I was not the only one captivated by the film – at the following party, we discussed how refreshing it was to truly enjoy, learn and ...

The 1st Bio:Fiction Science, Art & Filmfestival aims at attracting public awareness to synthetic biology and its ramifications for our daily life in the future. Synthetic biology is the design and construction of new biological systems not found in nature. Synthetic biology aims at creating new forms of life for practical purposes. By applying engineering principles to biology scientists will be able to design life forms much different from breeding or traditional genetic engineering. We want to encourage filmmakers to share their cinematic visions of a present or future society shaped by synthetic biology. What is your view on a world living with synthetic life forms? Your approach is up to you - the filmmaker, scientists or artist - the entries can be on science, fiction, or science fiction. We welcome regular short film, animation or documentary film. The main criteria is that synthetic biology has to be reflected somehow in the work, but how you do it is up to you. Prizes will be awarded in the following categories: Bio:Fiction Award – Short Fiction Bio:Fiction Award – Documentary Film Bio:Fiction Award - Animation Online-Audience Award Special Award of the Jury (the prize money in each category will be announced soon) On http://www.bio-fiction.com you will find more useful and inspiring information on synthetic biology, the entry form and the regulations of the filmfestival. The nominated films will be presented in public at the festival event in Vienna, Austria, in May 2011. Finally, a Bio:Fiction Award ceremony will build the highlight of the festival. The deadline for film entries is the 15th of July 2010 There is no entry fee for submitting films. http://www.bio-fiction.com Best wishes, the Bio:Fiction team Markus Schmidt Albert Beckmann Camillo Meinhart
