Ginkgo Bioworks

Job Description

Spend three months at Ginkgo working at the intersection of your creative discipline and synthetic biology. We believe synthetic biology has the potential to playfully disrupt traditional ways of thinking. For this year’s Ginkgo Creative Residency, we invite submissions that engage with synthetic biology through PLAY. Can a playful application build new relations between humans and nature that cultivate comfort, joy, and dignity? Whether your practice centers art, design, performance and/or community engagement, we invite you to submit a project proposal for a project based in our labs that engages with this years’ theme on PLAY. You’re someone who is able to bring a creative and critical lens to the brief, has experience building relationships and collaborating outside of your field, and is able to adapt in a new setting. Applications close on July 30th, 2022 at 11:59pm (GMT-04:00). The residency will start October 12th, 2022, and run through January 27th, 2023.
