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.

Project 2: Bioelectronix
Bioelectronics after casting.jpg

Integrating electronics into biological culture devices needs different approaches. the use of silicone-rubbers for sealing off the wet/humid bio-part from the silicon circuits and sensors allows the making of hybrid bioelectronic devices.

Project 3: Synthetic Biology for Artists and Designers: A primer
Synbio cover.jpg

An Illustrated handbook that shows you how to work with MIT's parts registry

Project 4: ArtScienceBangalore 2009-Synthetic Biology for Artists and Designers
Whiteboard.jpg

see also the docu for Prix Ars Electronica


Project 5: DIY microscopy
Cam ani sm.gif

a small hack to the optics of a standard webcam with an adjustable focus-lens, allows to create video data, with a magnification of around 100 to 400x (depending on the model) at a working distance of a few mm. The highest magnifications can be achieved by inverting (putting upside down) the lens. Addition of good lighting by the use of leds allows to create images using a bright-field method (shine through the stuff) or dark field method (look at the reflections and scattering).

Project 6:DIY $25 Gel Box
DSC 8050.jpg

Building your own Electrophoresis Gel Box is easy. Here's how you do it!

Project 7: bio habitats
Biohabitat.jpg

instead of using standard lab culture tools, such as flasks or petri-dishes, artists might want to design their own devices to culture and inhabitate living organisms and keep them alive. simple devices can be cast in silicone to incorporate all the necessary environemtal conditions for long time survival of microorganisms.

Project 8: DIY Microfluidics
Microfluidicwikiimage.png
Project 9: DIY Plant Tissue culture and Engineering
Plant culture.jpg
Project 10: Pd_microscope
Pd microscope.png

Pd_microscope is the software package that you can use to control your DIY microscope. It's a work in progress

Project 11: DIY spectroscopy
Spektral tag1.jpg

Spectroscopy means the analysis of natural phenomena according to its energy distribution. In case of the electromagnetic spectra, ranging from x-ray, visible light, infrated to radio frequencies, this can be used to analyse chemical compounds, follow biochemical reactions or get information of the composition of stars. This project tries utilize webcams, CD/DVD and some construction material, to get a spectral analysis of ultra-violett and visible light sources, which might be used to follow enzymatic and metabolic reactions in cultured microorganisms and bacteria.

Project 26: How to start a nanolab
Nanolab.jpg

Because nanotechnology is situated at the interface of many disciplines it is best to organize some basic gear from various sources, such as a local electronics store, gardening shops or various online suppliers for household tools and electronic gadgets. You will need to set up some basic laboratory instruments for doing simple biology, chemistry, fabrication&manufacturing and some physical computing to connect everything to your computer.

Project 43: NeuroNetworking
Dkbrain.jpg

Prototypes & design fiction into networking over brain data and biodata related to our brain function (fMRI, SNPs, EEG). How will we use brain data for social networking, neuromarketing, citizen science projects,etc. The main technical challenge is to create some open format for sharing brain data over the web (3D T1-weighted gradient-echo sequence (MP-RAGE)images in the nifti format http://nifti.nimh.nih.gov/nifti-1 , which is readable by FSL software (http://www.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl/ into some 3D web browser data and image that would support crowdsourcing of brain data, pattern recognition and comparison of brain data).

Project 44: Garden 2012: Spherification of Hieronymus Bosch
Spheres big.jpg

Spherification experiments as a tribute to Hieronymus Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights. In order to understand our new cosmology of minimal but also complex spheres (molecules, cells, vesicles, coacervates, microspheres), we decided to use spherification techniques and to try to design a version of Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights like a catalogue of what is possible in terms of spheres today. Some of our spheres are eatable, other are perceived only by microscopes, some target taste buds other just molecules, we even tried to prepare a micro-meal for microorganisms entrapped in a type of mini-aquaria and systems. The three containers mimicking the original triptych are an early reflection of the importance of spheres for our idea of origin or the organic life but also present experiments in molecular gastronomy but also drug targeting systems and research in nano-bio technologies. Humans making spheres on all scales are like gods recreating some new garden with self-enclosed systems, ecologies and microspheres, which influence each other and interact.
