Interesting to see: The Richard Dimbleby Lecture 2007: ‘A DNA Driven World’ by Dr. J. Craig Venter. I found it on Youtube in 5 parts (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). A transcript of his lecture can be found here.

Edit:

• TED Talks: ‘Craig Venter: On the verge of creating synthetic life‘.
• Famed geneticist creating life form that turns CO2 to fuel
