ART + ACTIVISM > “ON MUTAPHOBIA” BIO ART WORKSHOP

10 JANUARY 2008
EDA, UCLA ART|SCI CENTER

While working in an MIT lab, Adam
Zaretsky once spent two days playing
a recording of the hits of singer
Engelbert Humperdinck to a petri dish
full of E. coli bacteria. The organisms’
antibiotic production increased, and
he concluded that humans aren’t the
only clusters of cells agitated by the
continual “loud, awful lounge music.” He
dubbed it “the Humperdinck effect.”
