Textbook in PDF format The collaboration between scientists and artists in the form of Artist-in-Lab residencies may not only cause a productive disturbance for a day's work in the laboratory, but also reveal new ways of understanding. Research and science communication company Biofaction has brought together artists and synthetic biologists throughout Europe in a residence program that spans four truly cross-disciplinary collaborations. The contributors to this volume share their reflections of the dynamic frictions that occurred when their artistic and scientific worlds met. These stories, where chemistry labs, tobacco plants, genetically edited bacteria, and new-to-nature enzymes collide with music, photography, film, and visual arts, infuse the ongoing dialogue between art and sciences with grain, noise, and synergies. Introduction Managing creative disturbances Creative mis/understandings: Expectations, outcomes, and frictions in asymmetric art/science encounters Newcotiana About Artist x Laboratory Tobacco: a mass of atoms, a biofactory, and a generous friend Tobacco research through different lenses: reflections on the influences of art in science Sinfonia About Artist x Laboratory Making music with enzymes Rewriting the symphony of life with synthetic metabolism – can enzymes play music? Madonna About Artist x Laboratory Multiscalar forms of resistance: the molecular switch, the bacterium, the individual and the state Towards a new covenant with nature – starred by environmental microorganisms Artist x Laboratory Souls from the deep: a survey through a sticky universe Breathing life into inorganic alien matter Afterword Friction gains in art & science collaboration: more than noise Contributors Image Credits
