Your DNA is everywhere. Who gets to read it—and what story will they tell?
In this episode of Moonshot Radio, I speak with artist and biohacker Heather Dewey-Hagborg, known for reconstructing human faces from discarded DNA. Her groundbreaking project Stranger Visions exposed how easily genetic material can be collected from everyday objects, and how quickly it can be transformed into data, prediction, and identity.
We explore the expanding world of biosurveillance: how our bodies—DNA, microbes, facial features, fingerprints, even breath and heat—are increasingly tracked, analyzed, and categorized by governments and corporations.
In this conversation, we discuss:
Forensic DNA phenotyping and the rise of “DNA mugshots”
Chelsea Manning and the politics of algorithmic identity
Biobanks, newborn blood spots, and the hidden afterlives of our biological samples
Genetic prediction of behavior—and its use in courts
The risks of eugenics, “designer genetics,” and data-driven purity narratives
Whether biotechnology will deepen inequality—or help us reconnect
This episode asks urgent questions about privacy, agency, and control in an age where biology itself has become legible.
What does identity mean when your genetic blueprint can be read, stored, sold, and interpreted?

Beschrijving

Moonshot Radio is a show for people who believe the future can be bigger, weirder, and better than what we’ve been told.
Hosted by Linda Du, a globetrotting investor, founder and adventurer, the show dives into the ideas, technologies, and unconventional thinkers shaping the world ahead. From AI misfits and out-of-this world founders to radical thinkers and identity hackers, every episode asks: What happens next, and what does it mean to be human in the age of technology?
If you’re obsessed with the edge of innovation, or the cultural shifts defining our century, you’ll feel right at home.
