London pigeons bombarded the city soap
The London inventors Cohen and Tuur van Balen (Cohen and Tuur Van Balen) see pigeons as a very useful form of life that was bred for the delivery of mail, espionage and just for decorative purposes. In order to make the pigeons even more credibility and literally "clear their name", the Studio has offered an interesting and rather unusual project called "Pigeon D'or". His goal is to quietly "teach" urban feathered creatures to not produce droppings, and small portions of soap-like substances. How is that possible?
One component of the project is the house bird feeder made of wood and vinyl (size 115 x 170 x 180 cm). The design is attached to the sill and serves as the inventors of something like "volunteer laboratory", where guests are gladly visited by eat grain and bread crumbs.
However pigeons do not realize that in the stern there is a little surprise: it is specially added Lactobacillus (Lactobacillus). Them for birds specifically picked James Chapple (James Chappell) is a higher scientific officer in the Department of biochemistry and molecular biology of Franciscolo College of Sciences and arts (Franklin Cjllege of Arts and Sciences), Georgia. The addition of these bacteria in the diet of pigeons will help to change their metabolism so as to transform them into mini-factories for the production of soap.
Lactobacillus constitutes the major part of lactic acid bacteria and was so named because most of its members convert lactose and other types of sugar to lactic acid. Everyone knows that they are present in the human body and help suppress the growth of some harmful bacteria. Some strains of Lactobacillus as well have therapeutic properties including anti-inflammatory and antitumor effect. Therefore, consuming natural dairy products (only home), you can strengthen the immune system and prolong youth for many years.
Don't hurt the pigeons a new diet? Maybe he'll even do them a favour. The watchers are always advised not to feed birds chips, crackers, pasties and other greasy food – their livers are not equipped to handle it. It is true that birds do not understand and eat whatever we have. So: new to pigeons lactobacilli produce lipase (Lipase), or steapsin (steapsin) is an enzyme that helps to digest, dissolve and fractionate fats, fatty acids, fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K), turning them into heat and energy. By the way, the lipase is registered as food additive E 1104.
Of course, the result of a bold experiment soap for yourself pigeons to clean the feathers will not. But London will get some advantages: all the bird "gifts" will be easy to disappear from bumpers, benches and roofs for the first rain – and it is known in Britain not have to wait long. If the city will gradually become cleaner, and even without any chemicals, you probably will be cleaner and the pigeons... Yet the project is only experimental, but think about it – what are the prospects!
From the creative Duo from London, there are many other unusual undertakings in the field of art and design. They compare natural and artificial, to find a compromise in fictional objects, videos and photos.
