Curator forced to kill out-of-control bio-art exhibit

In a world where Science Fiction deals with out-of-control creations, such as Frankenstien and Zombies and goodness only knows what else, it's a little disconcerting (and a little exciting) to see that in our reality, just a simple art exhibit can create such a parallel.

This article piqued my interest, and still makes me think about the nature of life, and creating life. See what you think.

  • Pretty cool article...

    Reminds me of one of my favorite pieces of art.

    Damien Hirst made a piece many years ago that was made out of two large plexiglass boxes that were conected with a clear tube. In one box he put a rotting decapitated pigs head. It was covered in maggots and flies were swarming around it...

    In the second box, Hirst placed a bug zapper and at the bottom of the cube there was a pile of dead flies that had flown over from the first cube. So, Hirst had essentially captured the cycle of life in one piece. An amazing accomplishment to me at the time and still to this day...

  • I agree with the person who said that just because it can grow does not make it sentient life. The 'killers' should not lose any sleep over it.
