The Algae Opera is a live art piece as featured in Wired, Huffington Post and Animal.  The piece seeks to explore food in the age of biotechnology.

The year is 2060. Algae is the new Sunday Roast. The dinner plate is the new opera house. Step into the future and meet the algae opera singer, transformed with biotechnology to grow algae with her breath. Listen to her aria. Taste her song.

Collaborators: After-Agri, Gameshow Outpatient, Sam Lewis, Louise Ashcroft. Photography Matt McQuillan
