: '''Date:''' 2020
◈ '''ARCHIVIST SUMMARY:''' Transfeminist biohacking publication. Topics: body sovereignty, kitchen-lab estrogen synthesis, endocrine disruptors as environmental pollutants, binary gender critique through biochemistry. Concept of "Bio-Lenta" (slow bio-lence). Open Source Estrogen as tactical subversion — detecting/extracting estrogenic compounds from polluted ecosystems. Connection to Mary Tsang's work.◈

: '''Machine Extraction:''' Based solely on the provided text, the zine's content can be summarized as follows:Subjects and Themes:
• The critique of binary social constructs (gender) and their perpetuation by institutional and corporate actors.
• The intersection of ecological pollution and identity politics.
• The concept of "body sovereignty" as individual dominion over self-identity.
• The concept of "Slow Bio-lence" (derived from "slow violence" and "bio-lence"), defined as the exercise of biopolitical violence against individual decision-making capacity.
• The "Paradox of Disruption," defined as hegemonic power simultaneously polluting bodies and pathologizing dissident gender identities.
• The institutionalization of knowledge and creation of "black boxes" (closed systems inaccessible to amateurs), which undermines the cycle of innovation becoming common knowledge.
• Biotechnology as a form of surveillance and regulation of "normality" based on binaries.Tools and Practices:
• "Open Source Estrogen": A tactical subversion system where estrogenic compounds and endocrine disruptors are detected and extracted from polluted ecosystems.
• The extracted compounds are intended for speculative deployment as birth control and hormone therapy options outside institutional structures.
• The project involves preparing individuals to detect and extract estrogenic compounds, building familiarity with scientific processes to deconstruct technological "black boxes."Workshops:
• No specific workshops are named or

It begins with an introduction to the "BioHacking Node" arising from the Hackmeeting at Calafou in 2012, specifically focusing on the analysis of the (Par)Anoia river. The visual language is defined by high-contrast greyscale collages and dense grids mapping the economic and legal dimensions of technoscience (Market, Litigation, Labor). A significant portion of the zine is dedicated to the "Micro_zine" protocols, detailing the construction of DIY microscopes using telephoto lens hacks and CCD sensors, often housed in mobile briefcase units ("micro lab mobile 2014 pech"). Technical diagrams are interspersed with historical homages to Mary Ward and the "THF!" (TransHackFeminist) movement, emphasizing the creation of "ancestral pussinsight" through decentralized nodes of resistance. The document provides tracing templates for hardware bases and fasteners, promoting a hands-on, replicable approach to "Micro.technology."⚠️ Image-heavy (36pp); analyzed via optimized VIP Greyscale Protocol.

◈ '''ARCHIVIST SUMMARY:''' Documentation of TransHackFeminist days at Wetlab Hangar, Barcelona (June 2021). Organized by Ce Quimera + Gaia Leandra. Questions explored: What is transhackfeminism? How do we care in these practices? How to establish interspecies bonds without colonial/anthropocentric logics? Part of Biofriction project.◈

: '''Machine Extraction:''' Summary of the Zine ContentThe document is a fanzine produced from the "Jornadas TransHackFeministas" (THF) workshops held in June 2021 at the Hangar Wetlab. The zine contains an activation/invitation text that poses a series of questions regarding the definition and practice of transhackfeminism. The questions focus on: understanding transhackfeminism as "hacking with care" and how care is managed in these practices; establishing transversal, interspecies links without colonialist or anthropocentric logics; and the mechanisms of contamination and knowledge transmission within this ecosystem. The stated purpose of the event was not to answer these questions but to create a dialogue through a weekend of collective reading, conversation, and collaborative production of the fanzine. The workshops were proposed by Ce Quimera and Gaia Leandra, resident artists at the Hangar Wetlab, and were conducted within the Biofriction project, invited by Laura Benítez Valero. The document lists 18 named participants involved in the workshops and fanzine production. A URL to the Hangar Wetlab website is provided.

