Super Cell is a project being developed for the [http://2010.igem.org iGEM competition 2010] in collaboration with the iGEM Team Heidelberg. Super Cell is a fictional online supermarket offering speculative products which are all based on Synthetic Biology. By putting already existing and far-out in the future applications next to each other in the webshop, the projects aims to improve public awareness about Synthetic Biology and at the same time foster a debate on how we want to see it manifested in our everyday lives. | Super Cell is a project being developed for the [http://2010.igem.org iGEM competition 2010] in collaboration with the iGEM Team Heidelberg.

Implications of Biotechnologies are usually discussed on a philosophical, ethical, legal or maybe religious level. All these areas share a pretty abstract perspective on the matter. By designing speculative products and presenting them in a familiar environment such as a webshop, we aim to create tangible manifestations which allow specialists and non-specialists to engage in a discussion about desired and undesired implications of Synthetic Biology. If we -as a society- want to influence how this powerful science will affect our future lives, this kind of discussion is essential to have now. | Implications of Biotechnologies are usually discussed on a philosophical, ethical, legal or maybe religious level.
