− | At iGEM we believe societal considerations should be upfront and integrated throughout the design and execution of synthetic biology projects. “Human Practices” refers to iGEM teams’ efforts to actively consider how the world affects their work and the work affects the world. Through your Human Practices activities, your team should demonstrate how you have thought carefully and creatively about whether your project is responsible and good for the world. We invite you to explore issues relating (but not limited) to the ethics, safety, security, and sustainability of your project, and to show how this exploration feeds back into your project purpose, design and execution.

HUMAN PRACTICE
One hundred years ago, Oscar Wilde’s rose, the one stained with the nightingale’s blood, was thrown into the gutter. But today, by blending art and science, we UCAS-China team picked the rose back again.
In the original story, even 130 years ago, Oscar Wilde had pointed out the public’s misconception and improper attitude of art and science sharply. Even today, science and art, seems to get into more narrow paths. To make difference with our effort, we addressed three major issues about blending science and art and tried to give our answer respectively: (ii) Acceptance and involvement and (iii) Assimilation and changes of society tendency.
(i) Eliminating the bias and exploring the concept
Refining all the wisdom points sparked during interviews.
. with scientists from Chinese Academy of Science and
collaborations.
.with artists from Art and Science Research Center, we explored deeper insight indicating imagination and interaction.
(ii) Acceptance and involvement
How to make more and more people accept the concept? We sought wider platforms from nationwide competition to Internet.
. , in order to make our voice heard by more people outside the lab.
A survey we did among high school students.
indicated that the idea has been well-accepted among young generation, but lacking resources and chances to get involvement limited their creation. Hence, we created
Orpheus.
., which is a software could involve everyone in art-and-science practice. Orpheus transforms sounds chosen by users into light signals and simulate the unique roses which our E. coli would create in response. Try to create your own rose!
(iii) Assimilation and changes of society tendency