It uses the comic frame as a metabolic protocol to extract the latent energy of shared studios and collaborative making.◈

: '''Machine Extraction:''' Kona Eguchi, born in 1998 in Chiba, Japan, produced the trilingual (JP/EN/ID) zine ZID-051 during a residency at Rumah Bausasran in Yogyakarta, with support from Lifepatch, Kawan Pustaha, and Bauhouse Consorxium. The physical object was printed on-site using an EPSON L360 inkjet printer at Rumah Bausasran. The zine documents procedural observations comparing Japanese artistic systems to Indonesian collective structures, specifically analyzing the RT/RW neighbourhood governance model and tracing its administrative lineage back to Japan’s tonarigumi (neighbourhood group) system imposed during the occupation period. It records the coexistence of multiple collectives within the Bausasran house and references a project titled “White Package Cube.” The narrative further examines the operational challenges of constructing safe spaces, citing issues such as power harassment and surveillance, and contrasts these with a documented “spirit of sharing” encountered in Javanese communal practice.

=== Lahirnya Pekanbaru / Senapelan ===
[[File:pekanbaru_zine_01.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Lahirnya Pekanbaru / Senapelan]]
: '''Author:''' Elhamra
: '''Format:''' Single-page poster-zine, hand-folded into panels
: '''Language:''' Indonesian
: '''Date:''' 2024 (estimated)
◈ '''ARCHIVIST SUMMARY:''' A community-produced historical zine in the form of a single-sheet poster that unfolds into a series of hand-drawn panels exploring the origins of Pekanbaru, Indonesia. Created as part of a local history workshop, the zine merges personal sketching with archival snippets to map the vital landmarks of the city’s pre- and early-colonial past—from the salt godowns and the first cinema to the rumah Tuan Kadi and the enigmatic Karsel Dawa. The author, Elhamra, anchors the narrative “Di Tepian Sungai Siak,” tracing the transformation of the riverside settlement Senapelan into the modern city. The zine functions as a portable, foldable memory device, inviting viewers to literally unfold the layers of Pekanbaru’s identity.◈

: '''Machine Extraction:''' The image resolves into a single large sheet of heavyweight paper, creased four times to make a compact zine. Unfolded, it reveals an intricate, hand-drawn cartography of old Pekanbaru rendered in sepia-toned ink. The Siak River snakes across the lower half, its banks populated by tiny stilt houses and perahu. The title “LAHIRNYA PEKANBARU” is lettered in a bold, slightly wonky serif, while below it “Senapelan” whispers in a softer script—the name of the parent village. Panels emerge like fragments of a dream: a drawing of Gudang Garam, barrels and sacks stacked under a lean-to, with a caption explaining the salt trade that once flowed through the river; a boxy structure labeled Bioskop Pertama, a projector beam radiating from a single window; Rumah Tuan Kadi, a limas-roofed house with intricate fretwork, its yard swept clean; and a stark, long building called Karsel Dawa, bars on its tiny windows, suggesting a colonial jail. Text in Bahasa Indonesia curls around the illustrations—hand-lettered notes on when the first sultan declared the new market, how the cinema came with the Dutch, and the role of the Islamic judge in daily life. All roads, drawn as dotted lines, converge at the river’s edge where Elhamra’s name sits beside a tiny sketch of a hand gripping a pen, dated 2024. The reverse side is blank, the paper slightly rough to the touch, as if it were screen-printed or drawn directly on layout paper.

◈ '''ARCHIVIST SUMMARY:''' "A Workshopology Zine" by Arnont Nongyao & Marc Dusseiller (2023). This extensive document traces the lineage of a specific noise-generating circuit from its origins with Khvay Loeung (a funeral sound master in Phnom Penh) through its replication across Southeast Asia and Europe. It heavily emphasizes "workshopology" as an artistic practice, teaching how to build audio synthesizers from pencil graphite, LDR sensors, and trash.◈

: '''Machine Extraction:''' Based solely on the provided text, the following is a factual summary of the zine's content:Title and Authorship: The zine is titled "GBMN Journey: Gentle But Make Noise, A Workshopology Zine." It is authored by Arnont Nongyao and Marc Dusseiller (aka dusja). It was released in 2023 under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International license.Core Subject: The zine documents the development, execution, and reproduction of a specific creative workshop methodology called "Gentle But Make Noise" (GBMN). The workshop was originally developed by Arnont Nongyao and later reproduced and reflected upon by Marc Dusseiller.Workshop Description: The GBMN workshop is an experimental sound workshop focused on constructing simple noise generators. Participants use local and found objects (e.g., plastic bottles, wood, paper, trash, motorcycle parts) as a base. The noise generator is created by combining a simple electronic circuit with either a pencil drawing or an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) sensor. The workshop concludes with participants playing the instruments together.Origin and Inspiration:
• The simple circuit noise-making technique was taught to Arnont Nongyao by Khvay Loeung (1940-2020), a sound inventor and master of funeral events in Phnom Penh. They used the noise to communicate due to a lack of a common language.
• The name "Gentle But Make Noise" was inspired by a phrase used by Takayuki Yamamoto to introduce Arnont in Sapporo in 2020.
• The first GBMN workshop

