Hasta La Ideas

As part of iGEM Championship Jamboree, the Internationally Genetically Engineered Machine competition run annually for undergraduate students to experiment with a kit of biological parts, the Synthetic Aesthetics research project will be running a seminar today at MIT Media Lab to discuss the collaboration between synthetic biology, art and design.

Synthetic Aesthetics is an ongoing interdisciplinary research project run by the University of Edinburgh and Stanford University that brings together scientists, engineers, artists and designers in collaborative projects to explore shared territory in the process, interaction and directions for future work with biological design.
