BIOS in Search of Zoe: Ecological Graphic Novel

By Assia Crawford

In her groundbreaking new publication, Dr. Assia Crawford takes readers
on a captivating journey at the intersection of architecture, science, and
critical theory.

A distinguished Assistant Professor in Technology with a
Ph.D. in Architecture, Crawford pioneers a visionary exploration of bio-design practices, experimental bio-fabrication methods, and the ethical
considerations surrounding the manipulation of living organisms.
This unique work emerges from Crawford's creative practice research, which
is deeply rooted in the development of biological material alternatives
and digital fabrication practices tailored for a post-Anthropocene era. The
ecological graphic novel format serves as a dynamic medium for conveying
complex ideas about the symbiotic relationship between human and non-
human entities, pushing the boundaries of traditional academic discourse.
