least one topic (Ecologic Research Nodes) and work together with facilitators under three main topics tightly<br />
relating to the daily life of Yogyakarta. They are: <br />
# [[Biorecovery of Volcanic Soil]], <br />
# [[Environmental Monitoring of the Rivers in Yogya]], <br />
# [[Biodiversity conservation in Wonosadi Forest]], together with the focus on [[Open Source Hardware]] and [[DIY & Low-Cost Laboratory Infrastructure]]. <br />
<br />
The local communities that have been working intensively with the issues with the local people will participate as facilitators within the framework of HLab14. <br />

<br />
The project will be based on Lifepatch's ongoing study of agricultural microbiology for soil bio-recovery of soil altered by volcanic eruptions. Based on this field research, novel policy suggestions will be made on how workshops can raise community awareness, and applied to other ecology management issues. Additionally we will try to develop new [[DIY & Low-Cost Laboratory Infrastructure]] to enable remote monitoring of the environment up on the volcano mountain.

Wonosadi is one of the last natural forests in Java. This forest is protected by the local villagers in close collaboration with Green Tech Community. The node aims to document the diversity in the forest, along with narratives and knowledge from the local villagers.

=== >> [[Art Practices]] ===<br />
<br />
Mutual interdisciplinary collaborations are not easy to find nowadays. In the context of art and science, a project either benefits only the artist(s) or only the scientist(s). It is not unusual that these practices tends to appear in a way that one discipline is exploiting the other. These kind of projects then have minimum level of sustainability because in the end only one aspect of the collaboration that could use the result/product/object. <br />
<br />
HLab14's participants are challenged to redefine and try out how an artistic practice can support social innovation, cultural shifts, change and at the same time able to be positioned in its own discipline.<br />

How can we set-up a simple DIY laboratory in a low-resource setting or even in the forest without electricity? Which tools and infrastructure we have to make ourselves, how hack custom household devices to use as laboratory equipment, design simple electronics for control and monitoring of biolab protocolls? The Researcher-in-Residence, '''[http://hackteria.org/?p=12 Marc Dusseiller aka dusjagr]''', together with various participants will look into these topics in the preparation phase and go out into the wild for field-testing during the main HLab14. We focus on various projects of OSH for environmental sensing, water monitoring and co-organize local workshops pre and during the HLab14.<br />

== Background of Collaboration ==<br />
Since our participation at [http://hackteria.org/?p=67 Cellsbutton#03 in 2009], we have very actively collaborated with various initiatives in and around Yogyakarta. We also worked together on projects and workshops about [http://hackteria.org/?p=1637 microscopy], [http://lifepatch.org/IB:SC fermentation] and other [http://hackteria.org/?p=1222 playful biological experimentations] across the globe and had active participants from the [http://lifepatch.org/ lifepatch community] joining both [[HackteriaLab 2011 - Romainmotier]] and [[HackteriaLab_2013_-_Bangalore]]. Our collaborations are described on the [http://hackteria.org/?p=1985 hackteria website] and the [http://lifepatch.org/hackteria lifepatch wiki].<br />
<br />
As partners in the Hackteria network, [http://lifepatch.org/ Lifepatch] has been a most active node and contributor in citizen-science and artistic works at the art/sci interface, especially with their award-winning microbial [http://lifepatch.org/IB:SC fermentation project] applied to agriculture and wine-making in Yogyakarta. As a platform for knowledge sharing and artistic exploration, Hackteria constitutes a network of artists and researchers that merge the use of life sciences with artistic interpretations, hacking and do-it-yourself strategies. Since 2010 the network met regularly and gathered in Switzerland in 2010 & 2011, where the Asia-European collaborations have intensified, including co-organization and active participation at HackteriaLab 2013 - Bangalore (IN). [http://hackteria.org/?cat=7 Workshops] within this network have been held in more than 20 countries since 2009.<br />

== Yogyakarta ==<br />
Yogyakarta (English: /ˌjɒɡjəˈkɑrtə/ or /ˌjoʊɡjəˈkɑrtə/, Malay: [jɔɡjaˈkarta]; also Jogja, Jogjakarta) is a city and the capital of Yogyakarta Special Region in Java, Indonesia. It is renowned as a centre of classical Javanese fine art and culture such as batik, ballet, drama, music, poetry, and puppet shows. Yogyakarta was the Indonesian capital during the Indonesian National Revolution from 1945 to 1949. One of the districts in Yogyakarta, Kotagede, was the capital of Mataram Sultanate between 1575 and 1640. The city is named after the Indian city of Ayodhya from the Ramayana epic. Yogya means 'suitable, fit, proper', and karta, 'prosperous, flourishing' (i.e., 'a city that is fit to prosper'). - taken from [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yogyakarta Wikipedia]]<br />
<br />
As a central city of education in Indonesia, Yogyakarta is a destination for students from every location in Indonesia to pursue higher education. Yogyakarta offers high quality of education and affordable daily living cost. These condition made Yogyakarta suitable for wide range creative communities activities.<br />

<br />
Hackteria is a collection of Open Source Biological Art Projects instigated in February 2009 by Andy Gracie, Marc Dusseiller and Yashas Shetty, after collaboration during the Interactivos?09 Garage Science at Medialab Prado in Madrid. The aim of the project is to develop a rich web resource for people interested in or developing<br />
projects that involve DIY bioart, open source software and electronic experimentation. As a community platform hackteria tries to encourage the collaboration of scientists, hackers and artists to combine their expertise, write critical and theoretical reflections, share simple instructions to work with lifescience technologies and cooperate on the organization of workshops, festival and meetings.Since 2009, Hackteria has conducted workshops in Europe (Switzerland, Slovenia, Norway, Austria, Hungary, Serbia, United Kingdom, Germany) , Asia (India, Indonesia, Taiwan, Hong Kong), Africa (Kenya) and North America (US, Canada).<br />

==International Partners==<br />
<br />
Through informal collaborations with our large group of affiliated partners, who will be involved in bringing participants to the HackteriaLab, we are aiming at opportunities, that they bring back the learned experiences and seed similar initiatives of community based art/sci activities. The broad foundation of our network (from India to Slovenia or Nepal to the Netherlands) can thus help redefining cross-cultural collaborations, meaning both crossing economic and cultural borders, as well as disciplinary borders of scientists, activists, educators and artists.<br />

<br />
=== Bumi Pemuda Rahayu – BPR ===<br />
<br />
Bumi Pemuda Rahayu Arts Centre aims to support a vision of environmental sustainability within the arts on a practical and theoretical level. Architecturally the site itself is built on a model of self-sustainability, using various methods to approach minimum carbon footprint. All the materials used have been chosen for its lowest impact on energy, using recycled materials with the main building itself made from bamboo. All its waste will be recycled or composted, with specially designed human waste recycling plant to generate electrical power. The garden has been planned to be completely edible. <br />
<br />
Aside from its architectural and environmental focus the other important aim is to support the local community. People from the local area were invited to be an integral part of this centre and have already been employed to help build the structures, including the main bamboo multipurpose hall. They have been given training to acquire new skills from master bamboo builders and expert architects and landscape designers. <br />
<br />
Bumi Pemuda Rahayu is located in the Village of Dlingo and participants of Hackteria Lab are asked to respect the local rules and culture.

== First Experiments, Theremin QCM - heterodyning ! ==<br />
<br />
See a video here: https://instagram.com/p/2WEet6Gak6/<br />
<br />
[[File:IMG_20150506_163818.jpg|400px]]<br />
<br />
The software we used to measure the frequency in earlier experiments, also the same as the OpenQCM, is using the [https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_FreqCount.html FreqCount Library], although it's working very well, the measurement to count the frequency takes... 1 sec! so the data upgrade rate is pretty slow.<br />
<br />
Using the [http://www.gaudi.ch/OpenTheremin/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=103&Itemid=93 Open Theremin] circuit we can massively improve that data reading rate by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterodyne heterodyining], also called frequency conversion, the oscillator frequency with another fixed oscillator, creating a very low frequency, which is first of all audible! and also much faster to read by using the [https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_FreqMeasure.html FreqMeasure Library from pjrc].<br />
<br />
One issue with the current code (just using the example from the library with serialWrite) is that the data update speed is still depending on the measured frequency. we are measuring 1 single phaselenght (msec) and averaging 30 times. so at around 500Hz the data speed is approx 15 datapoints/sec. this can easily be improved by adding a timing code to the software and optimized by using a smaller averaging speed for faster read-outs.<br />
<br />
Instead of the Theremin circuit this [http://bertrik.sikken.nl/bat/ne612het.htm heterodying and mixing/amplification circuit] from a bat detector should do the trick. Instead of the 4046 oscillator we could also try to use another crystal oscillator, but i don't know how to tune the frequency of such.<br />

[[File:IMG_20150508_182000.jpg|400px]]<br />
<br />
* deionized water<br />
* Ethanol<br />
* 10mM PBS + 1% albumin<br />
* diluted 10x, 100x of PBS-albumin<br />
* dusjagr's pee<br />
<br />
The first results were still very noisy, but interesting. The flow chamber seems to work and is water tight. But where does the noise come from?<br />
<br />
'''Plugging it in!'''<br />
<br />
Just by pluggin in the arduino to an external 12V power supply we completely removed the noise. Supply voltage stability seems to be key!!!<br />
<br />
The readout range dislayed in the pics below is about 100Hz readout from the theremin circuit using the [https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_FreqMeasure.html FreqMeasure Library from pjrc], sending the data via arduino to dusjagr's puredata patch.<br />

<br />
What is happening here? Hmmm difficult to say. The readouts are very clear, but we might follow quite unspecific surface reactions between the water and the crystal surface / silver electrodes.<br />

