SYNTHESIS
A 6-day intensive exchange laboratory for artists, designers, synthetic biologists, engineers and others. The course is run by the Arts Catalyst, UCL and Synthetic Aesthetics, in partnership with SymbioticA.
Exchange Laboratory: 4-9 July 2011
Location: University College London
Deadline for applications: 10:00 am, Monday 4 April 2011
Synthetic Biology is an emerging area of research which applies engineering principles to biology. Synthesis will be an intensive exchange laboratory for artists, designers, synthetic biologists, engineers, and others from relevant disciplines, collaboratively exploring synthetic biology's ideas and techniques and its social and cultural implications. The exchange laboratory will be devised and led by scientists including Prof John Ward (UCL) in collaboration with artist/designers Oron Catts (SymbioticA UWA/Royal College of Art) and Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg (Synthetic Aesthetics). It is organised by The Arts Catalyst, UCL and Synthetic Aesthetics.
