Subject: Analyzing the Human Genome


Chromosome 22--Alternative Analysis of the Human Genome
http://www.mindspring.com/~biography/introresults.html

What does the genome mean? Rival groups‹corporate and academic‹will offer
the first interpretations of the human genome this Thursday, February 15,
2001. Not, however, without dispute; neither can agree about the best
strategy for decoding.  In anticipation of this event, we wish to offer
another version.  

As nature and culture, technology and biology, are integrated in the
methods, practices, and metaphors of modern molecular biology, we need new
tools to engage in other interpretations.  Other maps to ourselves.  This
project will provide users with numerous other ways to organize and
understand how genes result from a set of social relations, personal
practices, and technical practices. This project re/produces these
interactions in a manner that the user can negotiate, to create a
multiplicity of mappings of biological knowledge.

We will also offer news updates, and full coverage of this event.  This
material will be available for immediate commentary and response as part of
our own ecological feedback project.

Please participate. Welcome to Chromosome 22 :

PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO ANYONE.
