Generic Lab Equipment

Urs tools.jpg To start up an independent and open lab it is crucial to get affordable lab equipment (besides having an enthusiastic and open group of people, see How to start a BioLab). 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.

About Hackteria

Hackteria | Open Source Biological Art, DIY Biology, Generic Laboratory Infrastructure

Hackteria is an international network active since 2009 in the field of Open Source Biological Art. As a community platform hackteria tries to encourage the collaboration of scientists, hackers and artists to combine their experitise, write critical and theoretical reflections, share simple instructions to work with lifescience technologies and cooperate on the organization of workshops, temporary labs, hack-sprints and meetings. Hackteria is a network of people practicing DIY (do-it-yourself) and DIWO (do-it-with-others) biology with an interest in art, design and interdisciplinary cooperation. Hackteria operates on a global scale, and is based on a web platform and a wiki for sharing knowledge, which enable anyone to learn but also test different ways of hacking living systems. Hackteria is not based in a physical space, and its goal is to allow artists, scientists and hackers to collaborate and test various biohacking and bioart techniques outside the official laboratories and art institutions, basically anywhere in the world.

See our front website also for more info, news and articles.

A lot has been written about hackteria, see our overview of press and media.

About the International Hackteria Society
Under the name “International Hackteria Society”, is an association according to article 60ff of the Swiss Civil Code (ZGB) with seat in Zürich. The association aims to guarantee the organizational and financial processes of the project “Hackteria | Open Source Biological Art”. It wants to further development and access to practical knowledge in artistic engagement with the lifesciences. It wants to create platforms for public discussions and invite international artists and scientists for critical and theoretical discourse. The association works as a non- profit organization to reach its aims.

The emergence of the CyborgWitch strategy: ‘ A pesar de que el Witchcraft’ have creativity, fantasy, and innovation at their core, many Witches look to technology for pragmatic as well as spiritual tasks, to supply them with increased access to information and to like-minded people who can discuss and share their ideas.

HardGlam devices learn from Witchcraft and incorporate the labboratory into magical practice substituting local technologies for craft tools in both simple and complicated ways, and using the internet for socio purposes.

This Glamorous devices possess its own numen and act as a conduit for the spirit of the utilitarian aspect of using mechanical objects for magic and for communication with the queer beings through Chaos Magic as the actual doing of it - that like sex, no amount of theorizing and intellectualisation can substitute for the actual experience.


The sentiment that involves expression and transformation of the self through fluid mechanical digital interaction was being with the actual Cyborg Witches emergence.


Only in extremes can the spirit discover itself. A fluid environment is required as a vessel for magical consciousness. Only a fluid environment can conform to beliefs about it and be subject to the subtle magical forces. Only in mutable circumstances can divination come into its own.

Accordingly, some Witches have imagined the web as the sublime superhighway, and used the technology of this arena in experiments to project the self into liminal space for the purposes of ex stasis, and to harness, decipher, and re-write this mysterious plane for more powerful spell-work.


Witch is heightened and they enters into a transient state of ecstasy, exstasis, in the literal sense, ‘to stand outside of oneself’. The body is the interface that must be surpassed for the Witch to become a walker between worlds, where the disembodied self, (soul,mind, psyche) can coalesce with supernal entities, assume an alternative identity by switching gender, theriomorphing, or reach apotheosis and become a god.

These facts might suggest that open-source faiths like CW Witchcraf have a survival advantage in a progressively rational world. But it is not just CyborgWitches who are consecrating technology and holding it up as a window to the soul and path to deification; scientists, philosophers, cultural theorists, sci-fi geeks and computer programmers have all contributed to the development of the techgnosis concept.


Social movements like Witchcraft demonstrate that science and religion are not always “non- overlapping magisteria” as the Witchen community has managed to find enchantment in the technological world.


not all Witches have access to a range of technologies, nor are they all well versed in their operations. Another more weighty issue is that as our civilization becomes more absorbed in post-modern technology, we have less of a need for traditional attachments to the natural environment and the organic body.


The CyborgWitch strategy is an addendum to Witchcraft that seeks out charm in a De-naturalised urban context and aims to keep the religion dynamic and germane.

Conversely, the theories and experiments of trans-humanists are emic and the objectives are based on gaining knowledge and enhancing the self, ambitions shared by the acceptance of the cyborg revolution, means as a mutation towards divinity.


Now the cyborg witches has the flames to enchanted Chaos Magic from the radical visions of the punk doing together magic alchemy to heal where is needed and balance between nature and technology. Nature queer performativity through entanglements with nature (non industrial tech) and technology (postindustrial one) and other agencies.

magic charm, alluring beauty or charm, a spell affecting the eye, a kind of haze in the air , song, verse, incantation.’


Chaos magic borrowed freely fromScience Fiction, Quantum Physics, and anything else its practitioners chose to. Rather than trying to recover and maintain a tradition that links back to the past (and formerglories), Chaos magic is an approach that enables the individual to use anything that s/he thinks is suitable as a temporary belief or symbol system. What matters is the results you get, not the ‘authenticity’ of the system used. So Chaos magic then, is not a system - it utilises systems and encourages adherents to devise their own, giving magic a truly Postmodernist flavour.

See new Project page Collection of DIY Biology, Open Source Art Projects and here you find the Old Main Page for now... until we made a new structure here in the front.

But because this one is such a claaassiiic! We leave it here for reflection...

Projects
Project 1: The Bacterial Net- Microbial Telecommunications.
2.jpg

Quorum sensing is a type of decision-making process used by decentralized groups to coordinate behavior. Many species of bacteria use quorum sensing to coordinate their gene expression according to the local density of their population.The Bacterial Net attempts to transfer this decision making process over the Internet. Using Microcontollers and sensors to detect bacterial population and a public web service http://www.pachube.com that helps transfer sensor information. The Bacterial Net is an exploration in bringing the Internet into the Natural Ecosystem.
