CalArts Caltech Jellyfish: A Scientific Collaboration of Cellular Bioanimation

CalArts, Langley Hall

CRITICAL STUDIES: Three CalArts students have joined team Caltech in this year's upcoming International Genetically Engineered Machine competition. This Thursday they will present the animations and discuss the novelty of animating on a living screen. They will show petri dishes containing e. coli bacteria genetically modified to glow on exposure to projected light. These luminescent proteins were derived from jellyfish found off the California coast.

This event is free and open to the public. Contact Douglas Goodwin for more information: dgoodwin@calarts.edu.
