SUMMARY:Art's Work in the Age of Biotechnology: Shaping Our Genetic Future Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Art’s Work in the Age of Biotechnology: Shaping Our Genetic Futures\nOctober 17\, 2019 – March 15\, 2020\nGregg Museum of Art & Design and NC State University Libraries\nAre scientists and engineers in charge of the future\, or do artists have a role\, too? What happens when artists appropriate the scientific tools and techniques of modern biotechnology?\nA joint exhibition between the Genetic Engineering and Society (GES) Center and NC State University Libraries. \n\nArt’s Work in the Age of Biotechnology: Shaping Our Genetic Futures (Art’s Work/Genetic Futures) is an art-science exhibit and symposium of artists\, scientists\, and humanities scholars\, led by the NC State University Libraries and the Genetic Engineering and Society (GES) Center\, held at the Gregg Museum of Art & Design\, the physical and digital display spaces of the University Libraries\, and the North Carolina Museum of Art (NCMA). These activities will elicit discussion about genetics in society through the lens of contemporary art and offer viewers new ways to think about their role in the genetic revolution. \nBy combining science and art and design\, the artists\, and artworks chosen for display contextualize genetic engineering by bringing it out of the lab and into public places; challenging viewer’s understandings about the human condition\, the material of our bodies\, and the consequences of biotechnology. The exhibits\, integrated curriculum\, and cross-campus dialogues will raise awareness and discussion about biotechnologies and their consequences in our society while drawing in art practices for reaching new communities. \nDetails and related events at go.ncsu.edu/artswork\n

SUMMARY:Public Perceptions of Enviro-Pig through Public Engagement Projects | GES Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:GES Colloquium Home  |  Fall 2019 MediaSite Live-Stream  |  YouTube Library (Past Colloquia) \nPublic Perceptions of Enviro-Pig through Public Engagement Projects\nPresented by students from GES/COM 508: Emerging Technologies & Society\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLast colloquium of fall semester! \n×\nAbstract\nThis presentation will explore public attitudes about the Enviro-Pig\, a new use of genetic engineering to reduce phosphorus content in hog waste streams. Through focus groups with students in both animal sciences and environmental science classes\, we sought to gauge public perception of GMOs and to see how participants view the Enviro-Pig as different from other genetically modified products. Because this new technology is in the initial stages of development\, gathering data related to public perception can help inform critical decisions made about the continued viability and application of this research. Additionally\, it is key to understand the ethical\, social\, and environmental implications of the Enviro-Pig. Following the public engagement portion of this project\, the findings and data were synthesized and delivered as a detailed report to the North Carolina Pork Producers (NCPP) and the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF). The report was also sent to the NPR Correspondent Dan Charles\, who reports on food and agriculture. Our expectation was that the data collected on public perceptions of Enviro-Pig will bring inclusive and diverse perspectives to the table\, informing NCPP and EDF of local opinions on the subject with the goal of both learning about and further engaging publics in discussing Enviro-Pig. \nRelated articles:\n\nEnviropig: A Bioengineered Pig That Excretes Fewer Pollutants\, Bjorn Carey\, Popular Science\, 29 Sept 2010\nGene-Altered “Enviropig” to Reduce Dead Zones?\, Anne Minard\, National Geographic\, 30 Mar 2010
