Today's Data Problem
Server Farms
High energy consumption
Huge CO2 emissions
Our Regenerative Solution
DNA data storage
1 million times more dense
Carbon absorbing organisms
What if we could store data and capture carbon at the same time?
Combining biotechnology and design, we create data storage applications in plants. These carbon absorbing collaborators help us to unlock cleaner, regenerative methods for data management.
We take any digital data, like JPEGs and MP3s and translate from binary to DNA.
Then using synthetic biology, we create plants that can store data and capture CO2.
We're growing a community of scientists, creatives and plant people to develop regenerative futures.
GYOC is a team of technologists, scientists and creatives developing ethical and environmentally focused research since 2018.
Our work has been recognised by the United Nations and EU Starts Prize, and presented at major events internationally.
Our research-based, design-led approach explores how clean data solutions can enable futures where exponential increases in the world's data can regenerate the environment.