: '''Date:''' 2026
◈ '''ARCHIVIST SUMMARY:''' A wild, 8-page workshop manual exploring the craft of tempeh making (fermented soybeans). The zine is notable for its extreme visual whiplash: an aggressive, meme-culture death-metal cover that abruptly transitions into a stark, minimalist, laboratory-grade instructional guide, concluding with an Indonesian tofu/tempeh pun.◈

: '''Machine Extraction:''' The cover operates at maximum visual dissonance: a macro photograph of raw tempeh mycelium fills the frame as background, while the title “TEMPA TEMPE” is set in a luminous red, jagged death-metal typography. A distorted, wildly expressive SpongeBob SquarePants figure sits in the foreground, anchoring the composition firmly in chaotic internet meme culture. Upon opening, the aesthetic collapses into stark minimalism—pure white pages hold simple black clip-art diagrams and terse instructional text. The procedure is broken into five utilitarian steps: boiling, washing, steaming, mixing with starter, and fermenting for 48 hours. Page 7 introduces an Indonesian linguistic pun with a cross-section of tempeh and the text "SEDARI AWAL / AKU MEMANG NGGAK TAHU" (playing on "tahu" as both "know" and "tofu"). The back cover returns to the mycelial macro, declaring it a "RUMBUX GEN-X Publish" presented by "LIFEPATCH citizen initiative in art science and technology." The zine weaponizes a brutal visual whiplash, dragging the reader from a screaming subcultural collage into a silent cooking manual and out again.

◈ '''ARCHIVIST SUMMARY:''' A radical transhackfeminist manual from the BioTransLab project. It leverages DIWO microscopy to deconstruct biopolitical boundaries, focusing on the Biota/Vaginal Flora ecosystem as a site of political and biological self-governance. ⚠️ Image-heavy; analyzed via Agentic Vision Protocol.◈

: '''Machine Extraction:''' A dense, high-contrast collage of biological and political theory. The zine introduces the concept of the "ultra-permeable" body, using DIY (DIWO) microscopy to reveal the hidden ecosystems of human biota. A primary "protocol" described is the **Yogurtssy**—the cultivation of *Lactobacillus* flora harvested from the body to ferment milk into yogurt, presented as an act of radical autonomy. Anatomically, the zine deconstructs binary myths through side-by-side diagrams of the Clitoris and Penis, highlighting their shared homologous structures (Cuerpo cavernoso, Glande). The visual language is what the authors call "hardGlam," mixing clinical imagery (speculums, 5µm scale microscopic slides of *Trichomonas*) with the messy reality of DIY lab environments filled with wires and tangled electronics. It is a manifesto against "capitalocentric logics" and a call to embrace "quantum chaos" as a disturbance of the norm.⚠️ Image-heavy; analyzed via Agentic Vision Protocol.

: '''Machine Extraction:''' Based solely on the provided text, here is a factual summary of the zine's content:Title: "Short guide to circular soil chromatography" (Workshop edition)Subject: Circular chromatography as a method for soil analysis and as an educational workshop tool.Core Technique: The method involves creating a soil extract using a sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution. This extract is then placed on filter paper that has been soaked in a diluted silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution. Capillary forces draw the liquid through the paper, separating soil components by size and chemical properties. The reaction with silver nitrate, which is sensitive to light, produces color patterns.Historical Context: The method was developed in the mid-20th century. It was adapted for soil analysis in the 1950s by Ehrenfried Pfeiffer within the context of anthroposophic ("biodynamic") agriculture, a spiritual philosophy founded by Rudolf Steiner.Workshop Structure: The zine outlines a two-day workshop format, with each day requiring approximately 3-4 hours. Day 1 covers introduction, soil sampling, drying, and making soil extracts. Day 2 covers starting the chromatography, drying the chromatograms ("chromas"), and discussing results. The process includes multiple waiting periods ("gaps").Tools and Materials:

