The document discusses Terreform One's Bio City Map project. The project aimed to visualize world population distribution in 2110 with 11 billion people through artworks incorporating genetically modified bioluminescent E. coli bacteria. The project team worked with artists, biologists, architects and urban planners to think about addressing issues of poverty, social justice, energy, food and more through the built environment. The Bio City Map was part of an architecture exhibition and inspired the team to further creative collaboration and modeling of sustainable population futures.
