Workshop Growing, Forming and Living (with) Microalgae with Johann Bauerfeind

Scheduled for 04/12/2023 and 04/13/2023.

In this workshop, participants will learn how to culture microalgae by crafting an ideal environment for microbial cultures. They will also acquire basic microbiological and biotechnological skills essential for working with cyanobacteria Nostoc, also known as blue-green algae. By the end of the workshop, participants will have a solid understanding of microalgae cultivation and its potential applications in interactive art projects.

Johann Bauerfeind has a master’s degree in life science engineering from HTW Berlin – University of Applied Sciences. He is the founder of Solaga, a start-up in the centre of Berlin that cultivates algae for air purification.
