Five
of my favorite links on the topic of genetic arts:
The
Drawing Lab:
http://www2.evansville.edu/drawinglab/
I am absoloutely amazed at the site's effictiveness to teach drawing...I
have used books before to learn , but this website was teh best
tool I have found so far!! Check it out!!
http://www.geneculture.org/gallery/zoosemiotics.shtml
There are a few interesting images on this site. My favorite was
the Zoosemiotics one because it plays on the reverse copying that
occurs during replication of DNAthe reflection in the water in reversed
like RNA.

Really interesting pictureI liked the whole "we're all the
same theme". I think genomic art is one of the best ways to
portray that. This also reminded me of the movie GATTACA where the
character stretches his legs b/c his genetics didn't make him tall
enough.

VERY VERY VERY nice!!! if you skipped everything, read this one
please! I was blown away by the assertion the artist/author madeI
never thought about this!!!!

Just on case someone hasn't seen the movie I was talking about aboveit's
really goodI recommend it especially if you're interested in this
classit's all about how we're gonna use genetic technology in the
future. I personally like the movie poster a lot!!!!!! very interestingjust
in case you missed the subtle pointGATTACA is only using the four
bases of DNA ;)
