Bacteria interaction with painting Goal: to combine drawings/paintings with bacteria

First try:

• Cluing the drawings on some stable underground, to prevent them from rolling when they are getting wet

• Cooking medium (source: Miga’s protocol) Glucose – 10 g Peptone – 2.5 g Yeast extract – 2.5 g Na2HPO4 – 1.35 g Citric acid – 0.75 g Distilled water – 500 ml Agar – 7.5 g

• Putting the medium on the drawings

• Putting the medium on the drawings • Putting them into a box • After 3 days:

 -->Maybe the water with the nutrients was soaked into the paper  -->Maybe there is no need for the agar in the medium, because the bacteria are growing good just on the paper (see second try)

• After 2.5 weeks:
