Ova futuristička umjetnica želi da pošalje vaš DNK na Mjesec

U svojoj interaktivnoj umjetničkoj instalaciji "Odjeci iz doline postojanja", Amy Karle prikuplja i šalje digitalne i DNK uzorke na mjesec. Ovaj projekt, koji spaja biotehnologiju s umjetničkim izražavanjem, poziva na razmišljanje o nasljeđu bioloških i digitalnih ostataka čovječanstva, potičući kontemplaciju o tome kako bi buduća bića mogla interpretirati odjeke naše trenutne egzistencije.

Das Künstlerbuch als multimediale Enzyklopädie: Visuelle Schnittstellen in Buchprojekten aus Kunst und Wissenschaft

Marlene Barts Buch untersucht die Verbindungen zwischen Künstlerbüchern und Enzyklopädien, wobei sie die Naturgeschichte als gemeinsamen Bezugspunkt wählt. Amy Karles innovative Arbeiten werden als herausragendes Beispiel für die Verschmelzung von Technologie, Kunst und Naturgeschichte hervorgehoben. Karle integriert digitale, biologische und physische Systeme, um die Grenzen der Wissensvermittlung zu erweitern. Das Buch betont, wie ihre transdisziplinäre Herangehensweise an das Sammeln und Organisieren von Daten traditionelle Ordnungssysteme herausfordert und neue Möglichkeiten für die Entwicklung virtueller Räume und das Wissen im digitalen Zeitalter aufzeigt.

Bio Artists Face an Uncertain Future

‘American bio artist Amy Karle… primarily works in the computer technology sub-genre of bio art… and examines how technology and biotechnology impact the human body. In recent artworks from the 2010s, she made a 3D-printed heart form that pulses biomechanical, ...and a scaffold in the shape of a human hand seeded with donated human cells … At the heart of these works by Karle, Catts, Zurr, and Anker is a perceptual license to explore the philosophical and spiritual aspects of the life sciences that traditional biologists, neurosurgeons, or chemists are not typically granted.’
