Work by the MRG at Goldsmiths.
Including: William Latham, Stephen Todd, Frederic Fol Leymarie, Miki Shaw, Ben Jefferys, Lawrence Kelley.At the core of this work is the idea of feeding DNA data sequences into a rich 3D form generator called FormGrow, to generate organic-looking 3D growth structures, creating an equivalence of the DNA mapped into an alternative multi-dimensional space.

May 3, 2007ABSTRACT
DNA is a programming language for living cells. The cell’s basic operating system, or genome, directs functions like growth and reproduction, energy utilization, and the production of useful compounds like ethanol or penicillin. With genetic engineering, new functions can be added to cells or broken metabolic pathways repaired. Until recently, genetic engineering has required the DNA molecule itself to be physically manipulated, a tedious and expensive process. Now, automatic DNA synthesis permits virtually any DNA code to be made from scratch, opening up genetic engineering to anyone with a computer and a credit card.

This DNA replication song set to Backstreet Boys is truly cringe worthy!
Oh, how I love bi-olo-gy (yeah yeah yeah)
It’s better than chemistry
And next time I have to go pee (I know)
what’s happening inside of me

Interview with Leah Sparks, VP Business Development of DNA Direct from Doug Cress on Vimeo.
San Francisco-based DNA Direct* has created a web- and phone-based virtual genetics clinic. Genetic testing results can be complex, and inmost cases, do not provide definitive “yes†or “no†answers. DNA Direct focuses on personalized test result interpretation and supportive services.
