Self-experimentation is a long-standing tradition in which physicians, scientists, and other practitioners test treatments, remedies, and prototypes on themselves, often through 鈥渘 of 1鈥� trials. As a practice, self-experimentation defies clinical and research protocols by collapsing the researcher and the research subject鈥攁n auto-enquiry meant to scrutinize one鈥檚 embodied analysis for the benefit of others. In the 21st century, self-experimentation has taken on a broad variety of increasingly mainstream forms, from quantitative self-tracking technologies and personalized medical treatments to DIY biohacking and pharmaceutical human challenge trials. Artists, in turn, also create inventive self-experiments, ranging from corporeal interventions to bio-art and ecological interactions. This presentation examines documents and objects that relate to legacies of self-experimentation at the Osler Library of the History of Medicine, as viewed by an artist who carries out body-based, durational work along these lines. 听
