Human Biosonar project
Radar, residency Electronic and Electrical Engineering Department at Loughborough University 2009.
Echolocation and perception. Sensing the world though ultrasonic ‘echo-perception’ has many advantages. Ultrasound can be used to penetrate a medium and measure ‘reflection signature’. This not only tells us about the location and shape of an object, but can reveal hidden details about its inner structure, which would not be available to us visually...http://arts.lboro.ac.uk

Biorama 2

University of Huddersfield and the Devil's Arse,
Castleton, Hope Valley, Derbyshire S33 8WS
Workshops: June 24th and 26th, University of Huddersfield.

Biorama2 will explore the biology of the underground through the notion of 'umwelt' developed by Jakob von Uexküll (1864 – 1944) and its influence on the development of biosemiotics by Thomas Sebeok (1920 – 2001). Using the underground of caves and mines and the organic life they contain as a form of parallel terrestrial biology, we develop a 'parallel science' through the study of extreme and/or 'removed lifeforms' and through the science of astrobiology. Biorama II will explore a rich contextual and conceptual background against which to investigate some of the outer (or inner) limits of terrestrial biology and strategies for life…

Can artists work with animals as equals? It has recently been discovered that humans are closer to the higher primates than was previously thought. This exhibition, organised by The Arts Catalyst on the 200th anniversary of Darwin’s birth brings together a group of artists who actively question the sovereignty of the human species over the all other animal species. New Arts Catalyst touring exhibition of new commissions and existing works by artists collaborating with animals. http://www.artscatalyst.org/

Electromagnetic fields are biologically active. Emitting from every electronic device, electromagnetic fields affect our body and the living nature.
