“…Finally, Lara Tabet's residency project also took a different direction than the imagined audio-visual art piece, combining gathered scientific data, footage, images, and sound -but, in her case, it turned into a concrete, hands-on experience of actually staging conceptually challenging lab micro performances (Hauser, 2020). Both works revolve around the question of "how can we discuss agency and labor in wet media art?"…”

The collaboration between scientists and artists in the form of Artist-in-Lab residencies may not only cause a productive disturbance for a day's work in the laboratory, but also reveal new ways of understanding. Research and science communication company Biofaction has brought together artists and synthetic biologists throughout Europe in a residence program that spans four truly cross-disciplinary collaborations. The contributors to this volume share their reflections of the dynamic frictions that occurred when their artistic and scientific worlds met. These stories, where chemistry labs, tobacco plants, genetically edited bacteria, and new-to-nature enzymes collide with music, photography, film, and visual arts, infuse the ongoing dialogue between art and sciences with grain, noise, and synergies.

This paper describes PlantConnect, a real-time interactive system which explores human-plant interaction via the human act of breathing, the bioelectrical and photosynthetic activity of plants and computational intelligence to bring the two together. Part of larger investigations into alternative models for the creation of shared experiences and understanding with the natural world, the work is presented as a concrete implementation of a possible model based upon reciprocal interplay and information flows between human and non-human worlds.

In this article, the authors reveal a new significance for the phrase “deliberately maladjusted” (borrowed from video art of the 1970s and its critical interventions) in the act of microbial image processing using two artworks by the authors: A Medium for Images or Luminous Bacteria and ‘イ’ (1926) by BioLuminescent Bacteria. In contrast to early video experimentations, contemporary computational image processing simulates and manipulates various visual media in a manner well-adjusted for digital computation and display. The authors reconsider the historical process of image processing with living entities and microorganisms as they attempt to extend the possibility of works being deliberately maladjusted.
