=== '''May 15th''' ===
 
-
This was the day we officially started working on our iGEM 2009 project.
 
-
This week was solely reserved for introducing us to the unfamiliar territory of what we were getting into.
+
==Ideas==
-
We discussed two 'Claire Pentacost' Readings-
+

-
'''Beyond Face:'''

* [[Ideas for Bacteria.]]
-
[http://www.clairepentecost.org/lab%20of%20symbolic_text.htm Critical Inventory of BioArt ].  
+
* Facilitate a group of children to design their 'perfect creature' through visual/tactile media and then draw from these experiences and ideas to build another structure.
-
'''The gist of these readings:'''
+
*Basic information on micro biology-synthetic biology becomes accessible in the forms of brochures/charts/posters in the team's work space.
-
Artists work with the symbolic.The artist's consent to work and learn in public is important.
+
== Workshop ==
-
We discussed the political and cultural implications of Scientific Authority.
 
-
We also looked at Tuur Van Balen's :
 
-
'''The Urban Geography Project:'''
 
-
[http://www.tuurvanbalen.com/projects/urbanbiogeography Urban Geography project]
 
-
Most of the ideas today, dealt with the use of bacteria as:
 
-
a) A sensor or Reactor - (to inputs,emotions,light etc)

-Is there any way in which we can look at bacteria from a purely non-symbiotic / non-anthropomorphic viewpoint?

-
-Can we use our technological "progress" to give a non-selfish gift back to our ecological siblings?

It is helpful to have an idea of how the other teams are progressing. So, if anyone comes across interesting iGEM team wikis/sites - please put up the links here.

-Can we replace financial transactions with Bacteria?

We put down all the information that we had about learnt about geosmin. We then put down the various paths we could take in order to produce the results we wanted.
+
-
This gave us a dummy model of how we could achieve the final result.
+
-
 
+
-
We divided ourselves into two groups and came up with '''two distinct approaches''' of representing the same model.This exercise cleared certain doubts we had, but also raised a lot of questions.
