==Presentation==
==Presentation==
There are several ways to present the portrait.
===photo collage===
Combining only the photos of the bacteria or combining the photos of the bacteria with photos from the person. If the collages are made in the same pattern, they are at the same time an individual portrait and comparable.


One of them is a photo collage. Combining only the photos of the bacteria or combining the photos of the bacteria with photos from the person.
===exhibition===
Photos of each person's individual bacterial cultures are displayed side by side. This shows the answer to the question: How different are our bacteria?


Another way of presenting is an exhibition. Each person would have their own wall. The photos could be presented individually and in close-up. Both, the direct photos and those under the microscope. Instead of showing the photos, one could also display the petri dishes with the bacteria. With a microscope provided, the visitors could actively participate.
To get to the bottom of the question 'is this a potential way to present oneself', comments are added by the volunteers. One to three sentences about their first thoughts when they saw their bacteria portraits.


Alternatively, the bacteria could be grown on a larger culture medium for better presentation.
Interactive part: In this experiment only 5 body parts are looked at. But there are many more bacteria to discover on human bodies. Therefore, petri dishes with colonies are provided. The visitors can guess which part of the body it is. The solution can then be looked at independently.
