FREE, BOOKING REQUIRED
Participate in a mysterious new immersive experience that is part performance, part experiment. Encounter the ethereal glow of bioluminescent bacteria that has captivated humanity for centuries.
Marvel at how these ancient organisms have evolved their extraordinary light through a symbiotic relationship with the Hawaiian bobtail squid, creating a spectacle that transcends time.
Living Light is one of the first studies of human perceptions of beauty in bioluminescent light with the aim of designing sustainable lighting sources in collaboration with living systems for the future.
This project is a collaboration between bioengineer Matt Faria, biomathematician Stuart Johnston, and artists Robert Walton, Madeleine Flynn and Tim Humphrey.