<br />
A fibre optic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor system for<br />
smartphones is reported, for the first time. The sensor was fabricated by<br />
using an easy-to-implement silver coating technique and by polishing both<br />
ends of a 400 µm optical fibre to obtain 45° end-faces. For excitation and<br />
interrogation of the SPR sensor system the flash-light and camera at the<br />
back side of the smartphone were employed, respectively. Consequently, no<br />
external electrical components are required for the operation of the sensor<br />
system developed. In a first application example a refractive index sensor<br />
was realised. The performance of the SPR sensor system was demonstrated<br />
by using different volume concentrations of glycerol solution. A sensitivity<br />
of 5.96·10−4 refractive index units (RIU)/pixel was obtained for a refractive<br />
index (RI) range from 1.33 to 1.36. In future implementations the reported<br />
sensor system could be integrated in a cover of a smartphone or used as a<br />
low-cost, portable point-of-care diagnostic platform. Consequently it offers<br />
the potential of monitoring a large variety of environmental or point-of-care<br />
parameters in combination with smartphones. <br />

"QCM could be used as a tunable gas sensor and for monitoring the aerosol deposition in ambient conditions. The applications in liquid environment show enormous potentiality. QCM is very effective in measuring binding events on functionalized surface, such as antigen-antibody binding and protein-protein interactions. It is a powerful tool in life sciences, being able to sense DNA hybridization and specific drug compounds."<br><br><br />

<br />
Attaching the Quartz-crystal oscillator to the [http://www.gaudi.ch/OpenTheremin/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=103&Itemid=93 Open Theremin] to make the measurements audible and much faster frequency read-out.<br />

== First Experiments, Theremin QCM - heterodyning ! ==<br />
<br />
See a video here: https://instagram.com/p/2WEet6Gak6/<br />
<br />
[[File:IMG_20150506_163818.jpg|400px]]<br />
<br />
The software we used to measure the frequency in earlier experiments, also the same as the OpenQCM, is using the [https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_FreqCount.html FreqCount Library], although it's working very well, the measurement to count the frequency takes... 1 sec! so the data upgrade rate is pretty slow.<br />
<br />
Using the [http://www.gaudi.ch/OpenTheremin/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=103&Itemid=93 Open Theremin] circuit we can massively improve that data reading rate by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterodyne heterodyining], also called frequency conversion, the oscillator frequency with another fixed oscillator, creating a very low frequency, which is first of all audible! and also much faster to read by using the [https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_FreqMeasure.html FreqMeasure Library from pjrc].<br />
<br />
One issue with the current code (just using the example from the library with serialWrite) is that the data update speed is still depending on the measured frequency. we are measuring 1 single phaselenght (msec) and averaging 30 times. so at around 500Hz the data speed is approx 15 datapoints/sec. this can easily be improved by adding a timing code to the software and optimized by using a smaller averaging speed for faster read-outs.<br />
<br />
Instead of the Theremin circuit this [http://bertrik.sikken.nl/bat/ne612het.htm heterodying and mixing/amplification circuit] from a bat detector should do the trick. Instead of the 4046 oscillator we could also try to use another crystal oscillator, but i don't know how to tune the frequency of such.<br />
<br />
== Muuuuuch better with stable power supply ==<br />
<br />

<br />
=== New Setup and experiments ===<br />
With the new setup we could finally make some more controlled experiments. We played around with the following liquids:<br />
<br />

<br />

<br />
Just by pluggin in the arduino to an external 12V power supply we completely removed the noise. Supply voltage stability seems to be key!!!<br />
<br />
The readout range dislayed in the pics below is about 100Hz readout from the theremin circuit using the [https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_FreqMeasure.html FreqMeasure Library from pjrc], sending the data via arduino to dusjagr's puredata patch.<br />

<div>== Overview ==<br />
Co-Development of a workshop on DIY laboratory instruments for bioanalytics, colorimetry, low-cost microcontrollers and simple DIY electronics, enzymatic assays. With a concept of "teach the teachers", we are looking into DIY lab-tools as means of a pedagogic tool for interdisciplinary thinking at the biomedical/engineering/molecular interface. Coproduced with SATW, Swiss Academy of Technical Sciences, Hackteria and FHNW, School for Lifesciences.<br />
<br />
Unsere moderne Gesellschaft ist ohne Technologien nicht denkbar. Viele dieser Technologien werden nicht oder ungenügend verstanden. Eine eigene Urteilsbildung wird dadurch schwierig. Dies gilt auch für bioanalytische Methoden, welche heute in den unterschiedlichsten Bereichen eingesetzt werden. Es können chemische Substanzen, biologische Marker oder Gene in Lebensmitteln, der Umwelt oder in Flüssigkeiten und Geweben des menschlichen Körpers nachgewiesen werden. Die gemessenen Daten und deren Interpretation können für den einzelnen Menschen oder die Gesellschaft wichtig sein. Die Funktionsweise und Anwendungsmöglichkeiten dieser Geräte sind für Nichtspezialisten eine "black box". Wir möchten gerne das Verständnis für bioanalytische Messungen und Auswertungen nach dem Motto "bauen - messen - verstehen - reflektieren - vertrauen" verbessern. Im Rahmen dieses Projektes soll ein Workshop entwickelt und als Pilot mit interessierten Hochschuldozierenden (teach-the-teacher) durchgeführt werden.<br />
<br />
Das Projekt wurde gefördert durch [http://www.satw.ch/projekte/projekte/laborgeraete/index SATW], Schweizerische Akademie der Technischen Wissenschaften.<br />
<br />
===Participants:===<br />
A very interesting and interdisciplinary group of participants has already come together, from various schools in Switzerland, from engineering, life science and design.<br />
<br />
===Goal:===<br />
The goal of the workshop is to collaboratively develop further the educational concept of the Do-It-Yourself method for student training, document our experience and reflections as an educational guideline and hopefully co-develop an interesting summer (or winter) school concept to be held in 2015/16 in different universities.<br />
<br />
===Dissemination:===<br />
We will have the opportunity that the output of our workshop will be published in the SATW News online publication and sent to their large network.<br />
<br />
=== Working paper: ===<br />
A first version of our experience and a "Vademecum" has been written and will be continously developed further during future experiences.<br />

=== Protein Phosphatase Assay ===<br />
<br />
The p-Nitrophenyl Phosphate phosphatase activity assay is very simple, non-expensive, and routinely used for the unit determination of all NEB protein phosphatases.<br><br />
<br><br />
The PNPP phosphatase activity is assayed in a reaction mixture (50 μl) containing 50 mM PNPP and a protein phosphatase buffer supplemented with additional components when required (PH Buffer?). The reaction is initiated by addition of enzyme (and quenched after 5-10 minutes by addition of 1 ml of 1 N NaOH). The amount of product, p-nitrophenol, is determined by reading the absorbance at 405 nm and using a molar extinction coefficient of 18,000 M-1 cm-1 (16,000 M-1cm-1 for 0.5 M EDTA) (1, 3). <br><br />
<br />
=== Beer-Lambert law ===<br />
<br><br />
To determine the amount of product of the reaction the absorbance of light at 405 nm is determined (the liquid turn yellow).<br><br />
The full measurement path look as follows:<br><br />
<br><br />
Battery - Light emiting Diod - Light beam - Test cuvette with assay - light sensor - Measurement Unit - Read Out - Human Operator<br><br />
<br><br />
The Absorbance in the test cuvette with assay can be described by the Beer-Lambert law:<br><br />
<br><br />
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer%E2%80%93Lambert_law<br />
<br />
Absorbance (I = Intensity of Radiation, ε = Absorption coefficient [M-1cm-1], c = concentration [M] d = Cell length [cm])<br><br />
A = - log10 (I0 / I)<br><br />
A = ε * c * d<br><br />

=== Color and Beer===<br />
Color and Alcohol <br />
<br />
You all know that there are different colors of beer, dark and light, but you might not know that it is an indicator of something, and an important measurement in q.c. for industrial beer production.<br />
The Degrees lovibond scale was invented by brewer Joseph WIlliams Lovibond who developed the first worlds first practical coloromiter<br />
Originally a sight only technique, it is now determined by spectroscopy at 430nm (uv/blue) the absorbance of This yellow comes as the result of a number of reactions, notably the Maillard (or browning reaction)<br />

=== Meeting Minutes ===<br />
Notes by Urs Gaudenz, please complete or correct if needed<br />
<b>Goals:</b><br />
* Student Centered Learning<br />
* Foster Interdisciplinary Collaborations in Nanobiotechnology<br />
* Bring Educational Concept of “DIY-Lab” in Institutions<br />
* Teaching Creativity<br />
<br />
<b>Potential Collaborations </b><br />
* Working with non-Institutional Partners from the Do It You Self (DIY) Community, the biohacking communities (hackteria.org) and open researchers (GaudiLabs)<br />
* Student Workshops in dedicated lectures during the Semester<br />
* Specific Summer School at different universities.<br />
* Creating a Community of Practice across Institutions in Switerland.<br />
<br />
<b> Common Language </b><br><br />
Go back to basic, start from scratch, explaining concepts of electronics and enzymes in universal language.<br />
In the old times most scientists had to build their own lab equipment. In biology there is a big industry that builds sophisticated devices. More and more Scientists just “press buttons” on complex machines.<br />
“If you don’t build your lab you don’t own your lab.”<br />
<br />
“If you can’t open it you don’t own it”<br />
<br><br />
Examples for terminology that are discussed differently in different disciplines (e.g. physics, engineering, biotechnology) :<br />
* Optical Spectrometer<br />
* Absorption<br />
* Turbidity<br />
* Optical Density<br />
* Volts<br />
* Substrate<br />
* Assay<br />
* Design<br />
These are crucial discussions which enable communication across disciplinary boundaries. <br><br />
Student Centered means involve people.<br><br />
<br><br />
<b>The other thing is the Kit</b><br><br />
Allow tinkering, playful approach, use your creativity, Hand’s On. <br />
The kit is a starting point to creatively work. It provides materials that are characteristic for a discipline. The materials also embody discipline-specific knowledge. (eg. easy to sterilize, imprinted scales and units, typical smell and color, iconic objects (blue LED, petri dish)<br><br />
<br><br />
<b>Background of Maker and Biohacker Commmunity</b><br />
Several years of Do It You Self Electronics and Biology Movement. <br><br />
At the moment the DIY and Makers get big attention, influence on public outreach, artistic practice, engineering, academics. <br><br />
Radical Transdisciplinary Practice <br><br />
Hackteria.org approach: Synthetic Biology, Genetics can be approached by making cheese, Build Microscopes <br><br />
Swiss Mechatronic Art Society (SGMK)<br><br />
New formats of collaboration: Workshop, Festivals, Hackaton, Sprints, Seances, Hang-Outs<br><br />
Institute of Making, Prototyping, Library of Materials <br><br />
Sharing Knowledge, make a new fundament for industries and research.<br><br><br />
Examples of DIY devices (little Exibition):<br />
* Microscopes<br />
* Gel Electrophoresis Box with high voltage supply<br />
* Electronic Force Microscope<br />
* DIY Nano-Drop<br />
* CD player syringe pump<br />

