A Biopunk Manifesto - Meredith Patterson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Thn7d7-jywU (transcribed version @ http://maradydd.livejournal.com/496085.html )
Digital biology
Information in nature is stored in the abstract code, the DNA. The DNA copies itself by the help of a molecular system.
Cloning
"In biology, cloning is the process of producing similar populations of genetically identical individuals that occurs in nature when organisms such as bacteria, insects or plants reproduce asexually. Cloning in biotechnology refers to processes used to create copies of DNA fragments (molecular cloning), cells (cell cloning), or organisms" (wikipedia A)
