Possible Projects
""Project: Hamsterdam""
Inspired by our home cities media presence in "The Wire" and it's long history
as the opium den of the eastern sea ports. Team: Baltimore-US has envisioned a
longterm project/goal of creating additional biopharmaceuticals. It began with
a joke.. could we engineer Coca Coli, using a process like that utilized for
Kiesling's project with Artemisinin, could we engineer a e.coli that could
produce Cocaine and put an end to the drug war.
carrying that logic further it was suggested that we could do the same for opium
/morphine, putting an end to the funding of afganistani/asian terrorist organizations.
I recommended we begin by attempting contact of Alexander Shulgin, creator of MDMA,
one of the world's leading experts on the biomolecular construction of chemicals.
Steve also suggested creating a biomachine/circuit that could be implanted for homeostatic
release within the body. Tom reminded him that too much opiate could stop a heart.
