Description
The world is in dire need of new design thinking. We need interdisciplinary teams who are designing not just for humans, but for the rest of the living planet. Over the last seven years, Biodesign Challenge (BDC) has mobilized a worldwide community of artists, designers, and biologists, who are imagining, creating, and critiquing the future of biotechnology, a technology that is becoming more and more prevalent in our everyday lives, and design. Selected from hundreds of artworks and designs from the BDC competition, this book is a compilation of projects and ideas that are influencing the emerging field of biodesign. In their own words, pioneers and BDC alumni explore the future of biodesign and its role in shaping people's identities, cultures, and relationships with the living environment.
