About this exposition

Philosopher and biologist Herbert Spencer described society in 1851 as a superorganism with organs, growth and disappearance. Later biologist William Morton Wheeler then used the term superorganism (1910) in relation to his work on ants. Since then, the idea has been developed in many directions. The work "SUPERORGANISM #1 – Bengaluru" is inspired by a residence at the NCBS (National Center for Biological Sciences, Bangalore, India) and the conversations with various scientists, as well as the experience of the intense and vivid megacity of Bangalore.
