Description

How can we broaden our experience of communication between humans, animals and things through the use of experimental objects, arrangements and interfaces?

We will offer the opportunity to continue projects from the last semester.

Beschreibung

The project invites students to work in our DIY Biolab. It is highly recommended to choose one of our 'Fachmodules' dealing with Bioart and electronics.

The students are also invited to participate at the Seminar of Rebekka Ladewig Medien des Vitalen which will be in english.
