Based at the University of Leiden in the Netherlands, The Arts & Genomics Centre is interested in expanding the "public debate on (future) goals, means, possibilities and use of results of genomics, from the specific point of view of bio-genetic art." The homepage provides ample information about their most recent initiatives, which have included a symposium on food, art and science and a video on their VivoArts program, which attempts to bring together biology and various contemporary arts. Moving on, the "Research" section of the site includes project documents and proposals that deal with their representational space program and the "Imagining Genomics" initiative. The site is rounded out by a collection of links to other germane sites and online resources.
