COLLABORATORY: ON THE ASSEMBLY OF THINGS
A collaboratory that monitors and contributes to the ramifications of synthetic biology and nanotechnology. It explores "human practices": the ethics and ontology of these two domains beyond the standard models of social implications, ELSI, or so-called Mode 2 Knowledge production. We start with a series of diagnostic distinctions, elaborated within an evolving diagnostic of equipmental platforms (Synthetic Anthropos: Designs for Human Practices). TAO includes projects, a blog, working papers, and connections to other venues in synthetic biology and nanotechnology.