Its scientific validity is disputed, but it follows a strict protocol and yields reproducible results. It is also used for education and to reconnect people to soil.Principle: Liquids travel through filter paper via capillary forces. Components of mixed samples migrate at different speeds based on size and physical/chemical properties.Procedure:1. Extraction: Soil extracts are made using sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to break down organic matter.2. Paper Preparation: Filter papers are soaked with a dilute silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution, which is sensitive to light and reacts with soil components to produce colors.3. Chromatography: The soil extract is applied to the prepared filter paper via a wick. The process is stopped when the solution reaches ~3 cm from the paper's edge.4. Development: Chromas are dried and exposed to indirect sunlight for 2-3 hours.Tools and Materials: Scale (0.1g precision) Measuring glass (50-100ml) Glass jars (min. 100ml) Petri dishes or jar lids Pipette (2-10 ml) Rubber gloves Scissors Silver nitrate (AgNO3) - 0.2g for 20 chromas Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) - 10g for 20 chromas Distilled water - ~1.5l for 20 chromas Filter papers (15 cm diameter) - 22 for 20 chromasSolutions: 0.5% AgNO3 solution (e.g., 0.

: '''Machine Extraction:''' Based solely on the provided text, here is a factual summary of the zine's content.Subject: A low-tech method for producing a soil inoculant, referred to as a "fungal bioreactor," intended for soil regeneration.Core Concept: The bioreactor is a specific type of compost pile designed not to produce fertilizer, but to create a soil additive rich in saprophytic fungi. The product is called an "inoculant" to highlight its purpose of introducing organisms into degraded soils.Key Conditions for Fungal Growth: The method requires woody material as a food source, darkness, humidity, fresh air, and an undisturbed environment for at least 12-16 months.Design Principles:
• The design must ensure conditions for fungal growth while being affordable, long-lasting, and easy to build.
• The ideal location provides shade and a water connection.
• Both designs feature air channels for passive ventilation and a drainage/drip-irrigation system for stable humidity.
• Aeration channels are created using tube-shaped placeholders (e.g., sticks, pipes) with a diameter of ~10 cm, placed before filling and removed after 1-2 days. Maximum distance between channels is 30 cm.Design 1: Classic Design (Wooden Pallet and Wire Mesh)

: '''Date:''' 2022
◈ '''ARCHIVIST SUMMARY:''' Comprehensive DIY microscopy manual documenting the conversion of standard webcams into digital microscopes. It covers hardware hacking, optical inversion, and stage construction, providing a hacker-friendly protocol for exploring the microscopic pluriverse (includes both Full-colour and Short editions in the folder).◈

: '''Machine Extraction:''' Based solely on the provided text, the zine documents the "DIY MICROSCOPE" project by Marc Dusseiller. The project involves converting a standard webcam into a microscope by reversing the lens position. The text provides a list of required materials, including a webcam, pasteboard, duct tape, Blu-Tack adhesive, hot glue, an M4 adjustable screw, a switch, a white LED, a 9V battery, a battery connection, a 1 kΩ resistor, a 20 kΩ potentiometer, insulated wire, garden wire, and rubber strips. Additional tools and materials listed are transparent plastic cups, glass slides, Petri dishes, one-way pipettes, a waterproof felt pen, a small chrome steel spoon, tweezers, and sealable plastic containers.The assembly is divided into three components: the converted webcam, a stable observation platform, and LED illumination. The conversion process is described in two parts: "Small enlargement" (unscrewing the lens) and "Maximal enlargement" (dismantling the webcam, removing the casing with a side cutter, detaching the optics, and reattaching it upside down with duct tape). The platform construction involves fixing the webcam to a 15 x 15 cm piece of pasteboard using Blu-Tack adhesive and installing an adjustable screw with a nut secured by hot glue. The text also notes that the webcam must be tested with a computer and that drivers may need to be installed. The project is associated with the HACKTERIA – OPEN SOURCE BIOLOGICAL ART initiative, which aims to democratize biological research us

=== Methodology: Database Extraction & Agentic Synthesis ===

This report was generated by '''dusjagr''' in collaboration with '''Antigravity''' during the early residency phase of the '''[[Arai-eek|Arai-eek Lab in Chiang Mai]]'''.

