Fluorescent Reporter Bacteria for Arsenic Sensing

...

Fluorescent Microscopy

Build a fluorescence microscope based on the Hackteria webcam kit by adding UV-LEDs. Eventualy modifying the webcam to longer exposure to increase sensitivity. Inspect different samples to find fluorescent material. Modify samples (blood cells) to be fluorescent and try to sort them based in microscopy imaging.

Grow real Computer Bugs

In 1947, Grace Murray Hopper was working Mark II Computer when the machine was experiencing problems. An investigation showed that there was a moth trapped between the points of Relay #70, in Panel F. This was the "First actual case of bug being found." The computer was debugged - and what happed to the bug that actual tried to "reprogram" the computer and make the first steps in bio-computing? It was affixed in the log book of Mr. Hopper. It was actually a moth and since it did not follow moore's law it was somehow forgotten. We want to identify and rediscover the famous animal. Find out what other bugs have been active in bugging (in fact the modern meaning can be dated back to at least 1896). Grow them and give them a new chance to be part of an "Art-Sci Bio Computer Project". For example a BioDuino micro controller board with a real bug actively reprogramming it...

Shruti Hacking

Take the shruti hacking started in 2012 to a new level. Approach Radel to get more devices (for free (and pay flights for some talented music artists to come to Bangalore)) and bring new spirit into these amazing boxes. Try to fully understand the previously reverse engineered multi chorous audio system. Spend long nights immersing into the sound of shruti.
