[an excerpt from Maggic:] // In response to the various ways that institutions both pollute and regulate our bodies through hormones, the Estrofem! Lab develops various methods of "freak science" for hacking estrogen and demonstrating its molecular colonization. From yeast biosensors for detection to DIY column chromatography for urine-hormone extraction, these recipes serve as kinds of ’biotechnical civil disobedience,’ combining body-gender politics and queer discourse with civic science. The workshop will begin with a short presentation followed by hormone-extraction action. Bring your own urine!

January 19, 2017: Norton Clapp Theater at the University of Puget Sound, Art + Sci Salon reading excerpts from Mr. Burns.

When there’s no more electricity, and multiple population destroying events, how do human memories get preserved? Set month after the disaster, and then seven years and seventy-five years later, Anne Washburn’s Mr. Burns: A Post Electric Play is both a comedy and then a ritual tragedy about a community preserving itself with the most unlikely of stories.