The data was extracted directly from the Hackteria central database using legacy PHP/SQL tools, then refactored and stylized using '''Gemini 3 Flash'''. All topics and signature projects have been verified for existence on the Hackteria Wiki. The analysis covers 15+ years of continuous community activity, mapping the heartbeat of the global [[What is hackteria|Hackteria network]] as part of the ''[[Technobiological Futures Co-Laboratories]]'' research.

= Cyber-Tropicality: A New Aesthetic for the Humidity =

'''Cyber-Tropicality''' is not just an aesthetic; it is a survival strategy for the technobiological future. It is the realization that our silicon dreams must learn to thrive in 90% humidity.

[[File:cyber_tropical.jpg|thumb|right|alt=The Neon Canopy: A Cyber-Tropical Vision|The Neon Canopy: A Cyber-Tropical Vision]]

== 🌿 The Neon Canopy ==

In the Cyber-Tropical future, the jungle is not replaced by the city; it is augmented by it. Bioluminescent flora are intertwined with fiber-optic networks, creating a living, breathing internet of trees.

* '''Fiber-Vines''': High-speed data transmitted through organic-synthetic hybrids.
* '''Biolum-Nodes''': Natural lighting sources powered by the forest’s own energy grid.

== ⚡ Solar-Powered Ecosystems ==

We move away from centralized power towards a distributed, solar-first energy model that mimics the efficient energy capture of the jungle canopy.

== 🤖 Agentic Co-Creation (Meta-Documentation) ==

This page is a living experiment in human-AI collaboration. It was authored using the '''Arai-eek Bot''', a toolkit designed to bridge the gap between local Markdown drafting and the [[Hackteria Wiki]].

* '''The Bot''': A Python-based automation engine utilizing and . It enforces a “Local-First” workflow, ensuring that all content is drafted, reviewed, and optimized locally before being committed to the wiki.
* '''The Multi-Model Ensemble''':
** '''Gemini 2.0 Flash''': Lead engineer and primary author of the bot’s core logic and this wiki-integration.
** '''DeepSeek V4 Pro''': Specialist helper for advanced reasoning and visionary prose refinement.
* '''Open Source''': The toolkit is open-source and available on GitHub: https://github.com/arai-eek/arai-eek-wikiBot

=== Core Tenets: ===

# '''Hardware in the Humidity''': Designing electronics with biophilic coatings to resist corrosion.
# '''Slow-Tech''': Respecting the seasonal cycles of the tropical environment.
# '''[[Lannafuturism]] Integration''': Rooting these technologies in local cultural wisdom.

In April 2026, the Hackteria Wiki underwent a surgical security restoration to eliminate over a decade of accumulated spam registrations while protecting our legacy community of human contributors.

=== 🛡️ SECURITY HARDENING ===
The wiki has been moved to a '''Whitelist-Only''' editing model. Access is now governed by the following rules in [[LocalSettings.php]]:
* '''Mandatory Email''': New accounts cannot be created without a valid email address.
* '''SMTP Verification''': Users must click a verification link in their email to enable editing.
* '''The Edit Shield''': Standard users are blocked from editing by default; only members of the emailconfirmed group are granted contribution rights.
* '''Honeypots''': Invisible traps have been set to catch automated registration bots instantly.

=== 🧹 THE PURGE (Surgical Removal) ===
Using custom database tools, we identified and removed '''15,652''' malicious accounts across three phases:
# '''The Ghost Wave''': 15,398 bots from the Feb 2020 spam spike (0 edits).
# '''The Dot-Spam Filter''': Automated accounts using Gmail-alias tricks.
# '''Burner Domain Blacklist''': Accounts registered via temporary email services (e.g., shitmail.org).

=== 💎 COMMUNITY RESTORATION ("THE BLESSING") ===
Unlike a generic database wipe, we performed a surgical restoration to ensure our founders and long-term members were not locked out:
* '''Grandfathered Veterans''': 184 legacy users with more than 3 edits were programmatically "Blessed" with confirmed status, even if their old accounts lacked email verification.
* '''Active Protection''': Users with 1-3 edits have been put on "Probation" (unconfirmed) to maintain a high-signal environment.

