The theatre project: Re-engineering life
Where does life begin? Do we feel like working with living creatures when handling bacterial cell cultures? Where is the difference between natural and artificial?
These were some of the questions we were faced with when agreeing to participate in the in the Freiburg participation in a Europe-wide theater project called “re-engineering life”. It was aimed at the risks and benefits of synthetic biology and performed by a group of humanities students collaborating with directors and researchers from the university of Freiburg.
New aspects of all days work
We were four iGEM members in the first discussion they invited us to. And we were really surprised to get to know a group of students who was not only interested in scientific facts and in our participation in iGEM but also in our personal attitude towards ethical implications of science. From the questions and answers asked and given it was obvious that both groups came from totally different backgrounds. So it was the more exciting to explain ones own thoughts in a language understandable for all of us.
Communicating science
The project culminated in a week-end of theatre and public talks all dedicated to synthetic biology and its impact on society. We were invited to take part in a speed-dating like disccusion with interested visitors. And we met not only visitors but also some members of the iGEM teams Tübingen and Darmstadt with whom we passed and interesting evening.
