Thanks to everyone who showed for the Bioreactor hackathon! We got a surprising amount done in 5 hours or so.
Here's what we've got so far (airpump and tubing not shown):
Not too shabby! We definitely need to work out a system to more evenly distribute the air to all four tubes, but otherwise things worked remarkably well. Alex H. has taken it home to see what else he can do with it (he has something ingenious planned, no doubt).
Not sure when the next hackathon will be, but I'll post here as soon as I know.
Peace,