Technobiological Futures Co-Laboratories

Dusjagr — Tue, 10 Feb 2026 10:36:15 GMT

Dusjagr: /* Consolidate 15 years of Hackteria practice */

[[File:logoBlinkeshit.gif|thumb]]

== Overview ==

'''Planning and execution of two Co-Laboratories, in Thailand, including a regular series of regional Workshops in South East Asia; Residencies, Networking and Fellowships in Switzerland; Consolidation and Research of Hackteria’s Collective and Transdisciplinary «do-it-with-others» Methodologies.'''

=== What we plan to do ===

Co-Laboratories: mutual learning and knowledge exchange with shared fascination with biology, from ecological science to synthetic biology merging with digital technologies. Linking the Global Hackteria Network & SGMK (Swiss Mechatronic Art Society) with tomorrow.Lab in Thailand and a network of partners in Southeast Asia and India, “Technobiological Futures” emphasizes DIWO participation and experimentation across diverse perspectives through networks of people across disciplines. Co-Laboratories opens a liminal space to question how ecosystems, bodies, and machines evolve together, and how these shifts ripple into politics, culture, and ethics. Participants co‑develop low‑cost instruments, bio‑sensing device art, performances and media works; publish open‑access documentation and hold public hands-on workshops.

Over 18 months, we will:
*'''Establish two intensive "Co-Laboratories"''' (10-14 day collaborative residencies) in Thailand, bringing together 25-30 artists, makers, scientists, and cultural organizers from across the region to develop new methodologies at the intersection of bioart, DIY science, and open source digital tools

*'''Host 3 Swiss-based fellowships''' for key Asian artists/facilitators, creating deep bi-directional exchange rather than one-way knowledge transfer, and connecting them to Switzerland's vibrant maker and hackerspace communities

*'''Expand the network regionally''' through satellite workshops and events in India and Indonesia, catalyzing South-South collaborations that bypass traditional North-mediated routes

*'''Produce open-source outcomes''' including documented prototypes, workshop curricula, digital toolkits, methodological handbooks, and a living network map—all freely accessible for others to adapt and implement

*'''Generate public engagement''' through exhibitions, performances, workshops, and an online symposium that brings our collaborative research to wider audiences

*'''Consolidate 15 years of Hackteria practice''' into transmissible knowledge: documenting techniques, philosophies, and ethical frameworks for equitable international collaboration in art-science-technology fields

=== Conceptual Framework ===

Our present moment demands precisely the kind of collaboration Hackteria has been cultivating. We face converging pressures:

'''**AI and biopolitics:**''' as tools like ChatGPT and proprietary genomic databases and closed scientific publishing consolidate within corporations, placing fundamental research capabilities behind paywalls while open alternatives struggle for resources—artists and communities need pathways to engage critically with these technologies as builders, not just consumers.

'''**The acute environmental crisis**''' in the global south- as we face unprecedented droughts, and species extinction accelerates—communities need accessible tools (DIY sensing, citizen science, bioart) to document or actively slow vanishing ecosystems and imagine alternative futures beyond technocratic solutions or passive victimhood.

'''**Destabilizing persistent colonial knowledge structures**''', where Bangkok-Bangalore exchange still routes through Zurich or Paris rather than occurring directly, and where South Asian/Southeast Asian scientific and artistic production requires Western validation—this project deliberately builds South-South infrastructure with Asian partners leading methodology while Swiss partners provide resources, inverting typical extractive patterns.

'''**Post-pandemic lessons**''' about distributed networks' resilience over centralized systems, and normalized hybrid formats that make sustained international collaboration feasible.

'''**The methodology gap**''' in transdisciplinary practice, where rhetoric outpaces genuine co-creation and Hackteria's 15 years of tacit knowledge urgently needs documentation at a moment when institutions increasingly seek such models.

'''**The crisis of technological determinism**''', where mainstream discourse oscillates between utopian boosterism and dystopian fatalism, leaving little space for communities to assert agency in shaping technologies that serve their values and contexts. In this landscape, Hackteria's commitment to open science hardware, radical transdisciplinarity, grassroots knowledge production, and equitable collaboration isn't just relevant—it's a model urgently needed, and this project allows us to strengthen, document, and transmit it precisely when alternatives to extraction, enclosure, and determinism are most critical.

