Abstract：In Bricolage we create autonomous, animated, living, biological entities that have the ability to self-assemble and are hosted in a suspended vessel (Incubator) custom made of clay, metal, and glass. These automatons are made from three main materials: blood, heart, and silk. They are made from bio-engineered human heart muscle cells that grow on bodies made of silk. The muscle cells beat in real time manipulating the automatons’ movement.
