Re-ocurring biohacking architectures

Along the years, biohackers alike have been working on exploring / building / opening / "making" (you name it) laboratories in all kinds of unorthodox contexts. Much of this work has emerged as a challenge to the fixed meaning of the term "laboratory" in the modern history of science, as opposed to its more flexible meaning throughout the earlier history of science and technology.

In early science, the home was often where the laboratory art was pursued, in close juxtaposition to other aspects of ordinary domestic life. William Thomson himself hints at this in suggesting that Archimedes used his bathroom to study the laws of hydrostatics. Similarly, the kitchen that, since the Renaissance, has been most closely linked with the laboratory. As Bruno Latour reminds us, a few years later, in 1865, Claude Bernard presented work in a physiological laboratory as being akin to passage through a “long and ghastly kitchen.” (Goodey, 2008). Far from being self-evidently a place “set apart” for artificial experimenting on the natural world (a narrowly twentieth-century vision of the laboratory), it could be part of the natural world and indeed, nonmetaphorically, the very means for productively elaborating organic life (Kohler, 2002).
