The synthetic biology supermarket 9/11 | |||
the idea is to create an supermarket, that sells products, that are made possible through synthetic biology. | |||
The concept of a supermarket is used as an conceptual umbrella to give a insight | |||
on the possibilties offered by syn. bio. | |||
the aim behind that is to make synthetic biology more accessable and understandable | |||
the target group are 'ordinary people' | |||
hence the vehicle of the supermarket, as a metaphor everyone can relate to. | |||
about 30 synthetic biology 'products' shall be developed | |||
about a third of them as from existing previous igem competions | |||
aim is to engage the thinking about synthetic biology | |||
to inspire the debate about that | |||
folowing the idey, that a well informed person will not face synthetic biology with anopinion that is based on irrational emotions, but on facts. | |||
engaging thought through different acceptance levels of different products | |||
-some will be concidered esiribla, useful, neccessary, other not as neccessary, but potentionally nice to have, or at east interesting. and some shall even be not desirable, or focussing more on the negative implications of synthetic biology | |||
the concept is based on xxx pillars | |||
**a web based virtual supermarket / shop in which the products are for sale | |||
** there are no real products to buy | |||
** one of the 'products' will be realised as a wet lab project together with the heidelberg igem team. | |||
** | |||
**a radio event during the igem competition | |||