<br><br />
=== Feedback ===<br />
<b>Laura (new to electronics, background biotechnology):</b><br><br />
Great to be Hand’s On <br><br />
Very good to see how these machines work. <br><br />
Good to have people around to ask. <br><br />
Very well done. <br><br />
Will I get lost with many people? <br><br />
It would help: <br><br />
See a Schaltkreis, draw Schematic -> mix of experimental and theory. <br><br />
Go through standard formulas. <br><br />
Good to get the Background of a Measurement. <br><br />
Playing around I liked very much. <br><br />
Did like the Kit / not complete + big box / you have your own stuff and can get more from the box. <br><br />
With no kit, people don’t know where to start. <br><br />
The integration is the point. <br><br />
<br><br />
<b>Brian (Bioartist, biotech backround):</b><br><br />
I am still new to making. <br><br />
Good to investigate things with your hands. <br><br />
I personally worked on different wavelength during the workshop. It is good to understand a little bit more of what you are doing.<br><br />
I still try to find a nice reaction.<br><br />
Talking about color of the beer. (Kafi Schnapps detector)<br><br />
<br><br />
<b>Marc (Biohacker, background material science):</b><br><br />
<br />
I liked to see some visitors<br><br />
I missed the biological part. <br><br />
We all did electronics.<br><br />
Would like to see that we all do the bio all together.<br><br />
The thing with the color: Talk about the spectral composition of the light.<br><br />
Fundamental to understand is to know about absorption of light. <br><br />
Working longer on the background, creating the learning experience.<br><br />
Suggestion for the laser kit: bigger bottom layer.<br><br />
How much time? Available 15 h = 1 credit. In 3 Days (3 x 5h)<br><br />
Good to have this critical thinking.<br><br />
<br><br />
<br />
<b>Andreas (Student biotechnology):</b><br><br />
Favorite part: Basteln, creat your own setup, being creative.<br><br />
I prefer to work with wires not with breadboard. (Wiggle)<br><br />
Giving bio part of workshop was special. Was not sure on what to prepare. Point out what you need. <br><br />
<br><br />
<br />
<b>Eric (senior biotechnology):</b><br><br />
It is important to show that you can do it at home in your kitchen.<br><br />
Do it your self (DIY) the electronic part.<br><br />
You should be able to do it at home.<br><br />
I suggest to keep the breadboard. <br><br />
For me being creative does not mean being messy.<br><br />
I first make a prototype and then I think on how to bring it in a format that fits the application?<br><br />
Let the approaches open.<br><br />
Theory: being more aware of biology. How is light converted. You should have a better understanding? <br><br />
<br><br />
<b>Urs (founder of GaudiLabs, engineer)</b><br><br />
I liked to have a common topic and choose different ways of approach it.<br><br />
Exchange is important, discussions as well as the little things that happen in between.<br><br />
Do it together, be proactive in creating the learning environment, contribute, Like a common arranged Swedish buffet.<br><br />
Give and take. Integration is the focus.<br><br />
<br><br />
<b>Daniel (SATW, background biotechnology):</b><br><br />
I like the technical electronic part. Reminds me of youth. Play with kits. <br><br />
Was curious to see how the two parts (electronics and bio) fit together. With isolated enzyme. <br><br />
Lot of things to optimize. <br><br />
Students can learn a lot by doing. <br><br />
<br><br />

== A final Quote ==<br />
<br />
''"There is a growing realization that innovation processes do not automatically follow from the results of research, whatever their potential may be. The “linear model,” which foresees that basic research will somehow find its way to being transferred or translated into applied research, which will in turn later appear on the market in the form of commercially viable products or processes, appears as an idealized version of what happened in a given historical period, namely, after World War II. Nor can today’s innovation processes be left to entrepreneurs alone, however strong their “restlessness” (in a Schumpeterian sense) may be. The omnipresent quest for innovation, caught up as it has been in a globalized world, is a hybrid of many elements. It includes the availability of venture capital, and the creativity of determined individuals as much as the flexibility of institutions and regulatory processes"''.<br />

== Hintergrund ==<br />
[[File:Notes_on_TempLab_pei.jpg|300px|thumb|Planung des Läb(e) am Egge]]<br />
Das Projekt «Läb(e) am Egge» untersucht seit Sommer 2014 biologisches Licht von Tieren, Pflanzen und Bakterien. Mit einfachen Mitteln haben wir in unserem Studio ein Labor mit Mikroskop und den notwendigsten Utensilien und Chemikalien eingerichtet und begannen biolumineszierende Pilze und Bakterien zu züchten, um sie nach unseren Vorstellungen wachsen zu lassen.<br />
<br />
Die Untersuchungen, Recherchen, Experimente und deren Ergebnisse veröffentlichen wir fortlaufend auf der folgender Webseite<br />
* http://hackteria.org/wiki/Explorations_in_BioLuminescence<br />
<br />
In Zusammenarbeit mit Stefan Wagner vom Corner College und der Gruppe Hackteria ist im Vorfeld eine Talk/Präsentations - Reihe, «[[HSC]] - Hackteria Swiss Curriculum» entstanden, die seit Mai 2014 einmal monatlich stattfindet. [[HSC]] ist ein Diskussions-Format mit dem Ziel eine öffentliche Diskussion über verschiedene Aspekte von Bio art | Wissenschaft | Technologie und verwandte Praktiken zu führen. <br />
* http://www.corner-college.com/Archiv/48 <br />
* http://hackteria.org/wiki/HSC<br />
<br />
Das «Läb(e) am Egge» ist aus dieser Reihe hervorgegangen, will aber zur diskursiven Ebene mit einem längeren Zeitrahmen auch einen Fokus auf praktische Labortätigkeit und konkretes Experimentieren legen.<br />
<br />
== Überblick ==<br />
[[File:Andi_Holz.jpg|300px|thumb|Andreas experimentiert mit gefundenem Holz]]<br />
Vom 20. - 26. Oktober werden wir für eine Woche im Corner College Zürich ein „Bio-Labor“ einrichten und betreiben. Unsere öffentlich zugänglichen Laborexperimente werden ergänzt mit Präsentationen, Talks und Workshops von eingeladenen Gästen und Kollaborationen. (Siehe Programm.)<br />
<br />
Dabei geht es uns darum verschiedene Professionen zusammen zu bringen. Das Kern Team besteht bereits aus KünstlerInnen, IngenieurInnen, BiotechnikerInnen und wir möchten dazu weitere Positionen und Blickwinkel ermöglichen. Wir lassen Kunst, Wissenschaft, neue Technologien und Geschichte aufeinander treffen und schauen was bei der Auseinandersetzung entsteht.<br />
<br />
Mit Biolumineszenz wollen wir Licht in die, für viele verborgene, Laborwelt bringen. „Open source“, „Do it your self“, „Do it with others“ sind unsere Werkzeuge, um einen kritischen Blick auf die heutige Abhängigkeit von Pharma- und Chemieindustrie zu werfen.<br />
<br />
Es wird ersichtlich werden, was für Infrastruktur benötigt wird, um ein minimales oder temporäres Labor zu betreiben. Schon mit geringem Aufwand ist vieles möglich und man kann mit entsprechendem Know-How einiges davon selbst bauen.<br />
<br />
Ein ebenso zentraler Teil werden Phenomene sein, die in unserer Kultur beinahe in vergessenheit geraten sind. Bei vielen Leuten, wie auch bei uns, liess der Begriff Biolumineszenz zuerst an Leuchtkäfer und Tiere aus der Tiefsee denken. Dass aber auch Holz in unseren Wäldern leuchten kann ist vielen nicht bekannt.<br />

In collaboration with artists and technologists, he uses scientific and open source methodologies to explore diverse research areas such as bacterial cultivation and fermentation, accessible science technology, aquatic ecologies and open source science. In his home town of Newcastle-Upon-Tyne with a small group of geeks, Brian set up Newcastle Maker Space, a place for creative use of technology.<br />

*Viele Sachen, die man in der Küche oder in der Natur findet (wie Pfefferminztee, Curry oder Eierschalen), fluoreszieren nämlich im UV-Licht. Wir werden mit Naturstoffen experimentieren und sie zum Leuchten bringen! Stellt man zum Beispiel einen Zweig der Rosskastanie in Wasser, so fliesst aus der Rinde Aesculin heraus, welches bei Bestrahlung mit UV-Licht stark blau leuchtet. Und mit ein wenig Chemie löst sich aus braunen Eierschalen ein Farbstoff, den man im UV-Licht rot leuchten sieht.<br />

Paula Pin is Transhackfeminist performer and researcher. Graduated in Fine Arts from Barcelona and Sao Paolo, Her work ranges from drawing to abstract video to circuit bending to investigations at the frontiers of biology, art and queer science. Her performance piece Medusa from 2010 mixes mythology, ecology and criticism of consumer culture while Udre from 2009, is an automatic drawing machine created from an old umbrella and an Arduino. In 2011 she was awarded a grant from Vida to develop her Photosinthetik Symphony – data from sensors attached to plants and her own body generate sound in a program created in Pure Data. In 2012 she was invited to a residence in Nuvem, a rural art centre in Brasil, to develop her work, focusing especially on photosynthesis. In parallel she creates home made synthesizers, gives workshops, and investigates the practice of noise. The work of Paula Pin blurs the distinctions between machine, animal and plant, and opens up new horizons in the performance of the lab. At present she setup, co-habitats and works with Klau and Julito in the transhackfeminsit hardlab of bio-electro-chemical experimentation, Pechblenda, where they continue generating knowledge and technological autonomy. Across disciplines they wish to enter fully into the matter of a multiple body, be it organic, artificial or fusion of both.<br />

