DIYbio and Personalized Medicine
Andrew Hessel, one of the cofounders of the company Pink Army Cooperative, an open source project for the development of new, personalized breast caner treatments . There is a nice video on youtube, where Andrew Hessel talks about the future of synthetic biology and also about the Pink Army: Andrew Hessel on Youtube.

Bacteria for personalized Medicine and other interesting iGEM ideas
Some iGEM-Teams from 2008 and 2009 worked on using bacteria for personalized medicine. The idea to put them into the human gut and let them react to either internal or external stimuli has led to some interesting wet-lab projects.
Probably most famous in the iGEM-context is the work from Taipei 2008 (have also a look on wiki design an figures): [1]
Caltech 2008 took a similar approach: [2]
Also interesting: the bacto-joghurt idea by MIT 2008: [3]
You sould also have a brief look on those projects here, especially on the kind of idea they focus on. All of them are really special in their way:
Edinburgh 2009 on the detection of land mines: [4]
Calgary 2009 and their human practices project on a Second Life Synhetic Biology world: [5]
Tokyo Tech 2009 on terraforming Mars (very cool idea): [6]
Virginia 2009 on water cleaning: [7]
Tokyo Tech 2008 on an E. coli based touch display: [8]
Furthermore, you should have a look at some team presentations. Besides the finalists presentations from 2008 and 2009 that are interesting anyways, the following ones have been really cool and fun: Tokyo Tech 2009, Calgary 2009
Have fun! I'm looking forward to see you soon in Heidelberg! More information is about to come in this blog, soon.

Scienceblogs on Synbio
Interesting read about Synbio. There is an article featuring Tuur van Balen's work

New Scientist CultureLab
Art meets science: What do you think of it all?
Over the next few days we'll be publishing a series of articles looking at art-science collaborations, and to kick things off we've set up a quick survey. (New Scientist)
Art meets science: A curator who wants to open windows
Art meets science: Aesthetics, politics and metaphysics
Art meets science: Physicist in a cultural landscape
Art meets science: Speaking a lingua digica
Art meets science: Catch up with the state of the art

Michiko Nitta: Extreme Green Guerrillias
I think we have mentioned the project already, but give it a look. It is illustrating the implications of extreme sustainable lifestyle, utilising genetic modifications and more.

Bio-Fiction Film Festival
There is a synbio film festival in Vienna. The deadline ( 15. July) is perfect because it's one week after our final presentation. Should be interesting for some of you.
Have a look.

Design will save the world
Inhabitat.com is an online plattform for ecological und biological projects in architecture, design, technology and art. Inventions from all over the world are presented here!
It is not directly something about synthetic biology, but you can still find a lot of nice and inspiring stuff for your work.

(re)Performing the Posthuman
http://reperformingtheposthuman.yolasite.com/
21/22 may 2010 The programme will include keynotes by Rosemary Klich, Jennifer Parker- Starbuck and Stelarc, paper presentations, performances, video showings, a small exhibition space and a gallery in Second Life.
About: "...models of subjectivity that call into question the humanist concept of the body as a biological entity, and as the "container" of the human subject"... "drawing attention to inconsistencies between the theory's wider cultural implications and socio-political realities, others insisting on the possibility of a biological definition of humanness"... "It is therefore now an apposite moment to revisit the idea of the posthuman, and posthumanist approaches to performance art and theatre. The aim of (re)Performing the Posthuman is to create an opportunity to do precisely this and to discuss in what form (if any) non-humanist concepts of the body and subjectivity may still be useful as a conceptual and analytical framework in performance arts."

Craig Venter on DNA and the sea
<videoflash type=youtube>E5X6Qy772YU|437|236</videoflash>
Craig Venter takes a break from his epic round-the-world expedition to talk about
the millions of genes his team has discovered so far in its quest to map the ocean’s
biodiversity.
Craig venter surveys the genetic biodiversity. In history surveying often meant taking possession.

DIYbio
Basierend auf das ArtScienceBangalore/Project des iGEM Wettbewerbs wurde eine kleine Forschung über "do-it-your-self" möglichkeiten im eigenen Atelier ein kleines Labor einzurichten mit dem man Biologie "hacken" kann. Bei der suche nach Informationen bin ich auf folgende Internetseiten gestoßen die sich damit befassen:
Eine Seite ist die Amateur-Bio-Hacker Seite DIYbio [10]
In der Stanford School of Medicine - Undersanding Genetics findet man Videos zu "Do-It-Yourself Strawberry DNA" [11]
Auf der nächsten Seite findet man interessante Artikel mit denen sich das ArtScienceBangalore Project befasst hat zu den Themen:
Art and Politics,Art,Science,Ethics,Design & Technology,Synthetic Biology,General Design Links usw. [12]
Wenn Salmonellen Leuchten!! Die OSAKA Gruppe präsentiert ihre Arbeiten.[13]
Synthetic Biology Software Suite (SynBioSS)
The Synthetic Biology Software Suite (SynBioSS) is a software suite for the generation, storing, retrieval and quantitative simulation of synthetic biological networks. The SynBioSS DS is a set of multiscale algorithms for modeling and simulating reaction networks, such as gene regulatory networks.
