The workshop was held at Udruga Metamedij, Pula, Croatia from 16 to 19 July 2018.

As we keep blurring the boundaries between nature and technology and regard living beings as raw material that can be manipulated and printed new emerging and fascinating perspectives emerge towards the concept of hybrid.

As designers, artists and scientists are bridging blood, flesh and tissue with pixels and algorithms what will be the future social and ethical implications for society in general? 

Participants had the opportunity to extract their own DNA at the Croatian Institute of Public Health for the Region of Istria and explore 3D printing modelling.