=== Background of the collaborations ===

This project is nurturing networks in the global hackteria activities that have proven their value over 15 years, giving them the resources to flourish and scale. Founded in India and Switzerland in 2009, and many projects in Indonesia and across Europe. Since OkiWonderLab, 2020 we started to collaborate with Henry Tan (FreakLab) and Weeratouch (Wave) Pongruengkiat (tomorrow.lab), who organized events on bioart with very overlapping networks, which were the first of its kind in Thailand and Singapore attracting a lot of interest across Southeast Asia. It combined 3 months residencies and 1 week of public participatory events. Marc Dusseiller had the opportunity to deepen this partnership through [https://www.hackteria.org/wiki/CMCF#dusjagr.27s_research_.2F_networking_trip_to_Thailand Pro Helvetia’s research trip granted in 2023], which serendipitously led to the co-organizing of a prototype co-lab Laab Lu Lao in January 2024, and now led to this larger partnership programme of “Technobiological Futures”.

== [[CoLabs Chiang Mai|Arai-eek Lab]] ==
[[File:Arai-Eek_CNX_web.jpg|thumb|320px]]
=== Overview ===

Arai-eek Co-Laboratory & Arai-eek Lab Residency is a format of mutual learning and knowledge exchange rooted in a shared fascination with biology - from ecological science to synthetic biology — merged with digital technologies and traditional craft. Linking the Global Hackteria Network and SGMK (Swiss Mechatronic Art Society) with tomorrow.lab and Pa Rang Art Company in Thailand, CoLabs emphasises Do-It-With-Others (DIWO) participation and experimentation across diverse perspectives.

For the Chiang Mai chapter, we introduce Lannafuturism — a speculative framework that asks: What happens when centuries-old Lanna craft knowledge meets open-source technology, biological materials, and experimental art practice?

“Arai-eek” means “what else?” in Thai — a simple question that opens infinite possibilities. Both programs are built on that question.

What else can art become when it grows like an organism?
What else can we create with living materials, waste, microbes, and time?
What else is possible when technology is not only digital, but ecological, handmade, and shared?

Arai-eek Lab is a space for exploring bioart, experimental design, and future living practices. We invite artists, musicians, makers, and curious minds to step into a temporary laboratory where nature and technology are not separate — but intertwined.

“Arai-eek?” — What else can we do? What else can we become?

=== Schedule ===

'''Phase 1: Research Residency (6 weeks)'''

21 April — 30 May 2026

A focused period for invited artists, researchers, and makers to develop new work in response to the Lannafuturism theme. Residents are embedded at Pa Rang Cafe & Art Stay in Chiang Mai with access to fabrication tools, local craft communities, and academic partners.

'''Phase 2: Co-Laboratory (2 weeks)'''

15 — 30 May 2026

An intensive period of collective experimentation, public workshops, and knowledge exchange. Additional CoLabs participants join the residents for hands-on collaborative work culminating in a public showcase day.

[[File:HackerInREsidence_banner.jpg|800px]]

More info on the [https://wiki.sgmk-ssam.ch/wiki/Hacker-in-Residence_Programme SGMK wiki].

For the last couple of years, and especially since we moved into our new space at Bitwäscherei Hackerspace Collective in 2020, we have developed a truly global Residency Programme for hackers, artists, activists from all paths of life. As we share the premises of the MechArtLab together with other great initiatives such as the Hackteria, who runs the Hackteria ZET – Open Science Lab, a local public biolab in Zürich as part of their global network activities.

The Hacker-in-Residence Programme is organized and funded on individual basis, always searching for synergies with other local organisations and events, and is primarily co-ordinated by dusjagr aka Marc Dusseiller, CEO of the Center for Alternative Coconut Research, in his role as as co-founder and board member of both the Swiss Mechatronic Art Society (SGMK) and Global Ambassador of the Hackteria Network in collaboration with Maya Minder, fermentista, artist and currently president of SGMK.

The current CoLabs programme, supported through the Synergies grant from the Swiss Arts Council Pro Helvetia, gives us now a unique opportunity to professionalize, establish and grow this residencies and be able to invite artists/hackers from Southeast Asia to join us during Summer 2026 and later on in our schedule in 2027!

