The seventh instalment of Marionet Digital follows other digital art objects produced by Marionet, focused on themes related to science. In the case of ‘Genomic Mechanics’ we reflect on some of the mechanisms associated with genomic medicine, namely the tools with which it is communicated to patients and society in general.
The video begins a reflection on the impact that genomic medicine may have on people’s lives and addresses the figure of the genetic counsellor, mandatory by law in Portugal, in relation to patients in the context of Medical Genetics.
Marionet Digital aims to be a space for artistic expression, created in formats designed for digital communication. The body of work produced so far, designed for this context, is centred on health science themes.
