Liberbio
tomorrow's transhumanists
In a quest to be ever more performant, Liberbios created a device that is able to monitor and analyze oral health with the aim to boost brain performance. The oral microbiota directly connected to the gut microbiota, has an influence on brain health and functions.

01
An all-day
necklace
The Liberbio necklace can be worn all day to measure oral health.
02
constant
communication
When there is dysbiosis of the oral microbiota, the device communicates with the wearer.
03
instant
restoration
The use can place the made-to-mesure gum device in the incubator to restore eubiosis.
why
LiberBio ?
Liberbio researches transhumanism, the desire to optimize the human body functions and how this ideology is having an influence on our lives. With the desire to reach optimal performance of the body through the human/machine fusion, this philosophy also goes hand in hand with the privatization of the living world. Technology is a pharmakon, devouring nature.
the concept
Recent studies suggest that Alzheimer’s disease might take its root in an inflammation of the gut, directly linking oral and gut health to brain functions. Gut bacteria travel to the brain through the vagus nerve and settle in the astrocytes.
the speculation
Wearable devices can increasingly monitor the invisible workings of our bodies. Liberbio speculates that with the rise of DIY microbiology, we will be able to have an influence on previously unattainable brain and human functions.
the object
The Liberbio mouthpiece enables you to monitor your oral microbiota with the aim of boosting brain performance.
in gut we trust
told by marion lasserre
preliminary
concepts

Astrocytes seem to be the preferred habitat of gut bacteria in the brain. “Brain diseases are characterized by the active inflammatory state of the astrocytes. In particular, the loss of astrocytes function as a result of cellular senescence could have implications for the neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer disease and Huntington disease, and for the aging brain.”

why doing this exhibition ?
This exhibition is about our bodies, about our bacterias, about symbiosis with the living. This exhibition is about questioning our technology-centered idea of progress and the commoditization of our bodies.

This is what speculative is all about : creating new imaginaries for a "world of tomorrow" yet to come.
imprudence's residency program
Imprudence is a speculative design studio. This critical discipline is under-represented in France. This is why we decided to create our own residency program, aimed at young designers willing to invent the world of tomorrow.

marion lasserre, designer
Marion Lasserre (1993) is a speculative designer and futures researcher, based between Paris and London. Through her work, she creates speculative narratives, installations, machines and objects that explore the invisible links between the human body, technology,  science, myths and popular culture. A recent graduate of the MA Material Futures at Central Saint Martins in London and of Parsons the New School for Design in New York.  Her work has been exhibited at the Design Museum London, Milan and Dutch Design Week.