'''Thematischer Hintergrund'''<br />
<br />
„Wer jemals in einer warmen Juninacht die Johanniskäferchen gleich lebenden Irrlichtern durch die Lüfte huschen sah, wer im finsteren Walde einmal einem faulenden leuchtenden Baumstumpf begegnete, wer zum ersten Male im finsteren Keller leuchtendes Fleisch gesehen oder sich an dem herrlichen Schauspiele des Meer-leuchtens ergötzt hat, der wird die geheimnisvolle, zauberhafte Wirkung, die das Licht der Lebewesen auf den Menschen seit jeher ausgeübt hat, gewiß an sich verspürt haben.“<br />
Zitat aus „Populäre biologische Vorträge“ Professor Hans Molisch - „Das Leuchten der Pflanzen“ 1906.<br />
<br />
'''Phototaxis Of Human Beings'''<br />
<br />
Phototaxis ist eine Art von Taxis, oder motorischer Bewegung eines Organismus, der sich zu einem Lichtreiz hin, oder sich von diesem weg bewegt. Der Begriff wird meistens in bezug auf Tiere, Pflanzen, Mikroorganismen und weniger auf den Menschen angewendet. Wir denken aber, dass er auch ganz gut auf Menschliche Eigenarten zutrifft. Zum Beispiel auf seine Faszination für Lämpchen, Lichterketten, Kerzenmeer, Feuerwerk etc. An grossen Festanlässen kann man verschiedensten Leucht-Accessoires begegnen. Die Wunderkerze ist da schon lange kein Einzelfall mehr. Neonfarbene Knicklichter, leuchtende Brillen, Fingerringe, Anhänger, farbwechselnde LED-Schnürsenkel, LED-Fallschirmchen etc. schwirren durch die dunkle Nacht. Und dies in einer Üppigkeit, dass man sich bald fragt: „Warum zum Teufel muss eigentlich immer alles leuchten?“<br />
<br />
'''Experimente / Recherchen / Literatur / Forschung'''<br />
<br />
Als Ausgangsmaterial für die «Läb(e) am Egge» - Week im Oktober dienen uns diverse Recherchen und Experimente die wir gemacht haben.<br />
<br />
Leuchtendes Holz ist ein Phänomen, das durch einen biolumineszierenden Pilz verursacht wird. Einer davon ist Armillaria und ist in den Schweizer Wäldern weit verbreitet. Nachdem wir durch einen bekannten das erste mal von leuchtendem Holz gehört hatten, versuchten wir es selbst aufzufinden. Wir begannen Vorkommen, Fundorte, Holzarten, Verhalten etc. zu dokumentierten.<br />
In einem weiteren Schritt versuchten wir das Myzel des Pilzes auf Agar-Medien in Reinkultur zu züchten.<br />

'''Hackteria: An example of neomodern activism. Leonardo Online 2013, Boris Magrini'''<br />
<br />
[[:File:LeaVol20No1_-Magrini.pdf]]<br />

<br />
As a platform for knowledge sharing and artistic exploration, Hackteria constitutes a network of artists and researchers that merge the use of biotechnologies with hacking and do-it-yourself strategies. Its process-oriented and performative approaches, opposing to the materialistic imperatives of the art market, lean to the tradition of political art. In the present paper, I am arguing that Hackteria embodies what could be considered a neomodern activism, other recent examples of which are emerging within the new media art field. Instead of rejecting new controversial technologies, they propose a vision of a society that is moved forward by a more democratic use and discussion of these technologies. The activities of Hackteria are examined through the presentation of a bio-lab created in Ljubljana. <br />
<br />
The roots of Hackteria: from performative art to tactical media. <br />
<br />
The events organized by Hackteria are rooted in a long tradition of media art, as well as process-oriented and performative approaches. Performative art is not equivalent to process-oriented art; as Andreas Broeckmann correctly pointed out, “it only makes sense to speak of process-orientation in cases where the evolving process itself is a main factor of the aesthetic experience of the work.” [4] Nonetheless, neither performative nor process-oriented art focus on the creation of a finite product, a distinctive trait of the activities run by Hackteria. Furthermore, the BioTehna project, for example, share both performative, interactive and process-oriented qualities, for it is not the lab as such that is meaningful to the artistic intent of the group but rather the process involved in building and running it. <br />

„... Bakterien kultivieren und mit Gentechnik experimentieren: Das geht auch im Heimlabor, nennt sich Amateur-Biologen bauen selber Laborinstrumente und träumen von leuchtenden Pflanzen. Einige auch vom grossen Geld. <br />
<br />
DER ERSTE VERSUCH des Experiments ist fehlgeschlagen. Marc, Tuuli und Urs hatten verschiedene Fische gekauft, in Salzwasser eingelegt und einige Tage liegen gelassen. Nun sollten sich eigentlich die biolumineszierenden Bakterien auf dem Fisch vermehren, sodass man ihr Leuchten im Dunkeln erkennt. Die Bakterien sollten dann in einer Nährlösung aus Salzwasser, Pepton und Agar kultivieren. Doch nun muss erst einmal neuer Fisch her. Experimentieren im Heimlabor braucht Geduld. Marc, Urs und Tuuli sind Biohacker und damit Teil einer Bewegung, die die Welt ähnlich verändern könnte, wie in den 70er-Jahren die Computer-Tüftler mit der Entwicklung des PC in der Garage. Das zumindest glauben euphorische Journalisten und Technik-enthusiastische Wissenschafter. So meinte etwa der Physiker und Freidenker Freeman Dyson 2007 in einem Essay, «dass die domestizierte Biotechnologie unser Leben in den nächsten 50 Jahren mindestens so stark prägen werde, wie die Domestizierung des Computers in den letzten 50 Jahren». - ...„<br />

* Six easy do-it-yourself experimental projects<br />
* For biotechnology and electronics do-it-yourself enthusiasts<br />
<br />
“Science for all” is the motto of a new movement which deals with biology and electronics. It applies the do-it-yourself approach, well established in the electronic and computer scene, to natural sciences. Here the boundaries between the arts and sciences are fluid. The artists and scientists who work together in an interdisciplinary manner call themselves “bio-hackers” or “bio-punks” and deliberately continue in the creative tradition of those two movements. Their research is designed to communicate scientific insights which are otherwise reserved for scientists. Home Made Bio Electronic Arts introduces leading exponents and presents six easy do-it-yourself experimental projects.<br />

„... On the global stage biohacking collective Hackteria has lead the way on demystifing bioart and providing people with easy practical ways to engage with it. Formed in 2009 and featuring chapters in Europe, India and Indonesia the Hackteria Wikipedia has become the de-facto resource for all budding biohackers. The interplay between biohacking and bioart is particularly fluid among Hackteria affiliated practitioners. “Hackteria is not, generally speaking, about finished products or finished works. The bioart just happens, but is not the primary goal” said Hackteria co-founder Marc Dusseiller. Some of that 'incidental bioart' has been quite sublime. -....“<br />
<br />
„...The Hackteria flavour of bioart and biotech education is particularly visible in Indonesia, where sister organisation Lifepatch complements the bioart residencies hosted by media-art lab the House of Natural Fiber (HONF), helping underfunded school students with such ingenious hacks as converting a webcam into a functioning microscope. At HONF in 2010, Julian Abraham and others initiated a project aimed at creating a safe form of fermentation based on tropical fruit, after the Indonesian government raised prohibitively high duties on alcohol. After leaving HONF, Abraham continued the theme, creating sound-based bioart pieces under the name Kapitän Biopunk. He provided workshops in homebrewing alcohol to accompany his Fermentation Madness, a sound-art piece that converts the processes of fermentation into an interactive soundscape. -....“<br />

'''European do-it-yourself (DIY) biology: Beyond the hope, hype and horror, Günter Seyfried et. al. BioEssays, Volume 36, Issue 6, June 2014'''<br />
<br />
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/bies.201300149/full<br />
<br />
The encounter of amateur science with synthetic biology has led to the formation of several amateur/do-it-yourself biology (DIYBio) groups worldwide. Although media outlets covered DIYBio events, most seemed only to highlight the hope, hype, and horror of what DIYBio would do in the future. Here, we analyze the European amateur biology movement to find out who they are, what they aim for and how they differ from US groups. We found that all groups are driven by a core leadership of (semi-)professional people who struggle with finding lab space and equipment. Regulations on genetic modification limit what groups can do. Differences between Europe and the US are found in the distinct regulatory environments and the European emphasis on bio-art. We conclude that DIYBio Europe has so far been a responsible and transparent citizen science movement with a solid user base that will continue to grow irrespective of media attention.<br />
<br />
Comparison between European and North American groups<br />
<br />
The DIYBio movements in the US and Europe have a lot in common. Beliefs in the democratization of science and the enabling of citizens to do biotechnology are shared by all groups on both sides of the Atlantic. In general, they have more in common than what sets them apart. However, there also seems to be aspects where the groups in the US and Europe differ from one another.<br />
<br />
In contrast to the USA (minding different state legislations), the groups in Europe need to obtain a license in order to carry out genetic engineering experiments. So far, the European groups have not done these types of experiments, but some of them plan to go through the licensing procedure and obtain a license. As an exception, the UK-Netherlands based C-LAB art collective did obtain a license to exhibit a bioart work with living genetically modified organisms in London, UK (http://c-lab.co.uk/projects.html). The work itself, however, was done in collaboration with a university research lab.<br />
<br />
A rather surprising finding, compared to the US, is a stronger collaboration of amateur biologists with artists and designers in Europe. It remains to be seen whether this observation is only due to the small sample size of groups, or if the art-science interaction is a real European characteristic.<br />

