    Hi,

    My name is Tomek Sysak, and I’m a writer for the Arts and Science Journal in Ottawa, Canada.

    I’m curious to learn about biohacked art, and I wanted to speak to the creators of this site.

    Could we chat sometime. By phone or Skype?

    At Arts and Science Journal we write about how arts can illuminate insights into natural sciences, and I find your stuff really interesting.

    Thanks,
