Um simpósio da Central Saint Martins – UAL O Living Systems Lab explora as propriedades inerentes dos sistemas biológicos vivos para desenvolver conhecimento novo no campo da ecologia através de práticas criativas em áreas como a arte, o design, e a arquitetura. Duas ramificações interligadas juntam a pesquisa sobre design informado pela biologia, como condutor disruptivo para a inovação sustentável, e a pesquisa artística, explorando as inter-relações dentro de ecologias complexas e sistemas em rede. Este simpósio vai apresentar o Living Systems Lab Research Group da Central Saint Martins – University of the Arts London (UAL), e projetos que existem na interseção da arte, do design, da arquitetura, e da biologia: Carole Collet, professora de Design para Futuros Sustentáveis, Heather Barnett, artista e conferencista com Mestrado em Arte e Ciência, Nancy Diniz, arquiteta e Regente do Curso de Mestrado em Biodesign, Alice Taylor, bioengenheira e conferencista em Biologia e Sistemas Vivos e Rob Kesseler, Professor de Arte, Design e Ciência. 24/10/2020 14.00 --> 16.30 Plataforma: Zoom #livingsystemsmaat __________ LIVING SYSTEMS LAB A symposium by Central Saint Martins – University of the Arts London What can we learn from collaborating with biological organisms as artists and designers? How do we integrate living systems in architecture? How do we adopt complex ecological principles within a creative process? How do biological and technological systems interact and intersect? The Living Systems Lab is a research group dedicated to exploring the inherent properties of living systems to develop new knowledge in the field of ecology via creative practices in art, design, and architecture. The lab is structured in two strands: - the (design) & Living Systems Lab explores bio-informed design research as a disruptive driver for sustainable innovation and regenerative design. - The (art) & Living Systems Lab conducts artistic research exploring the interrelationships within complex ecologies and networked systems. Join the Living Systems Lab researchers to learn about their diverse creative practices working with mycelium, slime moulds, microorganisms and nano-structures. They will share their innovative processes integrating scientific and artistic protocols. You will also be invited to take part in an online interactive experiment to consider the living systems around you. The Living Systems Lab is based at Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London and researchers include Carole Collet, Professor in Design for Sustainable Futures, Heather Barnett, Artist and Lecturer MA Art and Science, Nancy Diniz, Architect and Course Leader MA Biodesign, Alice Taylor, Bioengineer and Lecturer in Biology and Living Systems and Rob Kesseler, Professor Emeritus of Art, Design and Science. 24/10/2020 14.00 --> 16.30 Platform: Zoom #livingsystemsmaat : 14.00: Introduction to the Living Systems Lab: Carole Collet and Heather Barnett 14.10: Heather Barnett (talk, interactive experiment with participants/audience) 14.45: Grow Lab Learning Discussion 15.00: Break 15.00: Introduction to session by chair , Adrian Holme 15.15: Presentations from each researcher • Nancy Diniz, Architect and Course Leader MA Biodesign • Alice Taylor, Bioengineer and Lecturer in Biology and Living Systems Challenging the diamond stereotype, from gems to brains • Carole Collet, Professor in Design for Sustainable Futures Biotextiles: towards the next generation of sustainable textiles • Rob Kesseler, Professor of Art, Design and Science Beyond the visible: collaboration and communication through micro-imaging. • Heather Barnett, Artist and Lecturer MA Art and Science Invitations and Interruptions: co-enquiry with living systems 16.15: Q&A
