The Quantum Global Organoid Orchestra (GOO) is an experimental art–science collaboration that brings together living neural tissue, generative media, and networked human participation to explore new forms of emergent, cross-species creativity. The project centres on brain organoids—lab-grown clusters of neural cells cultivated in partnered neurobiology labs—which produce spontaneous electrical activity. This neural activity is captured through microelectrode arrays (MEAs) and translated in real time into sound, visual structures, and computational behaviours. In this sense, the organoids function as active “performers” within a hybrid ensemble composed of biological, human, and machine processes.
