Bioluminescent Bulb

Bioluminescent Bulb

A student from the master in Advance Architecture  came with the idea to cultivate bioluminescent bacterias. She found vibrio fischeri in squids bought in a local market.  She was able to fabricate her own agar with local products and eventually grow some bioluminescent colonies.
