SUMMARY:NATURE Lab Workshop with Oron Catts: In the Lab
DESCRIPTION:NATURE Lab\, in collaboration with the Arts Department at RPI\, is offering the following workshop the day before his speaking event on 3/19/14. Catts will lead this workshop which will cover some of the main techniques of regenerative biology that are used for in vitro meat and will explore the broader cultural and artistic implication of using living tissue within non-medical context.The idea of growing products rather than manufacturing them has been explored and critiqued through the notion of the semi-living by the Tissue Culture and Art Project (TC&A) since 1996. It stems from the developments in biomedical research in the 1990s\, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine specifically. The premise was that we can evoke the latent regenerative abilities of the biological body to grow organs and tissues either inside or outside of the biological or techno-scientific bodies. Like with synthetic biology\, the engineering mindset of making products out of living being needs to be scrutinized. In the context of tissue engineering\, in-vitro meat and in-vitro leather are two of the main examples. Oron Catts has grown both meat and leather using tissue engineering and was the first person to grow and eat a piece of in-vitro meat.

SUMMARY:Launch of NATURE Lab Featuring "Ecological Interventions" with Brandon Ballengée and Oliver Kellhammer\, and Presentation by Oron Catts
DESCRIPTION:Join Oron Catts (who will be presenting his BioArt work later in the evening) and Kathy High in an informal walk-through of “Ecological Interventions” and celebrate the launching of NATURE Lab! Internationally-renowned environmental artists Brandon Ballengée (U.S.) and Oliver Kellhammer (Canada) care deeply about our ecology and our future. Their projects explore how we as citizens of the world can change our impact on the environment. The exhibition shows photographic evidence of their experiments and explorations. Ballengée works with aquatic systems\, rivers\, streams\, swamps\, to look at the biodiversity of our waterways and how to repair and deal with pollutants. Kellhammer is a permaculturalist who has worked over years to plant the earth with remediating vegetation. Kellhammer and Ballengée have a mission to help us all learn how to interact with our environments\, and look for signs of damage to aid in the repair that is necessary. Both artists are determined to teach citizens to become scientific investigators able to change their local ecosystems. Exhibition curated by Kathy High.  \n\n\n\nWith support from NEA “BioArt in an Industrial Wasteland\,” NY State Museum and the Arts Department\, School of Humanities\, Arts and Social Sciences at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.

SUMMARY:Oron Catts of SymbioticA and the Tissue Culture and Art Project
DESCRIPTION:Oron Catts is an artist\, researcher\, and curator whose pioneering work with the Tissue Culture and Art Project\, which he established in 1996\, is considered a leading biological art project. He is the founding director of SymbioticA\, which he co-founded in 2000\, an artistic research centre housed within the School of Anatomy\, Physiology and Human Biology\, The University of Western Australia. In his presentation\, Oron Catts will draw on his extensive experience of using tissue engineering for non-medical and artistic ends to speculate about what leads to these applications and their possible future development and applications. Avoiding utopian and dystopian postures\, opting instead to present scenarios open to be contestably challenged\, this talk will also highlight some philosophical and ethical considerations stemming from new technological approaches to life\, relating fields such as synthetic biology and metagenomics. Co-sponsored by iEAR Presents!