''B. Ueber das Leuchten von Würsten''<br />
<br />
Ueber diesen Gengenstand finden sich in der Literatur nur wenige brauchbare Nachrichten. Das Beste darüber verdanken wir Heller (1). Er erhielt im Winter 1852 in Wien von dem Sanitätsmagister Dr. Stuhlberger mehrere Würste, welche die Polizeibehörde deshalb in einem Verkaufsgewölbe konfiszieren liess, weil die Würste durch ein sehr starkes Leuchten auf ihrer ganzen Oberfläche verdächtig erschienen. Heller gibt davon folgende Beschreibung: "Die Würste waren rohe, sogenannte "Augsburger", 4 Zoll lang und 1 1/2 Zoll dick. Sie verbreiteten nicht im geringsten einen unangenehmen oder gar fauligen Geruch und hatten einen guten frischen Geschmack. Die Füllung bestand meist aus rohem Rindfleisch und wenig rohem Schweinefleisch.<br />
<br />
Die Würste waren weich, an der Oberfläche nass und schleimig und trockneten nicht an der Luft. Sie hatten übrigens am Tageslicht keine besondere Eigenschaft. Schon im Halbdunkel leuchteten sie, aber in einem finsteren Raume war auf ihrer ganzen Oberfläche ein sehr starkes, weisslich-grünliches, ruhiges, nicht dampfendes Licht verbreitet, dass man schon bei einer Wurst gewöhnliche Druckschrift recht gut lesen konnte.<br />

Hackteria is a collection of Open Source Biological Art Projects instigated in February 2009 by Andy Gracie, Marc Dusseiller and Yashas Shetty, after collaboration during the Interactivos?09 Garage Science at Medialab Prado in Madrid. The aim of the project is to develop a rich web resource for people interested in or developing<br />
projects that involve DIY bioart, open source software and electronic experimentation. As a community platform hackteria tries to encourage the collaboration of scientists, hackers and artists to combine their expertise, write critical and theoretical reflections, share simple instructions to work with lifescience technologies and cooperate on the organization of workshops, festival and meetings.Since 2009, Hackteria has conducted workshops in Europe (Switzerland, Slovenia, Norway, Austria, Hungary, Serbia, United Kingdom, Germany) , Asia (India, Indonesia, Taiwan, Hong Kong), Africa (Kenya) and North America (US, Canada).<br />

[[File:Notes_on_TempLab_pei.jpg|300px|thumb|Planung des Läb(e) am Egge]]<br />
Das Projekt «Läb(e) am Egge» untersucht seit Sommer 2014 biologisches Licht von Tieren, Pflanzen und Bakterien. Mit einfachen Mitteln haben wir in unserem Studio ein Labor mit Mikroskop und den notwendigsten Utensilien und Chemikalien eingerichtet und begannen biolumineszierende Pilze und Bakterien zu züchten, um sie nach unseren Vorstellungen wachsen zu lassen.<br />
<br />
Die Untersuchungen, Recherchen, Experimente und deren Ergebnisse veröffentlichen wir fortlaufend auf der folgender Webseite<br />
* http://hackteria.org/wiki/Explorations_in_BioLuminescence<br />
<br />
In Zusammenarbeit mit Stefan Wagner vom Corner College und der Gruppe Hackteria ist im Vorfeld eine Talk/Präsentations - Reihe, «[[HSC]] - Hackteria Swiss Curriculum» entstanden, die seit Mai 2014 einmal monatlich stattfindet. [[HSC]] ist ein Diskussions-Format mit dem Ziel eine öffentliche Diskussion über verschiedene Aspekte von Bio art | Wissenschaft | Technologie und verwandte Praktiken zu führen. <br />
* http://www.corner-college.com/Archiv/48 <br />
* http://hackteria.org/wiki/HSC<br />
<br />
Das «Läb(e) am Egge» ist aus dieser Reihe hervorgegangen, will aber zur diskursiven Ebene mit einem längeren Zeitrahmen auch einen Fokus auf praktische Labortätigkeit und konkretes Experimentieren legen.<br />
<br />
== Überblick ==<br />
[[File:Andi_Holz.jpg|300px|thumb|Andreas experimentiert mit gefundenem Holz]]<br />
Vom 20. - 26. Oktober werden wir für eine Woche im Corner College Zürich ein „Bio-Labor“ einrichten und betreiben. Unsere öffentlich zugänglichen Laborexperimente werden ergänzt mit Präsentationen, Talks und Workshops von eingeladenen Gästen und Kollaborationen. (Siehe Programm.)<br />
<br />
Dabei geht es uns darum verschiedene Professionen zusammen zu bringen. Das Kern Team besteht bereits aus KünstlerInnen, IngenieurInnen, BiotechnikerInnen und wir möchten dazu weitere Positionen und Blickwinkel ermöglichen. Wir lassen Kunst, Wissenschaft, neue Technologien und Geschichte aufeinander treffen und schauen was bei der Auseinandersetzung entsteht.<br />
<br />
Mit Biolumineszenz wollen wir Licht in die, für viele verborgene, Laborwelt bringen. „Open source“, „Do it your self“, „Do it with others“ sind unsere Werkzeuge, um einen kritischen Blick auf die heutige Abhängigkeit von Pharma- und Chemieindustrie zu werfen.<br />
<br />
Es wird ersichtlich werden, was für Infrastruktur benötigt wird, um ein minimales oder temporäres Labor zu betreiben. Schon mit geringem Aufwand ist vieles möglich und man kann mit entsprechendem Know-How einiges davon selbst bauen.<br />
<br />
Ein ebenso zentraler Teil werden Phenomene sein, die in unserer Kultur beinahe in vergessenheit geraten sind. Bei vielen Leuten, wie auch bei uns, liess der Begriff Biolumineszenz zuerst an Leuchtkäfer und Tiere aus der Tiefsee denken. Dass aber auch Holz in unseren Wäldern leuchten kann ist vielen nicht bekannt.<br />

*Viele Sachen, die man in der Küche oder in der Natur findet (wie Pfefferminztee, Curry oder Eierschalen), fluoreszieren nämlich im UV-Licht. Wir werden mit Naturstoffen experimentieren und sie zum Leuchten bringen! Stellt man zum Beispiel einen Zweig der Rosskastanie in Wasser, so fliesst aus der Rinde Aesculin heraus, welches bei Bestrahlung mit UV-Licht stark blau leuchtet. Und mit ein wenig Chemie löst sich aus braunen Eierschalen ein Farbstoff, den man im UV-Licht rot leuchten sieht.<br />

'''Thematischer Hintergrund'''<br />
<br />
„Wer jemals in einer warmen Juninacht die Johanniskäferchen gleich lebenden Irrlichtern durch die Lüfte huschen sah, wer im finsteren Walde einmal einem faulenden leuchtenden Baumstumpf begegnete, wer zum ersten Male im finsteren Keller leuchtendes Fleisch gesehen oder sich an dem herrlichen Schauspiele des Meer-leuchtens ergötzt hat, der wird die geheimnisvolle, zauberhafte Wirkung, die das Licht der Lebewesen auf den Menschen seit jeher ausgeübt hat, gewiß an sich verspürt haben.“<br />
Zitat aus „Populäre biologische Vorträge“ Professor Hans Molisch - „Das Leuchten der Pflanzen“ 1906.<br />
<br />
'''Phototaxis Of Human Beings'''<br />
<br />
Phototaxis ist eine Art von Taxis, oder motorischer Bewegung eines Organismus, der sich zu einem Lichtreiz hin, oder sich von diesem weg bewegt. Der Begriff wird meistens in bezug auf Tiere, Pflanzen, Mikroorganismen und weniger auf den Menschen angewendet. Wir denken aber, dass er auch ganz gut auf Menschliche Eigenarten zutrifft. Zum Beispiel auf seine Faszination für Lämpchen, Lichterketten, Kerzenmeer, Feuerwerk etc. An grossen Festanlässen kann man verschiedensten Leucht-Accessoires begegnen. Die Wunderkerze ist da schon lange kein Einzelfall mehr. Neonfarbene Knicklichter, leuchtende Brillen, Fingerringe, Anhänger, farbwechselnde LED-Schnürsenkel, LED-Fallschirmchen etc. schwirren durch die dunkle Nacht. Und dies in einer Üppigkeit, dass man sich bald fragt: „Warum zum Teufel muss eigentlich immer alles leuchten?“<br />
<br />
'''Experimente / Recherchen / Literatur / Forschung'''<br />
<br />
Als Ausgangsmaterial für die «Läb(e) am Egge» - Week im Oktober dienen uns diverse Recherchen und Experimente die wir gemacht haben.<br />
<br />
Leuchtendes Holz ist ein Phänomen, das durch einen biolumineszierenden Pilz verursacht wird. Einer davon ist Armillaria und ist in den Schweizer Wäldern weit verbreitet. Nachdem wir durch einen bekannten das erste mal von leuchtendem Holz gehört hatten, versuchten wir es selbst aufzufinden. Wir begannen Vorkommen, Fundorte, Holzarten, Verhalten etc. zu dokumentierten.<br />
In einem weiteren Schritt versuchten wir das Myzel des Pilzes auf Agar-Medien in Reinkultur zu züchten.<br />

'''Hackteria: An example of neomodern activism. Leonardo Online 2013, Boris Magrini'''<br />

<br />
As a platform for knowledge sharing and artistic exploration, Hackteria constitutes a network of artists and researchers that merge the use of biotechnologies with hacking and do-it-yourself strategies. Its process-oriented and performative approaches, opposing to the materialistic imperatives of the art market, lean to the tradition of political art. In the present paper, I am arguing that Hackteria embodies what could be considered a neomodern activism, other recent examples of which are emerging within the new media art field. Instead of rejecting new controversial technologies, they propose a vision of a society that is moved forward by a more democratic use and discussion of these technologies. The activities of Hackteria are examined through the presentation of a bio-lab created in Ljubljana. <br />
<br />
The roots of Hackteria: from performative art to tactical media. <br />
<br />
The events organized by Hackteria are rooted in a long tradition of media art, as well as process-oriented and performative approaches. Performative art is not equivalent to process-oriented art; as Andreas Broeckmann correctly pointed out, “it only makes sense to speak of process-orientation in cases where the evolving process itself is a main factor of the aesthetic experience of the work.” [4] Nonetheless, neither performative nor process-oriented art focus on the creation of a finite product, a distinctive trait of the activities run by Hackteria. Furthermore, the BioTehna project, for example, share both performative, interactive and process-oriented qualities, for it is not the lab as such that is meaningful to the artistic intent of the group but rather the process involved in building and running it. <br />

DER ERSTE VERSUCH des Experiments ist fehlgeschlagen. Marc, Tuuli und Urs hatten verschiedene Fische gekauft, in Salzwasser eingelegt und einige Tage liegen gelassen. Nun sollten sich eigentlich die biolumineszierenden Bakterien auf dem Fisch vermehren, sodass man ihr Leuchten im Dunkeln erkennt. Die Bakterien sollten dann in einer Nährlösung aus Salzwasser, Pepton und Agar kultivieren. Doch nun muss erst einmal neuer Fisch her. Experimentieren im Heimlabor braucht Geduld. Marc, Urs und Tuuli sind Biohacker und damit Teil einer Bewegung, die die Welt ähnlich verändern könnte, wie in den 70er-Jahren die Computer-Tüftler mit der Entwicklung des PC in der Garage. Das zumindest glauben euphorische Journalisten und Technik-enthusiastische Wissenschafter.

