Nature is full of biological systems that have developed and optimized themselves for over millions of years. A large part of its growing processes are happening on a microbial level \u2013 invisible to the human eye. In its truest sense we want to take a closer look at this hidden life of microbes, their skills, their qualities and their possible roles in creating more sustainable futures. At this online symposium we bring together five international speakers from different backgrounds to get a better understanding of these so called \u201cliving factories\u201d where mycelium, algae, proteins and bio-minerals are the grassroots for new material developments.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This online symposium is the starting point for two on-site workshops initiated by MAKE. \u2013 Platform for Materials and Technology Transfer at this year\u2019s summer session at the Burg University of Art and Design Halle. The \u201cHow to Grow?\u201d scenarios workshop is organized in collaboration with the cx centre for interdisciplinary studies, AdBK Munich.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This online event can be joined by email registration. Feel free to join us for a backstage look at bio-fabrication and its possibilities for art and design education.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Registration<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Please register by mail at make@burg-halle.de<\/em> until Sunday 20th.
You will receive an email with a streaming-link to join the conference on September 21st.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Maurizio Montalti is a designer, researcher, educator and entrepreneur. He is founder and creative director of Amsterdam-based practice Officina Corpuscoli (2010), where he investigates design-research subjects, reflecting on contemporary material culture as well as on the relationship between human and non-human agents, as part of the relational complexity of the dynamic ecosystem we all belong to. Maurizio is also co-founder, designer, and R&D director of MOGU, an innovation-driven design company dedicated to the creation of high-performance solutions and products deriving from fungi. His work has received many awards and has been on show in museums such as the Museum of Modern Art (New York), Centre Pompidou (Paris), Design Museum (London), Triennale (Milano), MAXXI (Rome), and the Museum of Applied Arts (Vienna).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Julia Lohmann is a Professor of Practice in Contemporary Design at the Aalto University School of Arts, Design and Architecture in Finland. She investigates and critiques the ethical and material value systems underpinning our relationship with flora and fauna. Julia’s research interests include critical practice and transition-design, bio materials, collaborative making, museums and residencies, embodied cognition and practice as research. As designer in residence at the Victoria and Albert Museum in 2013, she established the Department of Seaweed, an interdisciplinary community of practice exploring the marine plant’s potential as a design material. She holds a PhD in Innovation Design Engineering from the Royal College of Art, London.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Bernhard Schipper co-founder of ScobyTec which is currently based in Leipzig, Germany. ScobyTec is developing alternative materials based on bacterial cellulose to realize (vegan) leather substitutes, fibers as substitutes for cotton products and wood-based viscose, bioplastics and composites through biofabrication. We provide scalable process engineering and refining methods that are energy efficient and location independent. ScobyTec received several awards such as the IQ Innovation Prize Leipzig, Hugo Junkers Research and Innovation Award and SMILE Business Award 2019.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Dr. Filipe Nat\u00e1lio is interested in both ancient and modern materials. At the Scientific Archaeology Unit he is using artificial intelligence based algorithms to study prehistoric stone tools in order to better understand our pre-historic ancestors. Another focus of his work explores new and alternative bio-based fabrication methods that combine molecular design with plant sciences towards material farming. A good example is the use of plants (e.g. cotton) as \u201cfactories\u201d for the biological fabrication of a wide diversity of composite materials with tailored functionalities (e.g. smart textiles) allowing further exploitation of wide range of combinations between molecular design and biological systems.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
