First trimester: Register to donate sperm here!

First Trimester

Krishna and Logan want to have a child. But they need a sperm donor.

"My name is Krishna and I am a performance artist. I also want to have a baby with my partner Logan, and we need your help! In order to have this baby, we need to find a sperm donor. This got me thinking about all the different qualities I want in our donors. Sperm bank websites list characteristics such as height, ethnicity, eye colour and whether or not they have a PhD, but we don't really care. A lot of the questions I have for these donors are instead about the traits that are important to me in people - beyond genetics - that you don't find on sperm donor websites."

In the three-hour performance, at the aua on 10 and 11 May, Krishna will interview eleven willing donors live on stage each evening and select the ideal person from around the world.

To take part in First Trimester as a candidate - not only with sperm but also with a new idea for family planning - you can register in advance at the following link. A member of the aua team from Bern will schedule a preliminary meeting with you via Zoom.
