‚Nature‘ still stands for ideas of originality and self-organizing. Something hard to be reproduced by a machine. The aim of the workshop was to discuss and find possibilies of ‚biological computing‘ with artistic strategies.


Topics: biochips, self-organization, machines for modeling biological systems, artificial neural networks, genetic programming, bionics, biocomputer, parasitic strategies, simbionts and their hosts.
