Media Files==== Biochymickal Arts 20130915 ==== ====maja intro ==== (see maja's notes) * langauges & gestures * culture & environment * fermentsiton & metabolism * essence & code * improvisation & speculation ====bio based electronics==== Mischka Melo * experiments in finding ways to improve environmental footprint of electronics * currently ~45 metals used in microcircuitry * currently ~80% of waste -> landfill. (ref. ~75% metals in landfill is from eletronics) * can we build compostable electroncis? * primary work transistor made using milk,carrot,fish,ecoflex,brocilli, sugar * ref. Mihai Irimia-Vladu - many papers online at http://www.jku.at/ipc/content/e166682/index_html?team_view=section&emp=e166682/employee_groups_wiss166736/employees175992 and http://www.researchgate.net/profile/Mihai_Irimia-Vladu/publications/ * La Paillasse as venue for DIY experiments with melanin as living semiconductor * can melanin be produced in a kitchen-lab? * created cultures using food grade materials available from supermarket * target component is a thermistor * using permaculture principels to enhcance 'intelligence' of agricultural systems * space and time trade off, new techniques required to use biological substrates for computation * ref. biological computation research group mentioned in Biomimicry by Janine M. Benyus * biomimetic kettle w. guillian graves, based on nautillus shell, spherical compartments per cup, clay using bioethanol [ref.] (note. biobutnol) ====domestic plastics==== Brian Degger ref. http://medialab-prado.es/article/interactivos10_muestra_de_proyectos * plastics thant can be made at home, can be used in the home * what kind of domestic uses are there for plastics than can be made in the kitchen? * based on glycerol, starch and vinegar * cooking up toys based on templates * why is it a plastic? a polymerized chain * compostable? ====sythetic biology==== hugo herter * what materials do you need to program cells? * introdcution to biology, classification, molecular biology * about ~1.5% human genome coding for proteins * DNA, RNA, Amino Acid, Proteins, (UGC, codons) * transcription video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3fOXt4MrOM * http://ensemblgenomes.org/info/data_access * http://uniprot.org * http://pdb.org * http://clustal.org * sythetic biology - engineering, molecular biology, modelling * regulation of expresion * BioBricks (e.g Promoter, RBS, Gene, Stop) -> http://partsregistry.org * iGEM 2009 entry -> E.Coli biosynthesis of superglue * principles; chemotaxis, quorum sensing, non-proliferation * in your garage * order DNA (online, CC), Insert DNA (cometent bacteria, transfomraional device), Grow bacteria (selection, application) ====biopunk==== * meredith (see maja's notes) * [[biopunk menifesto]] ====misc==== * https://benchling.com/ ====lithuanian farmhouse brewing==== discussion of recent developments in the lithuanian beer craft/culture which grew form M.s interest in homebrewing. post 1991 previously 'undergroud' semi-legal breweries becme legal. ~200 then, ~60 now. comercial brewing was thus based on homebrewing style techniques and included some peculiarities (e.g. not boiling the wort, unpasteurised -> target for wild bacteria, baking loaves of malt and using crumbs in brewing, ritual of sauna before brewing, starting the process in sauna) some family yeast cultures have a verfifiable history around 160 yrs. in "lithuanian farmhouse brewing" article, beer connrsiour magazine covered 20 brewries in 4 days (hosted by T.A) surprised by distinct tastes and techniques. sequenceing of the yeast DNA led to conslcusion that there may be a distinct species or hybrid in the J. strain. * http://tikrasalus.lt/2012/05/01/lithuanian-countryside-yeast-tales/ * http://tikrasalus.lt/2012/08/30/beer-connoisseur-top-secret-lithuanian-farmhouse-brewing/ ====summaries==== (see maja's notes) * closing loops with bio-materials * rethink intelligent systems * people & politics * need time to ferment * in three words * "they are hungry" * "time,impressive,new" * "inspiring social fermentation" * "go for it" * "sharing" * "interspecies fecundation" * "too much food" -> "much food too" * "anticipating practical experiments" * "enzymic historical hacking" * "time aware processes" * "fermentaion relasing energy" * "creative, bulling reactions" * "micro world tourism" * "dexterity is hard" * "slow process, fast experiments" * "sleep. bubbling. people" * "more researh required" Please fill all the letters into the box to prove you're human.
