Open Hackuarium #178 - Alienated Landscapes
ENGLISH BELOW
Principal langue cette semaine: Français
Theme : Mesurer la pollution environnementale avec des têtard fluorescents
Date : Mercredi 29 novembre 2017. Ouverture des portes à 18:00, ateliers et discussion dès 18:30 et jusqu'à 22h
INSCRIVEZ VOUS SVP ICI // SIGN UP HERE PLEASE!!
Durant cet #OH178 nous parlerons aliens et environnement. Comme d'habitude, cette soirée est entièrement ouverte au publique!
Si vous souhaitez participer à l'atelier, veuillez vous inscrire ici.
Dans le cadre de notre soirée ouverte #OH ALIENATED LANDSCAPES nous ouvrons l'evenement avec le super atelier "Action d'extraction d'hormone d'urine!" avec la super artiste et biohacker Mary Maggic ! En suite nous avons notre table ronde/discussion/brainstorming avec nos biohackers, artistes et scientifiques citoyennes invités.

Plus en détails
Chaque jour, des tonnes de substances toxiques sont libérées dans l'environnement et contribuent à l'aliénation de notre planète. Comptent parmis ce produits, des perturbateurs endocriniens, des métaux lourds, et des microplastiques, pour n’en citer que quelques uns.Connaissons-nous les effets à long terme de ces substances sur les êtres vivants et les écosystèmes? Comment faire face à ce problème croissant et l’endiguer ? En attendant, les scientifiques, ingénieurs, designers et artistes development des protocoles pour solutionner cette problématique qui affecte l’espace public, le commun. Certaines de ces solutions sont des machines, des cyborgs ou encore des organismes vivants modifiés génétiquement: par exemple, des espèces peuvent être génétiquement modifiées pour réagir ou donner une réponse par le biais de la fluorescence (bio rapporteurs) en présence d’un polluant. Comment fonctionnent ces artefacts? Qui les utilisent? Quelles sont leurs interactions avec leurs milieux? Venez discuter de ça avec nous!
La Radio Suisse a fait un très court exposé sur l'annonce de l'utilisation des têtards génétiquement modifiés
