Ep.95 | Artist, designer Lin Pei-Ying delved into the fascinating world of viruses and how genomes offers us a look into our past, the origin of why we believe viruses are hostile, how viruses inform her work and how her work addresses the relationship between knitting and genomes, and we talked about how humanity can benefit from the development of AI.

Pei-Ying Lin is an artist/designer from Taiwan and is currently based in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. She is a PhD Candidate in the department of Industrial Engineering and Innovation Science and the Department of Industrial Design at the Eindhoven University of Technology. She also holds a MA in Design Interactions from the Royal College of Art, UK and a BSc in Life Science from National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan.

Recently she has been focusing on manipulating the boundary of invisible/visible, living/non-living and finding ways to build tools and methods that facilitate such explorations. 

She has won the Honorary Mention of STARTS Prize 2020, Honorary Mention in Hybrid Arts Category of Ars Electronica 2015, Professional Runner Up in Speculative Concepts of Core 77 Awards 2015, and BioArt and Design Award 2016.
