ARTS 6120 - Biopunk: Arts Lab Practice


Biopunk: Arts Lab Practice is a studio, lab and lecture class introducing students to bioart, and microbial life and resilient ecological practices. We use punk, queer and biological laboratory techniques to creatively produce science, design and art works. Students will be required to complete readings, experiment, and create their own visions of a speculative biofuture. Emphasis will be on the history and contemporary investigations of the microbiome and how to culturally explore these scenarios of how we live amongst multiple diverse communities and species.