'''Hackteria - International Hackteria Society'''

As a community platform hackteria tries to encourage the collaboration of scientists, hackers and artists to combine their expertise, write critical and theoretical reflections, share simple instructions to work with lifescience technologies and cooperate on the organization of workshops, temporary labs, hack-sprints and meetings. Over the last 15 years Hackteria has been broadening its base of associates and collaborators with the aim of enriching its resources and increasing the possibilities of communication and dissemination. It’s GLOBAL - the virtual knowledge-sharing platform allows learning and participation, which is not restricted by physical location. We have performed workshops in more than 30 countries; it’s DIVERSE – scientists, engineers, artists, philosophers, entrepreneurs, foodies and chefs, academic and citizen initiatives, young and old(er) bring together their interests and expertise; it’s FACE-TO-FACE – through workshops we engage a wider audience in art festivals, academic institutions, and the general public, through the HackteriaLab immersive format we experiment and develop of new models for knowledge sharing and collaboration building.

Under the name “International Hackteria Society”, is an association according to article 60ff of the Swiss Civil Code (ZGB) with seat in Zürich. The association aims to guarantee the organizational and financial processes of the project “Hackteria | Open Source Biological Art”. It wants to further development and access to practical knowledge in artistic engagement with the lifesciences. It wants to create platforms for public discussions and invite international artists and scientists for critical and theoretical discourse. The association works as a non-profit organization to reach its aims.

'''HAZE (German / The Philippines) | International Partner'''

The HAZE Project is a multi-site, multi-year art project that sets out to explore how air and the politics of air are ephemeral and transnational, often connecting and intersecting with patterns of migration and movement of labour. They are submitting a networking and partnership funding (The HAZE Project) from Germany with high overlap with our programme. The founders of HAZE are artist-curator Tengal Drilon and artist-researcher Lyndsey Walsh.In the scope of external funding, we propose to initiate the starting phase of the HAZE Project to establish sustainable international collaborations with partners in Southeast Asia to build out long-term collaborative work researching the intersections between the inherently political, ephemeral materiality of air and modes of being involved in patterns of migration, diaspora, and movements of labour. The intended areas of focus are the Philippines and Thailand in connection with our German hosting institution. We aim for the process of collaborative research to be facilitated by connecting sound artists and researchers with artistic and creative technological researchers working in other areas of media investigation, such as smell, visual arts, food and culinary art, and new media. As stated above, air is inherently an ephemeral material, often alluding national boundaries and borders. However, it carries particulates, living matter, pollution, and other substances that make up a complex composition of interacting matter which shapes our material world. Using sound and performance as a starting point for multidisciplinary investigation, the HAZE project aims to build the social foundations to make a transnational dialogue concerning how air permeates and facilitates the ways culture is shaped and movement is created.

Citizen science has long contributed to the health of local communities by making people aware of their environment in the form of oral histories and traditional wisdom. Recently, international open source and maker movements have been actively engaging with the life sciences to focus on the environment. This brought a revival of the tradional knowledge as well as an opportunity for innovation and a model for public participation in science. These activities are becoming influential policy forces changing how we produce and share knowledge as an iterative and collective process. Yogyakarta, Indonesia, has been one of the most active hubs in this movement.

HackteriaLab 2014 – Yogyakarta was held in April 2014 as a two-weeks making-oriented gathering of researchers, artists, scientists, academicians, hackers and whatevers in Yogyakarta. It expanded on ideas and methodologies about BioArt, DIY biology, DIWO (Do-It-With-Others), appropriate technology, art and science, and biohacking, developed during the previous versions of HLab10 - Dock18, HLab11 - Romainmotier both in Switzerland and HLab13 - Bangalore, India. HLab14 was hosted by LIFEPATCH - citizen initiative in art, science and technology and co-organized together with HACKTERIA | Open Source Biological Art in collaboration with various regional partners.

This book tried to assemble a collection of essays written by the participants, asked to reflect on their own experiences, individually or collectively, which only gives a glimpse into all the projects and exchanges that happend during HLab14. With a short overview of the programme and activities, selected photo impressions and the exhibition manual the book is rounded up and can be an entry point to explore further our online resources and serve as an inspiration for transdisciplinary collaborative practices.
