It should be pointed out that most US-based oligo synthesis companies will screen orders for potentially "dangerous" sequences. I recall watching an IDT (idtdna.com) video on CRISPR that brought this to light.
As far as I can tell from the Indiegogo video, Amino appears to be a simple bioreactor that includes competent cells + some sort of plasmid to express genes related to bioluminescence -- am I missing anything else? Pretty compact and neat; I would have loved to play with one of these as a child.

Enumerating badness. Schneier would not be pleased. I wouldn't put it past someone to create a mold with a complex life-cycle which eventually enters a form that secretes cocaine.