* Six easy do-it-yourself experimental projects<br />
* For biotechnology and electronics do-it-yourself enthusiasts<br />
<br />
“Science for all” is the motto of a new movement which deals with biology and electronics. It applies the do-it-yourself approach, well established in the electronic and computer scene, to natural sciences. Here the boundaries between the arts and sciences are fluid. The artists and scientists who work together in an interdisciplinary manner call themselves “bio-hackers” or “bio-punks” and deliberately continue in the creative tradition of those two movements. Their research is designed to communicate scientific insights which are otherwise reserved for scientists. Home Made Bio Electronic Arts introduces leading exponents and presents six easy do-it-yourself experimental projects.<br />

„... On the global stage biohacking collective Hackteria has lead the way on demystifing bioart and providing people with easy practical ways to engage with it. Formed in 2009 and featuring chapters in Europe, India and Indonesia the Hackteria Wikipedia has become the de-facto resource for all budding biohackers. The interplay between biohacking and bioart is particularly fluid among Hackteria affiliated practitioners. “Hackteria is not, generally speaking, about finished products or finished works. The bioart just happens, but is not the primary goal” said Hackteria co-founder Marc Dusseiller. Some of that 'incidental bioart' has been quite sublime. -....“<br />
<br />
„...The Hackteria flavour of bioart and biotech education is particularly visible in Indonesia, where sister organisation Lifepatch complements the bioart residencies hosted by media-art lab the House of Natural Fiber (HONF), helping underfunded school students with such ingenious hacks as converting a webcam into a functioning microscope. At HONF in 2010, Julian Abraham and others initiated a project aimed at creating a safe form of fermentation based on tropical fruit, after the Indonesian government raised prohibitively high duties on alcohol. After leaving HONF, Abraham continued the theme, creating sound-based bioart pieces under the name Kapitän Biopunk. He provided workshops in homebrewing alcohol to accompany his Fermentation Madness, a sound-art piece that converts the processes of fermentation into an interactive soundscape. -....“<br />

'''European do-it-yourself (DIY) biology: Beyond the hope, hype and horror, Günter Seyfried et. al. BioEssays, Volume 36, Issue 6, June 2014'''<br />
<br />
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/bies.201300149/full<br />
<br />
The encounter of amateur science with synthetic biology has led to the formation of several amateur/do-it-yourself biology (DIYBio) groups worldwide. Although media outlets covered DIYBio events, most seemed only to highlight the hope, hype, and horror of what DIYBio would do in the future. Here, we analyze the European amateur biology movement to find out who they are, what they aim for and how they differ from US groups. We found that all groups are driven by a core leadership of (semi-)professional people who struggle with finding lab space and equipment. Regulations on genetic modification limit what groups can do. Differences between Europe and the US are found in the distinct regulatory environments and the European emphasis on bio-art. We conclude that DIYBio Europe has so far been a responsible and transparent citizen science movement with a solid user base that will continue to grow irrespective of media attention.<br />
<br />
Comparison between European and North American groups<br />
<br />
The DIYBio movements in the US and Europe have a lot in common. Beliefs in the democratization of science and the enabling of citizens to do biotechnology are shared by all groups on both sides of the Atlantic. In general, they have more in common than what sets them apart. However, there also seems to be aspects where the groups in the US and Europe differ from one another.<br />
<br />
In contrast to the USA (minding different state legislations), the groups in Europe need to obtain a license in order to carry out genetic engineering experiments. So far, the European groups have not done these types of experiments, but some of them plan to go through the licensing procedure and obtain a license. As an exception, the UK-Netherlands based C-LAB art collective did obtain a license to exhibit a bioart work with living genetically modified organisms in London, UK (http://c-lab.co.uk/projects.html). The work itself, however, was done in collaboration with a university research lab.<br />
<br />
A rather surprising finding, compared to the US, is a stronger collaboration of amateur biologists with artists and designers in Europe. It remains to be seen whether this observation is only due to the small sample size of groups, or if the art-science interaction is a real European characteristic.<br />

'''Leuchtende Pflanzen, Molisch 1904'''<br />
<br />
''B. Ueber das Leuchten von Würsten''<br />
<br />
Ueber diesen Gengenstand finden sich in der Literatur nur wenige brauchbare Nachrichten. Das Beste darüber verdanken wir Heller (1). Er erhielt im Winter 1852 in Wien von dem Sanitätsmagister Dr. Stuhlberger mehrere Würste, welche die Polizeibehörde deshalb in einem Verkaufsgewölbe konfiszieren liess, weil die Würste durch ein sehr starkes Leuchten auf ihrer ganzen Oberfläche verdächtig erschienen. Heller gibt davon folgende Beschreibung: "Die Würste waren rohe, sogenannte "Augsburger", 4 Zoll lang und 1 1/2 Zoll dick. Sie verbreiteten nicht im geringsten einen unangenehmen oder gar fauligen Geruch und hatten einen guten frischen Geschmack. Die Füllung bestand meist aus rohem Rindfleisch und wenig rohem Schweinefleisch.<br />
<br />
Die Würste waren weich, an der Oberfläche nass und schleimig und trockneten nicht an der Luft. Sie hatten übrigens am Tageslicht keine besondere Eigenschaft. Schon im Halbdunkel leuchteten sie, aber in einem finsteren Raume war auf ihrer ganzen Oberfläche ein sehr starkes, weisslich-grünliches, ruhiges, nicht dampfendes Licht verbreitet, dass man schon bei einer Wurst gewöhnliche Druckschrift recht gut lesen konnte.<br />

<br />
Hackteria is a collection of Open Source Biological Art Projects instigated in February 2009 by Andy Gracie, Marc Dusseiller and Yashas Shetty, after collaboration during the Interactivos?09 Garage Science at Medialab Prado in Madrid. The aim of the project is to develop a rich web resource for people interested in or developing<br />
projects that involve DIY bioart, open source software and electronic experimentation. As a community platform hackteria tries to encourage the collaboration of scientists, hackers and artists to combine their expertise, write critical and theoretical reflections, share simple instructions to work with lifescience technologies and cooperate on the organization of workshops, festival and meetings.Since 2009, Hackteria has conducted workshops in Europe (Switzerland, Slovenia, Norway, Austria, Hungary, Serbia, United Kingdom, Germany) , Asia (India, Indonesia, Taiwan, Hong Kong), Africa (Kenya) and North America (US, Canada).<br />

== Hintergrund ==<br />
[[File:Notes_on_TempLab_pei.jpg|300px|thumb|Planung des Läb(e) am Egge]]<br />
Das Projekt «Läb(e) am Egge» untersucht seit Sommer 2014 biologisches Licht von Tieren, Pflanzen und Bakterien. Mit einfachen Mitteln haben wir in unserem Studio ein Labor mit Mikroskop und den notwendigsten Utensilien und Chemikalien eingerichtet und begannen biolumineszierende Pilze und Bakterien zu züchten, um sie nach unseren Vorstellungen wachsen zu lassen.<br />
<br />
Die Untersuchungen, Recherchen, Experimente und deren Ergebnisse veröffentlichen wir fortlaufend auf der folgender Webseite<br />
* http://hackteria.org/wiki/Explorations_in_BioLuminescence<br />
<br />
In Zusammenarbeit mit Stefan Wagner vom Corner College und der Gruppe Hackteria ist im Vorfeld eine Talk/Präsentations - Reihe, «[[HSC]] - Hackteria Swiss Curriculum» entstanden, die seit Mai 2014 einmal monatlich stattfindet. [[HSC]] ist ein Diskussions-Format mit dem Ziel eine öffentliche Diskussion über verschiedene Aspekte von Bio art | Wissenschaft | Technologie und verwandte Praktiken zu führen. <br />
* http://www.corner-college.com/Archiv/48 <br />
* http://hackteria.org/wiki/HSC<br />
<br />
Das «Läb(e) am Egge» ist aus dieser Reihe hervorgegangen, will aber zur diskursiven Ebene mit einem längeren Zeitrahmen auch einen Fokus auf praktische Labortätigkeit und konkretes Experimentieren legen.<br />
<br />
== Überblick ==<br />
[[File:Andi_Holz.jpg|300px|thumb|Andreas experimentiert mit gefundenem Holz]]<br />
Vom 20. - 26. Oktober werden wir für eine Woche im Corner College Zürich ein „Bio-Labor“ einrichten und betreiben. Unsere öffentlich zugänglichen Laborexperimente werden ergänzt mit Präsentationen, Talks und Workshops von eingeladenen Gästen und Kollaborationen. (Siehe Programm.)<br />
<br />
Dabei geht es uns darum verschiedene Professionen zusammen zu bringen. Das Kern Team besteht bereits aus KünstlerInnen, IngenieurInnen, BiotechnikerInnen und wir möchten dazu weitere Positionen und Blickwinkel ermöglichen. Wir lassen Kunst, Wissenschaft, neue Technologien und Geschichte aufeinander treffen und schauen was bei der Auseinandersetzung entsteht.<br />
<br />
Mit Biolumineszenz wollen wir Licht in die, für viele verborgene, Laborwelt bringen. „Open source“, „Do it your self“, „Do it with others“ sind unsere Werkzeuge, um einen kritischen Blick auf die heutige Abhängigkeit von Pharma- und Chemieindustrie zu werfen.<br />
<br />
Es wird ersichtlich werden, was für Infrastruktur benötigt wird, um ein minimales oder temporäres Labor zu betreiben. Schon mit geringem Aufwand ist vieles möglich und man kann mit entsprechendem Know-How einiges davon selbst bauen.<br />
<br />
Ein ebenso zentraler Teil werden Phenomene sein, die in unserer Kultur beinahe in vergessenheit geraten sind. Bei vielen Leuten, wie auch bei uns, liess der Begriff Biolumineszenz zuerst an Leuchtkäfer und Tiere aus der Tiefsee denken. Dass aber auch Holz in unseren Wäldern leuchten kann ist vielen nicht bekannt.<br />

