Houses Built Out of Man Made Green Coral!
Researchers from the University of Greenwich, the University of Southern Denmark, the University of Glasgow and the University College London are working with protocells, which are engineered bubbles of fatty oil suspended in an aqueous solution, reports Discovery News.
Danish scientists even got protocells to behave like the marine organisms that build coral, capturing carbon dioxide in solution and turning it into carbon-based materials. The idea is to ultimately get the process to generate calcium carbonate.
As Gizmag's Ben Coxworth points out, this type of artificial process is already on display, albeit in a futuristic, interactive art installation setting.
Canadian sculptor and architect Philip Beesley's Hylozoic Ground environment presents visitors with arrays of fragile touch sensors.
Scientific designer Martin Hanczyc developed the project's living chemistry feature: protocells that turn visitors' exhalations into carbon-containing solids.
