Arthur I. Miller (UK) is Emeritus Professor of History and Philosophy of Science at University College London. He received a PhD in physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. From 1991 to 2005 he was Professor of History and Philosophy of Science at University College London, where he founded the Department of Science & Technology Studies. He is the author of several books, including Insights of Genius: Imagery and Creativity in Science and Art, Einstein, Picasso: Space, Time and the Beauty that Causes Havoc, Empire of the Stars: Friendship, Obsession and Betrayal in the Quest for Black Holes, and recently published, Deciphering the Cosmic Number: The Strange Friendship of Wolfgang Pauli and Carl Jung, which explores how through Jungʼs psychoanalysis, Pauli came to understand his creative powers while at the same time enabling him to cope with his complex life.

An observatory of vivid hallucinations is produced within the eye itself, arising due to interference in the signal from the eye to the primary visual cortex. These complex interference patterns are spherically transformed in accordance with the retinotopic map.

The original proto-cell, a direct chemical ancestor of lipid membranes, soap film comprised the foam of the primordial prebiotic soup. The sensitive skin of a soap bubble is capable of swallowing laser light as if it were confined by a waveguide antenna. In this performance, bubble-trapped laser beams reveal the biomorphic molecular dynamics inside of soap film membranes.

Once set in motion, the performerʼs software gradually gains independence, while the performer, on the other hand, gradually loses control over the processes which he initially directed. The result is a runaway process whereby the system continues to develop a growing complexity.

E. coli bacteria, the humble organisms with whom we share a symbiotic relationship, were genetically modified with iGem bio-bricks to express three different kinds of fluorescent proteins; red, green, and cyan. The bacteria were captured trough time-lapse laser-scanning confocal microscopy while undergoing growth and movement experiments. Processes that normally occur on the scale of 500 nanometers are suddenly visible a hundred thousand times their original size. This project was made possible with the support of the California NanoSystems Institute and the University of California Institute for Research in the Arts.

The simple system of a closed feedback loop is developed, transformed, mutated, translated and after each iteration, it is mirrored and compared with real life strings of biological data available through online databases such as Genbank. In its most ideal situation during one performance the initial system transforms into a computer generated form equivalent to the fingerprint of animals or plants.
