DESCRIPTION:Luc Henry\nLiving Instruments is a collaborative project bet
 ween London-based musician Serge Vuille (under the umbrella of his project
  WeSpoke) and the DIY biology community of the Swiss-based community labor
 atory Hackuarium. It is a musical composition for a series of instruments
  that use yeast\, moss\, paramecia and other living organisms to gener
 ate music. By interacting with the organisms and recording the sounds\, ga
 s bubbles\, pressure\, and movements they generate\, the artists can trans
 form data into music\, creating a live\, semi-improvised musical piece.\n\
 nBio: As a former researcher and journalist\, Luc Henry has a strong inter
 est in discussing the impact of new technologies on society\, in particula
 r in the fields of biotechnology and health. He founded Hackuarium to prov
 ide a space where people learn by making\, not just with pairs\, but with 
 people from a variety of background. When he is not advocating for more op
 enness in Science\, he's working on Living Instruments and other crazy pro
 jects.