*Viele Sachen, die man in der Küche oder in der Natur findet (wie Pfefferminztee, Curry oder Eierschalen), fluoreszieren nämlich im UV-Licht. Wir werden mit Naturstoffen experimentieren und sie zum Leuchten bringen! Stellt man zum Beispiel einen Zweig der Rosskastanie in Wasser, so fliesst aus der Rinde Aesculin heraus, welches bei Bestrahlung mit UV-Licht stark blau leuchtet. Und mit ein wenig Chemie löst sich aus braunen Eierschalen ein Farbstoff, den man im UV-Licht rot leuchten sieht.<br />

'''Thematischer Hintergrund'''<br />
<br />
„Wer jemals in einer warmen Juninacht die Johanniskäferchen gleich lebenden Irrlichtern durch die Lüfte huschen sah, wer im finsteren Walde einmal einem faulenden leuchtenden Baumstumpf begegnete, wer zum ersten Male im finsteren Keller leuchtendes Fleisch gesehen oder sich an dem herrlichen Schauspiele des Meer-leuchtens ergötzt hat, der wird die geheimnisvolle, zauberhafte Wirkung, die das Licht der Lebewesen auf den Menschen seit jeher ausgeübt hat, gewiß an sich verspürt haben.“<br />
Zitat aus „Populäre biologische Vorträge“ Professor Hans Molisch - „Das Leuchten der Pflanzen“ 1906.<br />
<br />
'''Phototaxis Of Human Beings'''<br />
<br />
Phototaxis ist eine Art von Taxis, oder motorischer Bewegung eines Organismus, der sich zu einem Lichtreiz hin, oder sich von diesem weg bewegt. Der Begriff wird meistens in bezug auf Tiere, Pflanzen, Mikroorganismen und weniger auf den Menschen angewendet. Wir denken aber, dass er auch ganz gut auf Menschliche Eigenarten zutrifft. Zum Beispiel auf seine Faszination für Lämpchen, Lichterketten, Kerzenmeer, Feuerwerk etc. An grossen Festanlässen kann man verschiedensten Leucht-Accessoires begegnen. Die Wunderkerze ist da schon lange kein Einzelfall mehr. Neonfarbene Knicklichter, leuchtende Brillen, Fingerringe, Anhänger, farbwechselnde LED-Schnürsenkel, LED-Fallschirmchen etc. schwirren durch die dunkle Nacht. Und dies in einer Üppigkeit, dass man sich bald fragt: „Warum zum Teufel muss eigentlich immer alles leuchten?“<br />
<br />
'''Experimente / Recherchen / Literatur / Forschung'''<br />
<br />
Als Ausgangsmaterial für die «Läb(e) am Egge» - Week im Oktober dienen uns diverse Recherchen und Experimente die wir gemacht haben.<br />
<br />
Leuchtendes Holz ist ein Phänomen, das durch einen biolumineszierenden Pilz verursacht wird. Einer davon ist Armillaria und ist in den Schweizer Wäldern weit verbreitet. Nachdem wir durch einen bekannten das erste mal von leuchtendem Holz gehört hatten, versuchten wir es selbst aufzufinden. Wir begannen Vorkommen, Fundorte, Holzarten, Verhalten etc. zu dokumentierten.<br />
In einem weiteren Schritt versuchten wir das Myzel des Pilzes auf Agar-Medien in Reinkultur zu züchten.<br />

'''Hackteria: An example of neomodern activism. Leonardo Online 2013, Boris Magrini'''<br />
<br />
[[:File:LeaVol20No1_-Magrini.pdf]]<br />
<br />
http://www.leoalmanac.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/LEA_Vol20_No1_Magrini.pdf<br />
<br />
As a platform for knowledge sharing and artistic exploration, Hackteria constitutes a network of artists and researchers that merge the use of biotechnologies with hacking and do-it-yourself strategies. Its process-oriented and performative approaches, opposing to the materialistic imperatives of the art market, lean to the tradition of political art. In the present paper, I am arguing that Hackteria embodies what could be considered a neomodern activism, other recent examples of which are emerging within the new media art field. Instead of rejecting new controversial technologies, they propose a vision of a society that is moved forward by a more democratic use and discussion of these technologies. The activities of Hackteria are examined through the presentation of a bio-lab created in Ljubljana. <br />
<br />
The roots of Hackteria: from performative art to tactical media. <br />
<br />
The events organized by Hackteria are rooted in a long tradition of media art, as well as process-oriented and performative approaches. Performative art is not equivalent to process-oriented art; as Andreas Broeckmann correctly pointed out, “it only makes sense to speak of process-orientation in cases where the evolving process itself is a main factor of the aesthetic experience of the work.” [4] Nonetheless, neither performative nor process-oriented art focus on the creation of a finite product, a distinctive trait of the activities run by Hackteria. Furthermore, the BioTehna project, for example, share both performative, interactive and process-oriented qualities, for it is not the lab as such that is meaningful to the artistic intent of the group but rather the process involved in building and running it. <br />

„... Bakterien kultivieren und mit Gentechnik experimentieren: Das geht auch im Heimlabor, nennt sich Amateur-Biologen bauen selber Laborinstrumente und träumen von leuchtenden Pflanzen. Einige auch vom grossen Geld. <br />
<br />
DER ERSTE VERSUCH des Experiments ist fehlgeschlagen. Marc, Tuuli und Urs hatten verschiedene Fische gekauft, in Salzwasser eingelegt und einige Tage liegen gelassen. Nun sollten sich eigentlich die biolumineszierenden Bakterien auf dem Fisch vermehren, sodass man ihr Leuchten im Dunkeln erkennt. Die Bakterien sollten dann in einer Nährlösung aus Salzwasser, Pepton und Agar kultivieren. Doch nun muss erst einmal neuer Fisch her. Experimentieren im Heimlabor braucht Geduld. Marc, Urs und Tuuli sind Biohacker und damit Teil einer Bewegung, die die Welt ähnlich verändern könnte, wie in den 70er-Jahren die Computer-Tüftler mit der Entwicklung des PC in der Garage. Das zumindest glauben euphorische Journalisten und Technik-enthusiastische Wissenschafter. So meinte etwa der Physiker und Freidenker Freeman Dyson 2007 in einem Essay, «dass die domestizierte Biotechnologie unser Leben in den nächsten 50 Jahren mindestens so stark prägen werde, wie die Domestizierung des Computers in den letzten 50 Jahren». - ...„<br />

<br />
After 2 years of discussions with various people in the field of DIYbio, hackteria and BioArt, Dominik Landwehr and Verena Kuni published a new book in their HomeMade series. This time with the title “Home Made Bio Electronic Arts” they go some steps closer to interfacing the living world with DIY tinkering and electronics, easy accessible instructions for everybody. Additionally some editorial essays and an interview with Gerfried Stocker. A production by Migros-Kulturprozent with the Christoph Merian Verlag.<br />

* Six easy do-it-yourself experimental projects<br />
* For biotechnology and electronics do-it-yourself enthusiasts<br />
<br />
“Science for all” is the motto of a new movement which deals with biology and electronics. It applies the do-it-yourself approach, well established in the electronic and computer scene, to natural sciences. Here the boundaries between the arts and sciences are fluid. The artists and scientists who work together in an interdisciplinary manner call themselves “bio-hackers” or “bio-punks” and deliberately continue in the creative tradition of those two movements. Their research is designed to communicate scientific insights which are otherwise reserved for scientists. Home Made Bio Electronic Arts introduces leading exponents and presents six easy do-it-yourself experimental projects.<br />

„... On the global stage biohacking collective Hackteria has lead the way on demystifing bioart and providing people with easy practical ways to engage with it. Formed in 2009 and featuring chapters in Europe, India and Indonesia the Hackteria Wikipedia has become the de-facto resource for all budding biohackers. The interplay between biohacking and bioart is particularly fluid among Hackteria affiliated practitioners. “Hackteria is not, generally speaking, about finished products or finished works. The bioart just happens, but is not the primary goal” said Hackteria co-founder Marc Dusseiller. Some of that 'incidental bioart' has been quite sublime. -....“<br />
<br />
„...The Hackteria flavour of bioart and biotech education is particularly visible in Indonesia, where sister organisation Lifepatch complements the bioart residencies hosted by media-art lab the House of Natural Fiber (HONF), helping underfunded school students with such ingenious hacks as converting a webcam into a functioning microscope. At HONF in 2010, Julian Abraham and others initiated a project aimed at creating a safe form of fermentation based on tropical fruit, after the Indonesian government raised prohibitively high duties on alcohol. After leaving HONF, Abraham continued the theme, creating sound-based bioart pieces under the name Kapitän Biopunk. He provided workshops in homebrewing alcohol to accompany his Fermentation Madness, a sound-art piece that converts the processes of fermentation into an interactive soundscape. -....“<br />

