Cool - do you know who is teaching it this year? I think Philip Ross (the
mushroom art guy) has thought this class once before, but it doesn't seem
like a very regularly scheduled class.
I've been tinkering a little with bio art at BioCurious and I wouldn't mind
doing more of that at sudoroom. We've been discussing doing some
events/classes/seminars with East Bay DIYbio, and this could fit right in
there as well.
Actually, at the moment I'm trying to come up with some fun hands-on
experiments we can do at the BioCurious booth at Maker Faire, preferably
with all edible materials: agar-agar, red cabbage juice, bakers yeast, live
yoghurt etc. Doing the experiments to figure out the best combinations
would not be very artsy, but it's definitely something that can easily be
done at sudoroom.

I saw that they have a course in Art & Biology. This is so interesting.
Have any of the sudoshroomers done any art & biology projects? The
possibilities are endless!!!! <3
A lot of people are in the Experimental Sound meetup that meets at the end
of the month. I hung out ato ne of their parties last night . Would be cool
to get some biohacking art going on in the SudoRoom!
*Art & Biology*
Whether the cycles of life act as an inspiration or are actually
incorporated into your art-making process, the study of biology can be a
hotbed of novel visions. In this course we will attempt to reinvent the
concepts and practices of biology in an artistic context. Possibilities
may include: playing with microbes and microscopes, studying embryonic
development, visiting laboratories and discussing recent advances in
molecular biology. Living art projects will be encouraged.
