I heard this on the radio last night. Folding DNA into artful structures...Happy Faces and Map of the Americas - that sort of thing. The funny thing about it is, it only served to remind me what poverty of creation we have today. We have no Renaissance heroes, people who would simultaneously generate great original art, and convey great, even innovative, technical prowess.
Get me a non-referencing DNA Mona Lisa and then we'll talk.
