Labitat.dk A creative space for makers and hackers in Copenhagen

Hacker culture:

The hacker culture is a subculture of individuals who enjoy the intellectual challenge of

creatively overcoming and circumventing limitations of systems to achieve novel and clever

outcomes.[1] […] hacking entails some form of excellence, for example exploring the limits of

what is possible,[3] thereby doing something exciting and meaningful.[2] Activities of playful

cleverness can be said to have "hack value" and are termed "hacks"[3] (examples include pranks

at MIT intended to demonstrate technical aptitude and cleverness). The hacker culture originally

emerged in academia in the 1960s around the Massachusetts Institute of

Technology (MIT)'s Tech Model Railroad Club (TMRC)[4] and MIT Artificial Intelligence

Laboratory.[5]

A Bioreactor

A Bioreactor is a symbiosis between algae, bacteria and a human being. The bacteria

generate electricity from the dead algae,in the tubes. The electricity should not be seen as

power but as a signal telling about the status and wellbeing of the symbiosis. It’s an interface

between ITC and biology that maybe can substitute simpel touch screens.

What now…

• Open R&D, Open Innovation

• Agile Leadership & Agile Transformation

• BioBauhaus

• Designing and consulting about the biobased

society, biomass, biorefinaries & bioenergy

We can work with, and have models for:

• Agriculture

• Meteorological and climate models

• Automated green house nursery systems

• Medical and pharmaceutical production

• Industrial biotechnology

• Waster water treatment plants

How might we create a biobauhaus institution that can combine biotechnology with art, design, digital technology and architecture, and where we can prototype our common sustainable future…
