Drinking Brecht: An automated laboratory performance

  • slideshow_large

Synopsis

Using DNA extracted from a hat worn by actors in Bertolt Brecht’s Berliner Ensemble, DRINKING BRECHT is an interactive installation that explores the past and present of genetics and synthetic biology. A documentary you can drink, the work ingests worn-out scientific narratives and turns them into a marxist-feminist ritual.
