==> join for streaming and IRC (channel:#HONF) <== HONF 24 - 25 April 2011 The first Asia-Pacific DIYBio & BioArt meeting: "Democratising the Laboratory" * Presentation * Discussion * Symposium http://wiki.natural-fiber.com/Asia-Pasific_DIYBio_and_BioArt_Meeting http://natural-fiber.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=90&Itemid=95 People doing strange things in their kitchens and bathrooms? ‚ "My home is my lab" movement? Global exchange of biotech kits and protocols, playing with genome and creating synthetic organisms for pets, using lab tools when cooking and transforming kitchens into biotech labs, these are just some of the faces of the global pop biotech. Artists, designers and scientists across the region translate scientific protocols into art manifests, create sculptures from tissues, help local communities with low cost and low tech protocols, do performances with DNA and installations from biotopes. We will meet to probe the territory between public, private and lab spaces and discuss various forms of biohacking, biopunk, bioart and molecular gastronomy. How relevant are these citizen science practices for innovation and how can they support local communities? What are some new design and art ideas related to biotechnologies? How can we involve critical design practices in bioethics discussions? How can these probes and experiments enable local communities? We will cook, brew, play and hack in order to discuss the potential of DIYbio and BioArt in the region.