'''European do-it-yourself (DIY) biology: Beyond the hope, hype and horror, Günter Seyfried et. al. BioEssays, Volume 36, Issue 6, June 2014'''<br />
<br />
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/bies.201300149/full<br />
<br />
The encounter of amateur science with synthetic biology has led to the formation of several amateur/do-it-yourself biology (DIYBio) groups worldwide. Although media outlets covered DIYBio events, most seemed only to highlight the hope, hype, and horror of what DIYBio would do in the future. Here, we analyze the European amateur biology movement to find out who they are, what they aim for and how they differ from US groups. We found that all groups are driven by a core leadership of (semi-)professional people who struggle with finding lab space and equipment. Regulations on genetic modification limit what groups can do. Differences between Europe and the US are found in the distinct regulatory environments and the European emphasis on bio-art. We conclude that DIYBio Europe has so far been a responsible and transparent citizen science movement with a solid user base that will continue to grow irrespective of media attention.<br />
<br />
Comparison between European and North American groups<br />
<br />
The DIYBio movements in the US and Europe have a lot in common. Beliefs in the democratization of science and the enabling of citizens to do biotechnology are shared by all groups on both sides of the Atlantic. In general, they have more in common than what sets them apart. However, there also seems to be aspects where the groups in the US and Europe differ from one another.<br />
<br />
In contrast to the USA (minding different state legislations), the groups in Europe need to obtain a license in order to carry out genetic engineering experiments. So far, the European groups have not done these types of experiments, but some of them plan to go through the licensing procedure and obtain a license. As an exception, the UK-Netherlands based C-LAB art collective did obtain a license to exhibit a bioart work with living genetically modified organisms in London, UK (http://c-lab.co.uk/projects.html). The work itself, however, was done in collaboration with a university research lab.<br />
<br />
A rather surprising finding, compared to the US, is a stronger collaboration of amateur biologists with artists and designers in Europe. It remains to be seen whether this observation is only due to the small sample size of groups, or if the art-science interaction is a real European characteristic.<br />

''B. Ueber das Leuchten von Würsten''<br />
<br />
Ueber diesen Gengenstand finden sich in der Literatur nur wenige brauchbare Nachrichten. Das Beste darüber verdanken wir Heller (1). Er erhielt im Winter 1852 in Wien von dem Sanitätsmagister Dr. Stuhlberger mehrere Würste, welche die Polizeibehörde deshalb in einem Verkaufsgewölbe konfiszieren liess, weil die Würste durch ein sehr starkes Leuchten auf ihrer ganzen Oberfläche verdächtig erschienen. Heller gibt davon folgende Beschreibung: "Die Würste waren rohe, sogenannte "Augsburger", 4 Zoll lang und 1 1/2 Zoll dick. Sie verbreiteten nicht im geringsten einen unangenehmen oder gar fauligen Geruch und hatten einen guten frischen Geschmack. Die Füllung bestand meist aus rohem Rindfleisch und wenig rohem Schweinefleisch.<br />
<br />
Die Würste waren weich, an der Oberfläche nass und schleimig und trockneten nicht an der Luft. Sie hatten übrigens am Tageslicht keine besondere Eigenschaft. Schon im Halbdunkel leuchteten sie, aber in einem finsteren Raume war auf ihrer ganzen Oberfläche ein sehr starkes, weisslich-grünliches, ruhiges, nicht dampfendes Licht verbreitet, dass man schon bei einer Wurst gewöhnliche Druckschrift recht gut lesen konnte.<br />

Hackteria is a collection of Open Source Biological Art Projects instigated in February 2009 by Andy Gracie, Marc Dusseiller and Yashas Shetty, after collaboration during the Interactivos?09 Garage Science at Medialab Prado in Madrid. The aim of the project is to develop a rich web resource for people interested in or developing<br />
projects that involve DIY bioart, open source software and electronic experimentation. As a community platform hackteria tries to encourage the collaboration of scientists, hackers and artists to combine their expertise, write critical and theoretical reflections, share simple instructions to work with lifescience technologies and cooperate on the organization of workshops, festival and meetings.Since 2009, Hackteria has conducted workshops in Europe (Switzerland, Slovenia, Norway, Austria, Hungary, Serbia, United Kingdom, Germany) , Asia (India, Indonesia, Taiwan, Hong Kong), Africa (Kenya) and North America (US, Canada).<br />

<div>== Overview ==<br />
Co-Development of a workshop on DIY laboratory instruments for bioanalytics, colorimetry, low-cost microcontrollers and simple DIY electronics, enzymatic assays. With a concept of "teach the teachers", we are looking into DIY lab-tools as means of a pedagogic tool for interdisciplinary thinking at the biomedical/engineering/molecular interface. Coproduced with SATW, Swiss Academy of Technical Sciences, Hackteria and FHNW, School for Lifesciences.<br />
<br />
Unsere moderne Gesellschaft ist ohne Technologien nicht denkbar. Viele dieser Technologien werden nicht oder ungenügend verstanden. Eine eigene Urteilsbildung wird dadurch schwierig. Dies gilt auch für bioanalytische Methoden, welche heute in den unterschiedlichsten Bereichen eingesetzt werden. Es können chemische Substanzen, biologische Marker oder Gene in Lebensmitteln, der Umwelt oder in Flüssigkeiten und Geweben des menschlichen Körpers nachgewiesen werden. Die gemessenen Daten und deren Interpretation können für den einzelnen Menschen oder die Gesellschaft wichtig sein. Die Funktionsweise und Anwendungsmöglichkeiten dieser Geräte sind für Nichtspezialisten eine "black box". Wir möchten gerne das Verständnis für bioanalytische Messungen und Auswertungen nach dem Motto "bauen - messen - verstehen - reflektieren - vertrauen" verbessern. Im Rahmen dieses Projektes soll ein Workshop entwickelt und als Pilot mit interessierten Hochschuldozierenden (teach-the-teacher) durchgeführt werden.<br />
<br />
Das Projekt wurde gefördert durch [http://www.satw.ch/projekte/projekte/laborgeraete/index SATW], Schweizerische Akademie der Technischen Wissenschaften.<br />
<br />
===Participants:===<br />
A very interesting and interdisciplinary group of participants has already come together, from various schools in Switzerland, from engineering, life science and design.<br />
<br />
===Goal:===<br />
The goal of the workshop is to collaboratively develop further the educational concept of the Do-It-Yourself method for student training, document our experience and reflections as an educational guideline and hopefully co-develop an interesting summer (or winter) school concept to be held in 2015/16 in different universities.<br />
<br />
===Dissemination:===<br />
We will have the opportunity that the output of our workshop will be published in the SATW News online publication and sent to their large network.<br />

== A final Quote ==<br />
<br />
''"There is a growing realization that innovation processes do not automatically follow from the results of research, whatever their potential may be. The “linear model,” which foresees that basic research will somehow find its way to being transferred or translated into applied research, which will in turn later appear on the market in the form of commercially viable products or processes, appears as an idealized version of what happened in a given historical period, namely, after World War II. Nor can today’s innovation processes be left to entrepreneurs alone, however strong their “restlessness” (in a Schumpeterian sense) may be. The omnipresent quest for innovation, caught up as it has been in a globalized world, is a hybrid of many elements. It includes the availability of venture capital, and the creativity of determined individuals as much as the flexibility of institutions and regulatory processes"''.<br />

The Art – Science Soirée will be an evening of presentations and a panel discussions with our invited international and Swiss guests. This will be a great opportunity to present and disseminate the collaborative project we are organizing in Indonesia in April 2014, the HackteriaLab 2014 – Yogyakarta. Additionally we invited the Finnish Bioart Society to present their transdisciplinary activities during their artistic research residency in Kilpisjärvi, Lappland, Field_Notes – From Landscape to the Laboratory. Our partners from lifepatch - citizen initiative in art, science and technology will show their participatory art-science activities on ecologies such as the Merapi Volcano and the Yogya Rivers. For the discussion we have invited the Swiss art historian Boris Magrini to moderate the evening.<br />

'''A Cicada in the Hand'''<br />
[[File:grasshoper_on_cicada_3_jpg_740x494_crop_q90.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Indonesian rice goddesses, bio art and centipedes as long as your arm - it's all in a day's work for artist and scientist Dr Brian Degger.]]<br />
<br />
Dr Brian Degger visited Yogyakarta, Indonesia for HackteriaLab14 (HLab14), an open source biological art lab hosted by Lifepatch (Indonesia) and facilitated by Hackteria. One of the challenges to HLab14's participants was to redefine and try out how an artistic practice can support social innovation, cultural shifts, change and at the same time able to be positioned in its own discipline. For the ecological research node (the name for the different sections of the lab) he visited the Wonosadi Forest. Here he talks about his experience.<br />
<br />
''"I am so thankful to them for introducing us to the forest, for ferrying all those tents up to the Ngenuman plateau and for keeping us fed and happy. Wonosadi, is a place I would love to spend more time in with the Green Tech Community."''<br />
<br />
* Things I learnt: the challenge of glass working from recycled glass/the awe of Ivan (a glass artist) who makes it look easy, bookbinding using envelopes, silkscreening t-shirts. <br />
* Things I liked: citizen sensing with a GPS enabled coconut, meeting a live fish-food catcher. <br />
* Things I exhibited: a shaking apparatus made from a dead cddrive, a series of artificial pools with river code aquatic inhabitants in conjunction with the BIOSC project. <br />
* Future collaborations? Yes! Plan to get back to Yogyarkarta for the World Critical Making Summit late 2015<br />

<br />
At the the early developing stage of HLab14, the co-organiser of KopenLab Martin Malthe Borch joined several skype meetings and eventually came to Yogyakarta to partake HackteriaLab 2014 between 13 - 28 April. The exchange amongst artistic context and citizen science lead to several spontaneous workshops and continuous researches which now we bring few of them to KopenLab dated 21 - 26 June. <br />

The Art – Science Soirée will be an evening of presentations and a panel discussions with our invited international and Swiss guests. This will be a great opportunity to present and disseminate the collaborative project we are organizing in Indonesia in April 2014, the HackteriaLab 2014 – Yogyakarta. Additionally we invited the Finnish Bioart Society to present their transdisciplinary activities during their artistic research residency in Kilpisjärvi, Lappland, Field_Notes – From Landscape to the Laboratory. Our partners from lifepatch - citizen initiative in art, science and technology will show their participatory art-science activities on ecologies such as the Merapi Volcano and the Yogya Rivers. For the discussion we have invited the Swiss art historian Boris Magrini to moderate the evening.<br />
