This is the man who implemented a fragment of Heraclitus into the gene of the white eyes of fruit flies, who made bacteria listen to jazz, who put a map of the Milky Way into the ear of a mouse and broadcasted vaginal contractions into space. This is the man who grew the information about intransitivity of human being back to the biological world, whose life story is driven by curiosity, creativity, and a desperately honest interest in the use and evolution of human capabilities. Joe Davis, the man who kissed an alligator… This conversation was compiled from private talks and public discussions during Ars Electronica 2012.

The international open call for the best interview with a cultural worker received over 80 submissions. Jury formed by MoTA, CIANT and WRO decided to award the First Prize and three Honorable Mentions. The winner received a 1000,00 eur prize and a visit to the opening week of the 15th WRO Biennale in Wroclaw. The award ceremony took place at DCF Cinema House in Wroclaw on 8 May 2013.

The interview was published in the Outerviews book.
