Description
Android users - pinch and zoom does not work. The zoomed image does not sharpen. You have to click and get the full resolution FAA pixels provides to see the image sharpness of the file.
Sakura micron pigma pens on acid free paper. There are a number of ideas kicking about regarding how Life, and living cells first started. One intriguing idea suggests that the bubbles. micelles, vesicles and other microenvironments formed by surfactants and amphiphiles created the protected environment needed for proteins to assemble and fold, and for RNA and DNA to work their replicating magic.
A small enough bubble or container is also more likely to contain an enantiomeric excess of chiral molecules.
Some odd little notions on prebiological proto-life form the structure and theme of Origins of Species. Nothing is to scale, neither absolute nor relative scale. But there IS a bit of chirality.
The Title is a bit of a riff on Darwins Origin of Species. Instead of describing the variations within Life, and the Biology of diversity, we look back a bit further and try to imagine the underlying and unifying Physics behind living organisms.
Origins of Species would make a great Art gift, office art or Lab art for a Cell Biologist, Evolutionary Biologist or other persons interested in Biology and Cells.
