Synthetic biology is a new approach to designing biology by manipulating DNA. This series of field reports brings together biologists, artists, sociologists, philosophers, and architects to share current work and discuss future possibilities for design, architecture, innovation, and danger in the century of biology. Presentations by Fernan Federici (Plant Biologist, University of Cambridge UK) and Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg (Artist, Design Fellow, Synthetic Aesthetics).

Organized by David Benjamin, GSAPP and the Architecture Bio-Synthesis Project at Columbia.
