v*i*d*a lab projects in 2007 : review at WMMNA.com

Alejandro Tamayo (CO) is an artist-engineer and a teacher working in the intersections of design, art and new technologies. Alejandro has initiated the v*i*d*a lab project at the Aesthetics Department of Javeriana University in Bogotá, Colombia.

v*i*d*a lab is a special study project for students of industrial design, at Universidad Javeriana, Bogotá, Colombia. The students explore the question ‘What is life?’ with the aid of 6 visiting teachers from different disciplines (biology, sociology, etc). The students explore the border between nature and technology, between designed and self-organised systems.

Alejandro Tamayo will present his own work at Pixelache Lounge, will give a presentation at Pixelache University seminar on Friday 14 March.
