BUILD-YOUR-OWN BIOREACTOR + BIOMODD
04 OCTOBER 2012
CNSI ART|SCI GALLERY
Build-Your-Own Bioreactor was a hands
on workshop where participants learned
how to build their own green algae
bioreactor. They built contraptions that
boost algae growth using simple, and
mainly recycled and re-used materials
such as aeration systems, lights and
glassware.
Accompanying the workshop was a lecture
on Biomodd, a multifaceted socially
engaged art installation that finds
meaningful relationships between
biology, computers and people. On the
most basic level, Biomodd creates
symbiotic relationships between plants
and computers, and ignites conversations
among the community around them. The
first version of Biomodd started
in Athens, Ohio in 2007, and has
since travelled to the Philippines,
Slovenia, New Zealand, Belgium and
the Netherlands. In each location the
project got its own unique outcome. A
new version is currently being developed
by an international community at the New
York Hall of Science in Queens, NY.
