Revivification: Artist Talk

From organoids to AI: Can creativity exist outside the body? Meet the team behind Revivification , the bio-art installation that transforms living neural tissue grown from the blood cells of experimental composer Alvin Lucier into an ever-changing sonic environment. Developed through years of collaboration before Lucier’s death, the work explores the possibility of extending an artistic practice beyond the lifespan of the artist. Guy Ben-Ary, Nathan Thompson, Stuart Hodgetts and Matt Gingold unpack the scientific, artistic and ethical questions at the heart of the work. From lab-grown brain organoids and machine intelligence, they challenge our understanding of what it means to be alive. Hosted by Monica Lim .
