Lieven Scheire

Neveneffecten is een cabaretviertal bestaande uit Jonas Geirnaert, Lieven Scheire, Koen De Poorter en Jelle De Beule. Jonas en Lieven zijn in het echte leven dubbele neven: de moeder van de ene is de zus van de vader van de andere; en de vader van de ene is de broer van de moeder van de andere. Dubbele neven dus, vandaar de naam Neveneffecten. In november 2003 reden Neveneffecten in een geleende Nissan Micra 372 km noordwaarts naar het Groninger Studenten Cabaret Festival. Twee dagen later keerden ze terug – toegegeven: in dezelfde Nissan Micra – maar ook met de hoofdprijs en een geweldig juryrapport. De voorstelling groeide van 30 naar 90 minuten, en De Morgen vond de première van Zinloos Geweldig de beste comedvoorstelling van 2004. Neveneffecten tourde vervolgens door Vlaanderen en Nederland, maar niet altijd in de Nissan Micra want Jonas zijn ma had hem soms zelf nodig.

Asteroid: Mission Extreme takes audiences on an epic journey to discover the potential that asteroids present to facilitate manned space travel.

Human genetics is one of the most exciting fields in science at the moment. Not only does it advance exponentially fast, it is also a field of study that will very soon affect our daily lives. We will all have to deal with the possibilities and technologies that human genetics have to offer, today and in the coming years. Quite a few questions and dilemmas still have to be answered by us. Do I want to know everything that can be found out from my DNA? And who is allowed to use and read my genetic code? My doctor? The police? The chef of my favourite restaurant? Also, what genetic technologies do I want to use? Do I want to clone my dog, choose my children’s eye colour, or genetically modify them to give them extra talents? Do I want others in society to be allowed to do that? The current and future possibilities of human genetics are simply overwhelming. They are both promising and frightening, chilling and delightful.

In this show, Lieven Scheire introduces this new superhero of technology in an entertaining and accessible way. You'll get a glimpse of how it all works, what it can already do, and what it will be capable of in the future.
